Good Afternoon,

How was your interview? Mine is scheduled for next week? Any job offers yet?

I took the test last week. 75 questions, very general, very straight-forward, similar to NCLEX practice questions however only 1 right answer per question (no SATA). There may have been a slight emphasis on recreational drugs and overdose situations, but I might only feel that way because I don't recall any questions like this in my NCLEX prep. There may have been maybe 3 or 4 questions on that topic, tops. You are given 2.5 hours and will probably be done in 30 minutes.
