Took NCLEX-RN this am-stopped at 198-Im freaking out!

Published

Did anyone else pass with the computer stopping at 198. It is such an odd number to shut off at.....I dont know what to think! ADVICE?

Talked to a friend today who took hers & she had 265. I'm sure she passed, though, but we'll know for sure tomorrow! She also talked to a fellow classmate today who took her's on Tuesday, took 200 questions & found her lovely little name on the list on the BON website today! Yay! Both are very smart women & great nurses, so I don't think the number of questions is indicative of anything. Good luck to all!

The only advice I have, is to think positive. The computer cut off at 216 for me. After hearing everyone else say they only had 75 questions and passed I freaked out at 76. Thank God , I passed, but it reminded me, not to compare my experience with others. Good luck, Im sure you did fine.:icon_hug:

I took the boards yesterday and I am not sure exactly how many question somewhere between 80-85. I feel awful-I need to see the results so that I can sleep!! So much work and they had questions that I have no idea where they came from!! God I hope I passed because the only thing worse than failing would be taking that test again!!

i took the exam yesterday and i went all the way to 265! i walked out of there crying. everyone says that you have a better chance of passing if you get more questions... i'm really hoping that's true. please pray for me.

I took my NCLEX-RN on 6/28, totally freaked out when the computer stopped at 75 questions! I found out this morning 6/30 that I had passed from Pearson. I'm so relieved that I passed! The waiting is awful, I don't know how everyone who took their boards over a 2 day period waited the dreaded 6-8 weeks to find out, this past 48 hours was horrible!

When I took my LVN boards, I found out later the same afternoon that I passed from Pearson, now we have to wait 48 hours.

Congratulations to everyone who passed!
