Re: What to Expect on NCLEX?
Expect a lot of priority type qustions where you have 4 patients and you have to determine which to see first. Also expect a lot of questions about what sign/ symptom to report first. The vast majority of my NCLEX exam consisted of the above type of questions.
Also, expect to see questions that you didn't learn in school, can't find the answers online, but are expected to know such as postmordum care of jewish men, and questions about the budist faith and dying. These ones ****** me off as as they is no way in hell to know them, let alone look up the answersw online..i tried.
Remeber maslow, the nursing process, and your A, B, C,'s is very important. Oh yeah , and get and USE the earplugs. MAkes a ton of difference. I had a girl coughing up her lungs next to me, without the earplugs I wouldn't of been able to consentrate. And feeling like you want to vomit while entering and leaving the testing center is completely normal.

I finished LPN school August 31, and just took my state boards Nov 23. I thought I was gonna vomit on the way to test. Don't get yourself all worked up, everyone will have a different story on how it will be. Some of my friends tested before me and said it was horrible, all nutrition. Well for me it was a mixture of everything i've learned, the most part was critical thinking. WHAT TO DO FIRST! How to walk with a cane, if this person has this dx, what is the most common syptoms, just alot of different questions. Just take your time and relax. My test stoped at the min amount of questions, 85, I passed! Im sure you will too.
