    SopranoKris replied to RNsRWe's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thanks for the updated numbers! I've been using the old statistic of 85%. So, now we know, as of last year, that it's now around 82%. I'll be interested to see if it goes up in 2015 as nursing...

    SopranoKris replied to LM NY's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    No. No one at the testing center can give you any info about your score. Your exam is scored once the day you take it. Then it runs through a separate scoring review after 24 hours. That's why your...

    To answer OP's question: It's not a matter of having the last question wrong or right. It's a matter of being above the passing line within the 90% confidence interval to determine if you've passed...
