265 questions!?!?

Published

I just took the Nclex this morning and got the entire test (265 questions). My roommate took it a month ago and stopped at 75...actually, most of the people I've talked to from my class only got 75 questions. I feel like my heart is in my stomach thinking I've failed. Has anyone passed with 265 questions or, by that point, do they feel like they can't make a "majority" decision about you being a safe nurse (meaning you've gotten some right but some wrong)??? Help! :(

i know people who have passed and failed with 265 questions.

you can't base anything on what your roommate and others have done. the number of nclex questions completed---is just that---the number completed. just be concerned about yourself.

while it is easier said than done....always, think positively.

I know two people who passed the NCLEX after getting the whole exam. It can be done, you just gotta keep the faith.

We have had many pass with max number of questions. As said in a previous post it is just a number and do not compare yourself to friends. Good luck

Good Morning,

I took the nclex rn on last monday and had all 265 questions and I to felt as though I had failed because of the amount of questions that I had. You can not determine if you have passed of failed based on the number of questions you had. I know some people that passed after answering 75 questions, and I know some people who failed after answering 75 questions. The same goes with getting all 265 questions, it can go either way. I am elated that I passed after answering all 265 questions. So think positive------ you can pass!
