When that screen went blank and turned blue after 75 questions, I thought I did so bad the test just stop. But, by the grace of God, I passed:w00t:

It took me 45 minutes for 75 questions. Don't ask me how, I was trying to "pace" myself so I wouldn't run out of time. When it shut off I went to the proctor and she asked me if I needed to use the bathroom. I said no, it shut off. She gave me a strange look and so I left. I cried all the way home. No way did I pass. NO WAY! I had ruined my life, etc...
I passed. I find it odd that the machine and the test are that smart they can pass me that quick and easy, but I have been doing great for 10 years, so be it.

Yep i had 75 for the NCLEX-RN and passed the first time. Sorry Tazzi,, but you arent alone. If its any consolation,, when i did my LPN boards i did pen and paper test and it was the most draining day of my life. Thats when LPNs did 1 day and RN's did 2 day testing.
75 questions.....it just doesn't seem fair.....I knew the boards were computerized and it wasn't over two days anymore but 75..........

I remember when the computer shut off I was thinking nooooooooo I've so much more to tell you!! Stupid really but I just thought that's it?? 1.15 hrs & you've decided?? I studied so hard & you didn't even have me use the calculator, interpret an ECG slip or ask me anything about insulin peak times?? LOL!!
