Sue's NCLEX exam results

My wife Sue sat her NCLEX nursing exam on Thursday.
She has been and RN for 14 years - even still, the NCLEX is a 6 hour comprehensive exam.

Its all done at a computer terminal under the strictest of circumstances. The computer locked her out after 1 1/2 hours.
She took this as a bad sign and wasn’t confident - it was a difficult day to say the least!

We got results back today - PASS!

It turns out that it is an adaptive test so it poses the next question based on how you answered the last. ie if you got it right, it makes the next one harder.
She maxed out the computer so it was satisfied that she knew her stuff after 75 questions.

That means that we can now change our status here in the US from an R1 visa to a longer working class visa.

It also means that now Sue can legally nurse here.
