Shut off at 85...NCLEX PN

Published

Specializes in Student.

I took my test at 2:00pm this past Friday. It turned off at 85. When I walked out of the building, I was thinking "it wasn't that bad". I felt ok about it. Of course now I'm freaking out. Maybe it wasn't that hard b/c I wasn't getting the difficult ones right. Honestly, I couldn't say if I even noticed if particular questions were harder that others. I tried to take each question seriously reading it twice and reading my answers twice before clicking to the next. The funny thing about the test is that It did give me questions I knew how to answer, but sometimes the right answer wans't there. I feel like I learned nothing that prepared me enough, or prepared me for what the next best thing to do would be. I had to give an educated guess...we'll see how educated in the next few days I suppose.:icon_roll

I just took my NCLEX PN 4 days ago and I felt exactly the same way. My test shut off at 85 without giving me any calculations. I felt like the test wasn't as hard as I thought it would be but I also felt like I wasn't answering the questions right. I was so used to study mode and being able to read the answer and rationale right after. I wouldn't have been able to distinguish the easy vs. hard questions either because I just assumed every question to be difficult. But I am pretty sure we did fine. As everyone else said on here, you have to get mostly every question wrong for it to shut off at 85, which I'm pretty sure isn't the case for us. Good luck to you as I will be praying for the both of us. Keep us posted!
