I guess I'll find out next month...

I tested today, NCLEX-RN... I was so nervous going into it, but I knew I was prepared so nothing to worry about! :) Including the tutorial, it took me 9 minutes to take 75 questions. I know it's really fast but I read extremely fast and a lot of the answers stood out like a sore thumb :up: The ones I didn't know 100% I did my best guess and moved on. I've always been a fast test taker, even in nursing school. I always ended up waiting and hour and a half plus on every exam. I don't know my official results yet, but I should find out in the morning on my BON website. I tried the Pearson Vue trick and I got the good pop up every time. Hope I really did pass :D

230 questions------2 hours----------including a break---

I took a little more than one hour to complete the NCLEX-PN in 2005, and ended up passing with the minimum of 85 questions.

I spent approximately one hour taking the NCLEX-RN in 2010 and passed with 75 questions.

Thanks iamblessed and pitxurri!!! :) I'm going to check my BON now!!! Hopefully I passed!!

Just found out that I passed my NCLEX!!!!! YAY!!!:nurse:

1 hr and 20 minutes for 75 questions and passed.

Don't remember how long it took but remember the headache I got way before even finishing.
