76 questions OMG!

Published

I took the NCLEX today and I was hoping that I would not be in there all day. I selected the answer for #75 and clicked next. Then another question popped up. Well I figured I'd keep chipping away. Imagine my surprise when the doggone thing shut off after #76. I am really not sure if I got the last question correct.

Everyone says the number of questions does not matter. However, I can't help but wonder in this case. If I was at passing level wouldn't it have shut off at #75? Why give one more question to torture and mess with my mind? In this case wouldn't it make sense to assume that the last question determines pass or fail?

I am trying so hard to stay calm. So many people were praying for me today. I don't know how I would show my face if I don't pass.

The number really doesn't matter, same goes to whether you answer last question wrong or right. Hang in there. Good luck

Did anyone else get 76 questions? Do you feel you got the last question wrong and still passed? I'm sitting on pins and needles until I check the results tomorrow.

76 questions, well that's a number I haven't heard of before :) It may have been a glitch or something, don't worry, it's not an indicator that you did not pass!

Good luck :)
