The odds are in your favor of passing but it is possible to fail at 75. I am living proof! I failed at 75, failed at 131 and passed at 75! Good luck!

Congrats!!! :balloons: :balloons:

I totally agree with you. I was told that if you were in OK to poor standing for testing, to do about 5000-7500 questions before the NCLEX. The first time I took the NCLEX, I probably did around 4000 questions and I failed at 75. The second time I took the NCLEX I did about 5000 questions and I failed at 137. The third time I followed Suzanne's plan, learned how to understand the question whether I got it right or wrong, learned how to choose the best answer even if I don't fully know all that is asking. I probably did around 3000-4000 questions and I passed at 75! The number of questions is not as important and FULLY understanding what is being asked and KNOWING what to do as the nurse. Good luck!

I have passed at 75 and failed at 75! I recently passed and felt confident that I did pass when it shut off at 75. The first time I took it, I knew it wasn't my time because my nerves got in the way!

I followed Suzanne's plan after I failed twice on the NCLEX-RN. It worked for me because it gave me structure and focus. It is a very doable plan and I just found out I passed on Saturday! I highly recommend it.

Thank you everyone! This site helped me get through everything! Have a wondeful holiday!

I FINALLY can say that I PASSED the NCLEX-RN (on the third try!). :monkeydance: I took my test on 12/21 and found out today through Quick Results. I stopped at 75 questions. I had a TON of priority, select all that apply, etc. Suzanne's plan worked! Suzanne, if you read this, THANK YOU! Your plan helped me focus and gave me the self-confidence. It really is about 60% knowledge and 40% faith and self confidence! This time was different because I shunned ALL negative thoughts and actually believed that I could do this! Thank you for all the support over the last 7 months! You guys ROCK! I am SOOOOOO EXCITED! This is going to be an AWESOME Christmas! :monkeydance: :monkeydance: :monkeydance:

Just curious to know if anyone bought Mosby's online CAT. I bought it the other day and anxious to use it. I have been using Saunder's and doing pretty well with that. I wanted to use something before the NCLEX to give me an idea on how I will do (this will be my 3rd time, argh!). IS it a good review? Is it pretty accurate on how you will do?

Good luck! Keep ONLY positive thoughts. You WILL pass! 3rd time is a charm...I'll be taking it for the 3rd time in a few weeks! :pumpiron:

PA is unlimited. I am about to take it for the 3rd time in November. I'm following Suzanne's plan and KNOW I will pass this time!

I'm sorry! If it makes you feel any better, you're not alone. I ALSO just found out that I FAILED for the 2nd time! Unbelievable! The first time, I failed at 75, this time I failed at 137. I don't know what I did wrong. I am not joking when I tell you that from the first time I took my NCLEX (june 2006) until now, I have done over 8500 questions. I exhausted my books. I thought I knew it. I did well in school, awesome in clinical. I'm stunned but I'm over it. At this point, I am mad and determined to beat this test. That's all it is, beating the test! I have started Suzanne's 6 week plan and will follow it exactly and pass on November 15! You will pass! (I always thought a 3rd time is a charm!)

Congrats! :biggringi That's wonderful news! I hope I will be as happy as you soon! :monkeydance:

I can't take the waiting anymore! It seems worse the second time around! I keep checking the BON site and no update (although it only updates once a day at 7AM Monday-Friday). They don't do Quick Results, so that option is out. I called yesterday and today and they tell me that no license has been issued "yet." I don't know what to think! I got the same answers a few months back when I failed the first time! So now I am at the point where I am assuming the worst and hoping for the best! (I am horrible and already filled out a re-application (i had an extra from the 1st time) and bid on Saunder's Comp review on Ebay!). The first time I took the NCLEX-RN I failed at 75 and this time it cutoff around 135-145. It was way harder and lots of delagation, triage, teaching, 2 math). Any experience with the PA board of nursing and the time it takes to notify with results? I have heard that MOST people hear within 2 days on the BON site. Others have waited more than 2 days. Argh! Any advice to calm me down?!

Good luck!! We're in the same boat. I took the NCLEX-RN on the 19th and no word yet. It was my second time taking it. The first time was bad and cutoff at 75. This time it cutoff around 135-145 (don't remember). I know I got the last few correct but who knows! The waiting is terrible and just not fair! PA doesn't particpate in quick results, ugh!!!

Good luck!!! Tell me about it...I took the NCLEX-RN on the 19th and no word yet...To be continued!
