Why did the exam feel so hard?

Because it is designed to. Adaptive testing keeps raising difficulty while you answer correctly, so a strong candidate spends most of the exam at the edge of their ability. Feeling like you were guessing constantly is the expected experience rather than a bad sign.

This comes up on NCLEX Test Plan and Item Formats, where it is answered in the context of the work itself.
