Hey shelleybelle, I take my PN exam next week. How was it? 85 question is usu a good sign, but please let us know. Good luck!

Well, I had LOTS of nutrition questions.. especially r/t celiac disease. No psych q's, 3 dosage calc's, a few peds, no ob/maternity. It was weird... absolutely NOTHING you could EVER prepare or study for. Even the stuff I got q's on that I knew about... the answers ALL looked good. I feel pretty good, though. I'm just aggravated that my state doesn't participate in the 2-day service. Anyone know of any other way of finding out before I get the snail mail version????

Good look, mamita... RELAX...

I passed the NCLEX-RN with 75 and the NCLEX-PN with 85...

Shelley...does your state have the 1-900 number you can call with unoffical results???

My state is one of the few that DOES NOT have the quick-results service Drives me crazy. I've tried going to the state's website to look for the license listings, but it's not available.

Guess i'll be waiting....

I'm waiting myself. How long did it take everyone who doesn't have access to the quick results in their state? This is torture!!!! I live in NC.

wow.. I got my results in on Friday in the MAIL (with my license). I took it on Wed - I did NOT expect it so quickly! I passed w/85 q's, my friend I went w/ passed w/ 190q's, our other friend failed - she had 85 q's. Never can tell.

Sounds like I should've moved to Mississippi then if they move on things that quickly. LOL. Seems like NC drags their feet. Thanks for the input though, now I'm even more nervous. I wish that it was a definite type thing as far as the # of q's.

Congrats Shelleybelle! Wow you got your license number and everything already, that's great.

Well I took mine today and I finished in about an hour and I think it shut off at 85 ques. I say I think, because after I passed #56 I got so focused on the questions that when it shut off it took me by surprise! It wasn't too long after I I saw #56 so I think it was 85. LOL! I'll find out by thursday or Friday.

I took the PN NCLEX on August 9 of this year. Me and a friend from class decided to test together. My computer shut off at 85 questions. I thought I would have a Heart Attack!!! I told them to turn it back on!! I KNEW I failed that sucker bigger than snot. The friend who went with me tested the whole 205 questions....i had to wait along time on him. I had to wait for a WHOLE 48 hours before finding out my results.. I PASSED!!! unfortunately my friend didnt. but, another girl from class took the 205 and did pass. Go Figure. I don't think it matters how many questions you get really but, who knows for sure....good luck to those who waiting for results.
