Well~ I finally did it....took my NCLEX. It quit at 85 questions. How do you all think I did from your experience? Did I pass?
Lordy, lordy~ I pray I did....:)
I know...I know.....just wait for the results, right? How can a person do this? The waiting is harder than any nursing exam ever could be!
Give your opinion, ya'll...ok?
Thanks!

Don't know, Julie..NObody knows!
Just hold on and go merrily along with your life until the day comes. Worrying and making yourself sick and being miserable won't change things one way or the other, so why torture yourself until then? It's OVER ! DONE ! Continue on with your life and hope for the best, but don't waste precious days and relationships or miss the good things for all the angst !
Here's some hugs ((( ))) to make you feel a little better though!
We're all wishing only the best for you ! :kiss
Let us know as soon as you find out !!!

I would say you passed. I have heard of NO one who failed getting only 85 questions. You likely ACED it. I wish you luck. Let us know. (i freaked, it stopped at 76 for me, i was done in less than 30 min). Yes, I passed. You will, too.

Go to a movie, or any museum. I understand, and will be in your shoes/clogs one day. Being on the computer can also get you into space, where you stop being anxious about your results. Either way you'll be all right. Good luck!
