I took my first NCLEX-RN exam on May 26, 2017 and stopped at 150 questions and I FAILED. Most questions were SATA and about Health Promotion & Maintenance. I used the PVT and got the bad pop-up. 7 days after I took the test, I received the test result in the mail and I was below the passing standard with the Safety & Infection Control, and Basic Care and Comfort Content Areas, and the rest are Near & Above the passing standard. I reapplied but it took me a year before I was able to retake due to personal stuff going on. Last Friday, July 13, 2018 I retook the test and it stopped at 75. I was so nervous because of the fact that the questions seemed to be so easy but very tricky that about 50 questions are SATA. I think I already failed, the questions are mostly about Basic Care & Comfort, Health Promotion & Maintenance.. I was crying after the exam because I was expecting to get questions about Physiological Needs or drug calculations or diseases and stuff.. but none of those things was asked. I will be waiting to get the mail this week, and I won't do the PVT again because it'll feel more devastating this time if I get the bad pop-up. So if you're one of those who failed with 75 questions, please feel free to share your exam experience and help a fellow out. Thank you very much & I promise to update once I get my result.

Do you have quick result option? You can try. Maybe you passed already!!!
I took it in California. One thing I don't like about the state is they make everything special that even for NCLEX, they don't give us the luxury of having quick-results unlike any other states. Thanks for the reply though, I really hope you're right!
