Already only generic name of all drugs?

Published

I heard NCLEX announced they will give us only generic name of drugs on the exam. However some people say they had still brand name on the exam few months ago. I will take NCLEX next month. Will they show only generic name of all drugs? If so, I am sad... fell unlucky...

My friend took it last week and said it was generics only.

May I ask how many of you guys had a lot of pharm questions?

I had 2, and no calculations. I have talked to ten of my classmates and their experience was the same with in 3 questions.

Thank you everyone!! .....Finally NCSBN changed about that..... brand name has helped me to guess what kind medicine it is.... I feel depressed.... but it can't help it....

Haven't you (all of you) been learning medications by the generic names all along?

Why would this be a big deal?

Well not to be snarky but you should have a good grasp on generics anyway, second I didn't get anything crazy, you'd have be pretty terrible at pharm to not know what the drugs were on my test.
