Hi TiffanyMarie25,

You are not alone !!! I took my NCLEX PN Aug 30, my comp shut off at 85. Im in Cali so Im still waiting for my results, it now 5 weeks Grrrr ....I felt the same way the first week after my test. There is so much anxiety and nervousness. I know with out a doubt I failed. I know I was doing good at first but once I started getting questions I had no idea what the answer is, thats when I started to freakout and everything went down hill from there. I was soo angry that the computer didnt give me a chance. I knew If the comp shut off at 85 I twas BAD. All I can say is try and keep busy and keep your mind off the test. I've been able to keep myself pretty busy but this week has really been hard because I know my results are coming any day. I have known people that have passed and failed at 85 and 205 so you will never know until you get yout results. Dont you have quick results in your state ? Good Luck

I just finished taking the NCLEX-PN and I feel awful! My computer shut off at 205 questions! I feel like pulling my hair out and crawling back into bed and crying!!!!!

I had all 205 questions too!! In Delaware you can go online to the board of nursing website and see if you have a license number. I looked the very next morning and I had a license number! I was a struggling student so I was afraid I didn't pass. The smartest girl in our class also passed with 205 questions and so did 2 others. Try not to despair. When will you find out? :confused:

Come on California, get with the program and post results online!!!! Such torture to make you wait so long. I got my license in the mail 3 days after taking the test. I'm originally from San Mateo, CA so I say again - California needs to get up to speed with online technology!:typing

:hngon: Hang in there. The number of questions does NOT reflect whether you have passed/failed. Stay positive and wait for the results. Good luck! (((( HUGS ))))
