NCLEX

The National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN® exam) has is taken by the nurses before the beginning of their professional carriers with a purpose of determining if it's safe for you to begin practice as an entry-level nurse. It is quite different from any other test that we will be taking for nursing school. Nursing school exams are knowledge-based are meant to evaluate our knowledge and to re-emphasize to build up your knowledge about the nursing while as the NCLEX-RN® tests are application and analysis where you will be fusing your knowledge with your practical, the nursing knowledge you learned in school and the practice that you would have done while serving the patient during your practical field. You will be tested on how you can use critical thinking skills to make nursing judgments and whether you can work competitively during your professional carrier. Once you are cleared up with your Nclex-RN exam, you are given a license to practice in professionally. The Nclex-RN is varied according to the state. Most questions are primarily multiple-choice with four possible answer choices; however, there are some questions with alternate question types which includes multiple-response, fill-in-the-blank, hot spots, chart/exhibit and drag-and-drop. Everyone must answer a minimum of 75 questions and to a maximum of 265 questions. It does not matter how many you answer, one will be given 15 experimental questions that do not count, either its wrong or right. Exam administrators put them to test your capability to put forth future questions on the exam. Exam does not have limit for each individual question. Maximum of 6 hours will be provided to complete the exam, which even includes a tutorial in the beginning. There are no mandatory breaks with an optional break after 2 hours of testing, and another optional break after 3.5 hours of testing.
