shut off at 75th question pass or fail (nclex rn)

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Anybody here who passed at 75 having easy questions? I know they're at easy level coz they're just actually testing your content and memory. I dont think I got them all right esp on SATA. I cant believe I did so bad that it had to shut off at 75.. =( i dont know what to do now. This is my 2nd time. I still dont know the result. Just took it yesterday. I cant sleep and I feel so depressed right now...

I graduated in 2009.. I took nclex rn in 2011 and failed 265.. I was denied by Cali BON when i re apply for the test again.. So i applied for Nclex PN in 2013 and pass! I am currently here in cali working as an LVN, Now i decided to take nclex rn again i applied in oregon. I will be planning to work part time so i can focus on studying.. I feel like am back to basic again.. Am doing saunders again and ncsbn..

Congratulation again!! 😀👏🏼🎉🎉

How was the Lvn in comparison? Is it Computer adaptive too, like RN? I am having a tough time with RN... :( at least want to get something under my belt to start getting experience while it continue to conquer nclex-RN! Congrats on your job and continuing your adventure too. Nclex RN makes me sad!!! Haha

I'm so happy for you. It gives me hope. I recently took my exam on the 30th of June. It cut me off at 75 as well. I did the pvt the day of and the next day and got the "good pop-up". I'm currently am waiting on my 48 hours. I'm going to pay the $8. I'm so anxious it's awful that they put us through this lol. I'm suppose to start on job as a RN in a few weeks. My whole life just rest in the hands of these test results. #praying

Hi. Any update??

Hello Bevialbe ! Congratulations on passing your NCLEX

I took my NCLEX on 09/24/2015 and felt like I knew "NOTHING"

Had 12 SATA, 1 Exhibit and the rest were all Multiple Choice questions.

The questions I had were mostly medications and forget what else....

The Computer turned off at 75 (with a multiple choice questions) and walked

out the testing room depressed :/

I won't find out my results till 2 weeks...oh the agony @______@

How many SATA did you have?

I took exam and when it stopped at 75 I was confused. I read it was either really good or really bad. I didn't have that many SATA questions. I panicked. Prioritization, which requires follow up, a few with vitals box. I got home and cleaned house- I even scrubbed my walls!! felt worried.I did the PVT. I still could not believe I passed despite "good pop up". It seemed too easy.I was certain I got 4 wrong and failed.I am still in shock. I looked up my name in BON, nothing. I paid for quick results and saw "pass" in total disbelief and excitement. The day of exam I woke up late, barely made it, I had been out of school 5 months and tried my best to prepare ahead of time. I used ATI. I did skills modules , learning tests, practice tests until I had 90% across the entire board. I used nursing app for nclex. I watched you tube nursing videos and most importantly played Plants vs Zombies like a 12 year old on Ritalin. I found it impossible to study for hours. There is research that shows games can train the brain to "attack problems and develop strategy", and its fun. It worked for me, but maybe I just got lucky.

I just took mine today and it shut off at 75!! I got the "good pop up" but don't know if it was too early to do that... My last question was a SATA... not sure what to think...Any feedback??? How accurate is the PVT??

It's a trick. Less accurate before 24 hours. The type of question you had last is irrelevant.

Wait for quick results or official from the BoN for an accurate determination of pass fail

I totally understand you right now. Just finished my NCLEX right now and the computers stopped at 75. I try to go to Pearson Vue and they let me re-book my exame again :(

Im still hoping I passed...

Don't lose hope! The pop up doesn't always work for everyone. It doesn't necessarily mean you failed. Stay positive :)

You attempted too soon. The registration glitch is significantly less "accurate" in the first 24 hours post exam.

Thank you for your support, will try it again today. The best way is to wait for the quick results to be ready but this waiting game is killing me! Let's see how it goes :)
