I think this is the most helpless I can ever remember feeling. I feel like I can't do anything until I know. The more I think about it, the more I think I failed. It's the worst!!!

I know what you are talking about. The time seems to be taking forever!

I got 75 questions which is what I was dreading. I've heard that if you get the minimum it means you either did really good or really bad. Anybody hear anything like that?

That's also what I heard...although I'm not sure how true it is. I hate to delve into the inner workings of NLCEX...but I can't help it because I'm so stressed. NLCEX seems to stress how you don't know if you passed or failed based on how many questions you got. But it makes sense to me...because if you get 75 questions, you recieved the minimum and you were either so much over the "median" line, that it didn't need to test you anymore, or you were so much under it that you couldn't redeem yourself.

I also kind of feel like I got a lot of the same type of questions. I'm wondering if that's a bad thing and I was getting them because I had gotten the previous ones wrong. I feel like my last questions weren't all that complex...compared to the ones, say, in the middle of the test. I'm going to make myself sick trying to decipher this dumb test!

I actually got alot of the same type of questions as well which is really freakng me out. I also seemed to get harder questions in the middle which is odd. I wish you could access the results right away.

i don't know why you have to wait in agony for two days. It stinks!

I agree. Imagine if you don't pay the extra and don't find out for up to a month. I think it's pretty rediculous. They know our score right away...I don't care if I get a double unofficial score. I would be willing to pay like a hundred bucks to find out right now...that's how much it's interfering with my life. Haha. Oh well...we'll see. I'm glad that I'm not the only one going through this stinkyness.

Good luck...

I know, I know, it's just hard to relax. I just can't possibly see how I passed at 75. I wish I could have a few beers but unfortunately I have to go go work tomorrow.
