Why so many SATA questions?

Published

I took my nclex today and I have a question. My test shut off at the minimum 85 questions. The majority of my questions were SATA. what would make the test give me so many of this type of question? I think there were around 20 of them. If it helps, I did the pvt and I got the "good" pop up

The minimum number of questions is actually 75. All question types are random, I don't know if there's a way to find out why certain questions are given. Truth is...that probably doesn't matter at this point. The thing that matters is you're getting the good pop up. :)

Congrats!!

I think the minimum number of questions on the PN exam is 85 -- maybe OP took that? At any rate, congrats, OP!

85 is the minimum on PN, mine were also mostly SATA..it was horrible! I came out of the test feeling like I had failed. I got the good pop to so just waiting for the quick results.fingers crossed :)

I am not at all sure I know what I'm talking about, but I think a number of those were questions they were "filtering" for future test takers.

If you got the "good pop-up," please be thankful and encourage those who will follow you in coming days.

From me to you: Way to kick tail!

Some days we have to be thankful for what we have.
