Hi, just a little bit of survey from you guys. May I ask, how many hours did you finished your nclex-rn exam and what number did the question stopped? Thanks!

Passed last month in 75 questions in about one hour...guess that makes me one of the 45% of "foreigners" !:nurse:

Make that two :nurse: And Im thankful to pass it the first time too. But it really give me a hard time :rolleyes: Thank God its all over now:hrnsmlys:

Took PN exam in 1hr 45 mins and shut off at 85.:typing

What is the ideal time to answer each question? Ofcourse we dont know what number it will stop:specs:

not so sure with the exact number...87+ but below 90 q's in 2 hours 30 mins. i passed and got my result yesterday.

good luck!!!

The First Time I Took The Nclex, I Got 77 Questions And It Took Me About One Hour Or So. I Failed From Not Studying As Much As I Should Have. The Second Time, I Got Every Question, 265, And It Took Me About 2 1/2 Hours. I Failed Then Also, But Found Out I Was On The Verge Of Passing When I Received My Analysis

The number of questions and the length of time that is takes to answer has no bearing on anyone's results.

Those that trained in the US have an 85% chance of passing the first time and those that trained out of the US have about a 45% chance of passing the first time.

Each exam is completely different and what one person had or length of time does not affect any other exam.

Interesting about the training percentages.

Ontario trained RN and when I took the NCLEX it was 75 questions in 1 hour 20 minutes.
