120 questions...

Nursing Students NCLEX

Hey guys, I'm convinced that I failed. I got the last 3 questions wrong for sure, and the last 2 questions were knowledge-based questions (below the border) and got them wrong. Got 120 questions and shut off.

got 2 math questions, like 3-4 select all that apply, 5-7 med questions... what do you guys think?

There's really no telling whether you passed or not. Everyone has the same feeling once they leave the testing center. People pass at 75 and fail at 75. Some get 265 and pass while others don't. Just pray and wait till your name is posted online. Good luck.

NO way to tell.... My friend took it the other day and turned off at 120 questions.. And she passed!! I heard that selct all that apply are high up there so the more you got the better you did. I had 5 select all that apply and I passed. Good Luck and stay positive!

Stay positive. I agree with the previous comment, just because you didnt answer the last few questions correctly doesnt mean you failed. What counts it how you did overall. Remember almost everyone walks away feeling as if they failed.

No does not mean you failed... I know for a fact I answered the last two questions wrong! I found out I passed today. It is a myth....

I'm incredulous. I don't remember any of my 76 questions. Except one that is still dogging me, but I'll look it up someday.

How do you all remember? Such good nurses you are gonna be! :balloons:

When I got to question 74--- I wrote breathing on the dry erase thing they gave me... SO I could recall the topic for myself. When I got to 75 I wrote cushings so I could recall. Then the test shut off. As soon as I got to my car I wrote those two things down and as soon as I got home I looked them up.

I never used that dry erase board one single time! I had no math!!

Oh my--- as soon as my test started I wrote

Assesment / Implementation

Physical/Psycho

ABC -- you know all that kaplan stuff...

and a few lab values were written down as I went along... But I didn't have any math. I wrote a bunch 1234... and I would cross of each number until I was down to one or two and then I picked my answer. I was always one of those people who wrote all over her test in school.

I was a definite test-writer-oner as well. Which was part of my panic at having to take a CAT test. No scanning, noting, and then going back. Just forward, w/ a demented professor behind the curtain determining severity of impending questions and taunting me w/a black out at the very end.

ZOIKS! :rolleyes::imbar:eek::specs:
