Took the NCLEX...how many questions did you answer?

[beckakc]

OMG my nerves are shot. I shut off at the minimum of 85 questions but I don't feel good about it. A couple of classmates also tested today and both answered all 205 questions. These were very smart people, and good students.

So here's my question to you... How many of you answered 85 and failed? And how many answered 205 and passed?

I had 75 questions and passed and I had a classmate who had 85 and passed. It is a competency exam. Once that is determined, the computer shuts off. It could be any number. Don't sweat it ok.

I passed at 75, my friend did not pass with her 75. So the number really doesn't matter, don't go by how many questions you've gotten. Did you do the Pearson Vue trick, to determine if you passed? It usually works.

My test stopped at 75 questions and I didn't feel confident about it at all, but I passed.

I answered 205 and passed!

I didn't even know 205 was the max before I took the test so naturally, I was freaking out. I cried my eyes out as soon as I got to my car! I immediately started googling "nclex pn 205 pass or fail" haha but I later did the Pearson Vue Trick and received a good pop up! BUT I didn't celebrate until I received the letter officially stating that I passed

Don't worry about the good students that hit 205 and whatnot.. it'll just stress you out more! I wish you the best of luck!!
