76 questions on the NCLEX?

Published

I just took my NCLEX today and it shut off after 76 questions. I had a lot of select all that apply questions and could not really tell a general pattern as far as if the questions were getting harder. I walked away feeling that I failed for sure. Is there a chance I could have passed?

alot of people feel the same way after taking the nclex. stay confident, and think positive. you may be surprised at your results!! :) :up:

I was horrified when I got to question #76. I left convinced I had failed. I did make it to the car before I started to cry (accomplishment) !! When it shut off at 76 you could hear my ego deflating like a birthday balloon! My point is, I think everyone leaves feeling like they failed. Keep your head up, it ain't over till its over! I was so relieved when I got my results today. This board really helped me when I was freaking out, so I wanted to give back a little and share some words of encouragement. What a wonderful network of amazing people I have found in allnurses.com!

Congrats!!!

Good job

congrats i hope to pass this year
