Just took my test this AM,
am now starting to freak out
Test was 75?s, almost half or more were "select all that apply", or so it seems. (anxiety could be clouding my memory)
I'm trying to figure out if the SATA questions are considered to be higher-level questions.
my SATA questions would come in strings of 5-10?s at a time. spent a lot of time wondering "what ever happened to multiple choice?"
does anyone know about the significance of SATA questions? is getting loads of SATA ?s back to back a good sign?
thanks!

same question here...i also took my exam last 18 and i got 75 questions,16 of which are SATA questions,plenty of prioritization qs too...that was definitely a brain twister....now i dont know if i should start to rejoice or worry.....how true is that information regarding SATA and prioritization questions? are they really considered the higher level?

Number of questions has no bearing on your results, nor the number of SATA questions. Please be aware that all exams have 15 questions that do not count but you never will know which ones that they are when you test or later on.
There is no way to second guess one's results, you are going to need to wait until you can access Pearson-Vue if your state participates in early results or on your BON website.
Best of luck to you.
this is a torture... applied at california-no quick results!! its gonna be a loooooonnnnggg wait for me....

same here pinkroyalty18...took it on the 18th. Got around 7 SATAs(last 2 was SATA) I really don't know what to feel right now and so anxious to find out if i passed or failed again.:scrying:
lets just hope for the best and continue praying..if i remember it right,my last question was also a SATA.:bowingpur.i was really aiming for 75 so when it stopped right there,i was really happy....went out from the test center with a big smile! hahaha and its just now that it started to sink in that maybe i could also have failed that exam..maybe i was just too confident thinking i got SATA and prioritizations.....waaaah.......
good luck to us......let us know how it all went...will let u know too if i already have the result....:nuke:
I was sick the day before so i really prayed hard that i just get the minimal number of questions so i am able to stay focused and He answered my prayers. I know that His presence was there while I was taking my test. I sure hope this time He allows me to pass because if not maybe He still has other plans for me.
Happy Sunday there in the Philippines!!! By the way, I'm Filipino too:nuke:

hello kababayan!!! yeah,same here...i really prayed and asked HIM to stay with me and guide me during the exam..im usually panicky in almost all situations but that day was different..i was even excited to take my exam..am i weird?anyway,i woke up,went to pearson vue confidently (which is quite unusual for a "tarantitit" gal like me....heheh), answered it and went out of the test center smiling..i dont know maybe i was just being too confident or what but the feeling is really different..i know i wasnt alone during my exam....i know he gave me the confidence and the enlightenment i asked Him...
lets stay positive...my prayers are with all of you...i hope we all pass!!!!:nuke::nuke::nuke:
