Re: Posting questions taken directly from NCLEX exam

I still think that some people seem not to understand that its OK to say "I had 4 med questions, 3 math calculations, etc." but NOT OK to say "what is the answer to this question that stumped me?" and proceed to paraphrase the actual question pretty well before the eyes of many other potential test takers. Posting it here means that hundreds of onlookers would now know of 1, then 2, then 3, then 4 actual NCLEX questions, etc...I think this is one site that won't allow such posts and I think that's an above board, and admireable, stand for AllNurses.com to take.

Re: Posting questions taken directly from NCLEX exam

Hi! Ms Suzanne,
When you have time, could you kindly add me to your mailing list for your new or revised study plan using the Saunders book?
Look forward to hearing from you. Thanks

I think most of our posters understand the distinction, but the issue comes up every once in a while. When a member sees a post that may violate the site's Terms of Service, they can click on the 'Report Bad Post' icon - it's the red triangle with the black exclamation mark located toward the left, under the poster's username and info.

You're on the wrong thread for this. Look at the titles again, and follow the directions she's provided. You cannot post this message here and get the reply you need.

Re: Posting questions taken directly from NCLEX exam

How could anyone possibly remember those questions or even want to remember them I guess it might be so hard for me because I answered all 265 of them. By the way Suzanne thanks for the study tips using the Saunders books that is exactly the guide I am using for the second time around. Please send some advice regarding those priority and who to see first questions. Thanx in advance

Re: Posting questions taken directly from NCLEX exam

Unfortunately, there are some that remember them exactly and word for word, and give them to the review centers where they did their review.

This is happening in the US as we speak, as well as overseas.
-------------------------------

The other issue is that it is in violation of US copyright law to post anything that has been published before, be it in a book, magazine, newspaper, or even on the net, without prior written consent of the author. And in any of the review books that the students have, there is bold writing in the fron about this, as well as when you take the NCLEX exam, you agree not to share any questions................but there are few that are doing so, and making it hard for the others.

Re: Posting questions taken directly from NCLEX exam

If it is wrong to give questions to review centers, then how does Freur do it. I hear they get updated questions from students who recently take the NCLEX. Isn't that a violation? And if so, how is it that Freur profits from it?

Re: Posting questions taken directly from NCLEX exam

Fruer is an NCLEX review course, like Kaplan. Freur and Kaplan are rivals. You can search them online, but I think I have the spelling wrong.
