I need some words of encouragement.. I am feeling pretty low My test stopped at 85.. It had a lot of the "check all that apply" doesn't that make the chances of getting it right lower? I hope I passed.. I am just really feeling afraid at this time. Help!

I'm nervous too I did my NCLEX LPN  on Friday 16, 2024 got shut off at 85 I'm so nervous this can be good or bad. I keep checking even though they say 48 hours sat and Sunday don't consider business days. This is stressing to wait to be honest I'm more nervous now than when I was doing the exam. I felt so confident doing it and say yes I got this. I can't sleep now!!
