2017 Washington state nclex. Finished 89 questions, bad pvt. Fail?

Published

I finished my nclex march 13 2017 started at 730am finished at 910. It shut off At 89 questions with 17 sata. I felt the questions were pretty easy, i was so sure I passed! I read Through allnurses and saw people getting their license posted on the doh website in 4 hours! I got nervous after waiting 6 hours and did the pvt, card got declined when i put in the wrong exp date, did it again with the right exp date and it accepted my $$. It's been 24 hours past and i've been thinking that the reason i felt the test was easy was because i didnt get higher level questions? Is it truly possible i bombed in just 89 questions? The test didnt even give me a chance to answer higher level to prove myself worthy! I fwel worthless. I need input please! Thankyou!

Why don't you just wait until you get the official test results to see if you have something to really worry about?

How can i remain calm? Im going crazyyy! Do you think i failed?

Up up up

I'm sorry I don't know what this means.

All you can do now is wait. If you passed unfortunately you wasted the registration fee, but it does sound like you failed. Yes you can fail in 89 questions; it was the amount of time the test needed to determine that no matter how many more questions it gave you, you weren't going to get above the passing standard. I'm sorry, that's just how it works. It gave you 89 questions, so it DID give you a chance to prove yourself, it's just that you couldn't prove you could pass. You can't GET to the higher level questions if you can't pass the low level ones.

Sending good vibes to you. I would also suggest HURST and Uworld for study material.
