120 questions today on NCLEX

Published

I know that I got the last one correct because I checked it after the test. I know that that isn't an accurate predictor of whether or not you pass or fail, but it has eased my suffering a bit today!

I am a bit uneasy about 120 questions. I feel like I did quite well on a portion of the test (I had a lot of drug calculations, and I rock those) however, there was some stuff that threw me.

So, have you ever heard of anyone passing with 120 questions? (It might have been 123 or something like that, I'm not sure of the exact number. To be honest, I quit paying attention at 75.)

I took the RN boards 2 weeks ago, same with you I was around 122-124. I had alot of drug calcs for some reason, and I knew I got the last question right which was a pharm priority question. and I passed!! So hey man if you sound like we're on the same boat, then that boat you're on is taking you to a RN license. Good luck and I hope the best for you.

One of my friends passed with 123 questions! The number of questions means nothing! Best wishes and you may surprise yourself on how well you did on the test! Keep us updated and good luck!

PS: Taking mine on July 17... What kind of questions did you get? Infection control, SATA, meds, prioritization,..?

I had quite a few pharmacology questions -- and some involved drugs with which I was not familiar!

I had a ton of priority questions.

Several drug calculations.

Half a dozen or so psych questions.

A few OB questions.

Several Peds questions.

Several delegation questions.

And a lot of "what would most alarm you" questions.

Number of questions mean nothing apart from just being a number.

Good luck

Update: I PASSED! I am so happy! I made my husband check to see if the results were available, then I shooed him away as I checked the results. I then looked up the definition of "pass" and jumped up and down and did a somersault on my bed. :D
