My friend and I both took our N-CLEX exms on July 15th. Her exam shut off at 75 and mine shut off at about 108!!!! We studied extremely hard going into this exam and we have been studying from Kaplan since May. Right now we just need some words of advice because we are very distraught over this exam. This exam was so much more difficult then we expected. We knew it would not be easy but this was just awful. We can't eat, sleep, all we can do is think about this exam. I know my last Q was a math question:/ It was my only math question. We are so scared to look on the pearvue website tomorrow.

I also took my exam yesterday, the 15th and feel exactly the same way! I stopped at 75 questions but felt so unsure about the exam afterwards, so I understand what you are going through. The good news is many people have said that who ended up passing. I'm trying to think positive, because I'm usually the opposite. Eat something healthy and go relax or do something that will get your mind off of it. I'm trying my best not to stress about it and I keep telling myself to be patient, because there's nothing I can do about it anyway. I thought and thought about the questions that I had I realized that I needed to stop or I'd make myself go crazy.
Good luck to you and your friend!!
Thank you. Good luck to u too:) I'm just really worried b/c I stopped at like 108, and my last question was a math question:/

Best of luck to you and your friend.
Number of questions does not determine how one does on the exam, nor the last question type or if you got it right or wrong. There really is no way to second guess your results.
Best of luck to you. Results will be on the Pearson-Vue website 48 hours after testing.
We passed!!!!!!!! Let me tell u this has to be the best feeling. We were so upset the past two days. No sleep, no eating. The only good thing that came out of it was that one of us actaully lost 4 pounds :) To all future test takers, you will probably come out of there feeling like you failed(From reading aLOT of posts from allnurses, this is a common feeling after taking the exam) but just keep in mind that you remember a lot more then u give yourself credit for. My friend and I both studied exclusively from Kaplan. While we didn't think Kaplan helped much, it certainly did because we both passed the first time (She had 75Q and i had 108Q). Thank you allnurses.com for all your support. We could of not gotten through the pre and post exam without you:)
