is 265 questions good or bad?
|
Posted 6 months ago hello all.. i took my nclex-rn exam yesterday and did the whole thing. (265 questions).. had 26-28 select all that apply questions, 9 math questions, a lot of infection control, pharma, priority, who would you see first and even easy questions which i think are non-passing and 1 question was repeated! (im not sure why.. but im sure it was the same question!!).. honestly, im not expecting to pass, specially when i got those select all that apply questions ( HATE THOSE Qs!!!, im pretty sure i got most of them wrong). and to make things worse, i got the last question(pysch) wrong. im really disappointed with my performance yesterday b/c according to kaplan, i was already ready. got a score of 68% on question trainer 6 and 69% on q. trainer 7. averaged on low 60s on my q-bank. my mind went totally blank during the exam and cant remember anything... does anyone know if PSYCH questions are passing or non-passing questions? i kinda get the feeling that it is at the lower level.. and if im right,then i surely failed the board exam. i think itll take me a month to find out the results. feel sick to my stomach. i think ill just start studying again.... |

| Posted 6 months ago hello?? anybody there? =) |
|
| Posted 6 months ago Dude, just wait for the results. Most everyone I know thought they failed regardless of whether they did or not. Why does it take a month to find out?? You've just taken boards & got the screw of all 265. Can't read into it. You're a little benzo deficient right now so try to find your results as soon as possible & go from there. |

| Posted 4 months ago Sublime, Did you get your results yet? You can always go onto the website and get "unofficial" results of your state allows it. You just have to pay 8 dollars or something like that. Let us know how you did! Lori |

| Posted about 1 month ago I also just took boards here in maryland and got 265!!!!! that was a beast to sit there all that time. all the select all that applies, pictures. questions after questions..........waiting for results. |
|
| Posted about 1 month ago same here, i took my nclex last july 25, and yes, i finished the 265 questions without taking a break, coz maybe if i did, i could have run out of time.! up to now i still dont have the result in my hand. yes i can inquire in site, but im scared to know the result. so, you think im prolonging the agony?! i dont even know myself. im just so scred to know .. "happiness depends upon ourselves" |

| Posted about 1 month ago I took it 8 1/2 years ago and got over 200 questions. I swear they just randomly pick who is going to get all the questions. I had a friend who took it, got only the 75 questions and failed, so don't sweat it either way! I do know some of the questions on there are "preliminary" questions that they are trying out, so they don't count. THINK POSITIVE and good luck! |
by the way sublime, how long was the waiting for you? im glad you made it!
