Poll: How long did it take you to finish the NCLEX?

Published

Just curious, How long did it take to finish your exam?

75 questions in about 45 minutes

Specializes in Peds/Neo CCT,Flight, ER, Hem/Onc.

I took the 2 day scantron test back in the day when we used lanterns to light our way. I was the first to finish, BOTH DAYS, in a building with several hundred testers in it. I felt every pair of eyes boring into my back as I walked out the door. Felt like a "perp walk"!

it took me 3 and 1/2 hours...had 265 questions....i didnt pass and waiting to take it again but i HIGHLY suggest finding a practice test with 265 questions just in case bc the most questions i did in one sitting while practicing was 200 and was not prepared to take a 265 question test

Just finished my exam, 75 Q's which took me 1 hour 45 mins. Worried as I didn't have any math for meds Q's?? :uhoh3:

Just found out that I indeed passed my NCLEX exam! My advise is to take your time to read each question carefully.

NCLEX-PN 85 questions plus the intro questions that count against your time. Took my time and finished in one hour and 40 min. Felt totally sick to my stomach when I left the testing center, did the PVT trick and shows that I passed :p

Took me almost 2hrs for the 75 questions including tutorial. Good job for those who took their test in a very short time and passed.

I took mine last month, and it stopped at 75 questions, it took me 1 hour and 45 minutes.
