Hello all, I know this topic has been discussed to death! But i need to express my feelings about this. I just took NCLEX for the 2nd time this morning. The first time I was a complete wreck. Anxiety got the best of me and I rushed through the test. It finally stopped at #113 and I failed. This time around, I read through the questions thoroughly, took a break, didn't rush and answered the questions the best I could and it stopped at #97. I actually spent a little more time at the testing center about 30min more than the first time. I felt good during the test and afterwards. But this time I remembered the last question and looked it up at the bookstore and found out I got it wrong! Now I know that it usually isn't the best indicator of whether I passed or failed but, I realize that the last question was a recall/recognition question! Does this mean that I was below the level of minimum competency and that last question was enough to determine that I failed? I had quite a few priority questions and felt good about answering them, but when I found out about the last question I'm starting to actually believe that I failed... Also I've read that if the test shuts off ONLY at 75 or ONLY at 265 then it DOESN'T matter if you got the last question right or wrong. I only made it to 97. What do you guys think? PLEEEAAASSSE reply. Sincerely, MIKE
