    I'm still taking prereq's but have been taking NCLEX practice tests

    NenaRK replied to NenaRK's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I do agree that I should have put it in the Pre-Nursing section, I usually categorize my questions correctly but I was in a rush when I posted this thread. Sorry if it's irritating and unbelievable, but keep in mind I am younger than you and I obviou...

    NenaRK replied to NenaRK's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Yes, the app does include those kinds of questions. I understand that the NCLEX is just a small portion of the whole Nursing education package, but I was just surprised because I thought I would have done worse considering I've never taken an actual ...
