    When you answer 70 operational items, the computer cannot decide whether you should pass or fail the exam, so it continues selecting items for you to answer. The exam stops at item 110 because after this item, your estimate and the confidence interval are above the passing standard. ©2023 National Council of State Boards of Nursing, Inc.
