what a strange number!

Published

I took my NCLEX-PN today and it cut off at 101 questions. I've heard a lot of low numbers and people worrying about 200 questions, but 101? Now I'm wondering if I was doing poorly and the machine tried to give me some more chances to get some right and then gave up.

By the way...I had a math question that gave me the grams of output and I had to add them up, but then they wanted the answer in ML???? I know I got that wrong. I don't understand. I can't put the exact question in here or it would probably make more sense.

Now...I just wait and check my computer every 10 minutes for the next few days to see my results.

It is just a number and you can pass or fail with any number but a high % pass first time if trained in the US. Try to get out whilst waiting for results. Hang in there and good luck
