Results on hold :(((

[OB-nurse2013, BSN, RN]

So I'm really disappointed in myself. I have worked so hard and done well in school but the NCLEX was not at all what I expected. I don't think I felt confident on anything and got 250 questions! I'm so frustrated and mad at myself. I'm trying to stay positive and pray to God that somehow I passed. I could really use some words of encouragement. I have no idea why my results would be on hold either????

Hey now, don't worry yet. I also did well in school and felt ready for the NCLEX. Then, I got 180 questions and felt sick afterwards.. However, I did pass! As far as results on hold - that doesn't mean anything one way or another. Actually I recall that more people pass w/results on hold than fail. My guess is that you passed. Did you get a lot of SATA? I had tons of them- lost count at 50 --probably more. The test did not go the way I expected either. I got really stressed and second-guessed myself for at least half the exam. I know it's impossible, but try to keep positive. Keep us posted. PM me if you want.

Thanks!!!!!!!!! I am so nervous..I don't think there is even a chance that I passed. I was really surprised at the NCLEX. I always thought I was a good test-taker.

Spent 5 hours at the testing center today and got all 265 questions. I definitely can relate to the anxiety you are feeling. I still don't understand how I could have possibly needed 265 question for the computer to know if I was a pass or fail. Did good in school, went to a top notch BSN program that was rigorous beyond belief, but still needed all the questions. I think I've read on here that holds could have to do with the number of white boards you used, breaks taken, just about anything can be flagged for further review. Chin up. I'll be stalking my BON's website all day tomorrow to see if there is any change in my licensure status.
