I am trying my best not to freak out...I am a Christian and throughout the entire test, I prayed. I went in with the intention of answering 75 questions and getting out of there, but I got 127 before the computer shut off. I did research and learned that I answered the last question correctly. I am going on line to get my results on Sunday morning. I am anxious and don't want to be because it is against the nature of God. Can you offer some encouraging words?

I understand your anxiety. I went to 140 on RN-NCLEX and had to wait 2 weeks for results and it took 6 weeks for results on LPN paper and penicl exam and I passed first try on both.

You can fail or pass at 75 or 265 and all the numbers in between.

You have done all you can do. Try to do something for you. Keep us posted.
Keep the Faith!
