April NCLEX-PN Takers: Please Post Your Thoughts

Published

Hi Everyone,

The buzz, as we all know, is that the exam is going to have a higher passing standard as of today. However, I also read that the questions will be revised for clarity, which sounds good to me. It would be so helpful if those who take the new version of the NCLEX-PN exam would please post your thoughts about the test here, after you take it. Please let us know how the test has changed (more alternate format? Higher level of difficulty?). Also, which books, cd's or study guides/programs were most like the actual exam or most helpful. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!! :) Thanks!

Got my results this morning and I am officially a Licensed Practical Nurse YAY!!!!! Good luck to all the future test takers.:nurse:

Mercedes SPN, I know exactly how u feel. I graduated on March 24th so I waited almost a month but thats because my school was holding on to the paperwork. My nerves was so bad that I was giving myself anxiety attacks.I didnt tell anybody when I was testing because I didnt want the added pressure from other ppl. Just relax and go in there and do it and u will do fine.

JIA, Have you tried the pearson vue trick? It worked for me. I went onto the website for registration and put in all of my info just like I was registering and answered the question if I have taken the exam before as yes and then when it came time to pay it wouldn't let me register and said something along the lines of I need to contact my state agency. You can google it. That's how I figured out how to do it. I hear it works all the time :)

Hey is that la charity book specifically for pn?? What color is it?? I'm having trouble with prioritization, so Im going to get that book.. Help asap... Thanks...

I took the test today. As previously stated, study those safety precautions and infection control info!! My test was FULL of that, prioritization, and teaching. The teaching covered all areas of nursing so there's really no way to be prepared for that. Just know the most important risk factors for diseases. I had a few diet questions, a lot of SATA (maybe 15 or so), 10 medication questions including 3 calculations, 2 drag and drops, and no hot spots or audios. There was a lot of great info posted, I wish I had seen it before I went in! But I got the good pop up from the PVT!

I used my ATI materials and studied my notes.
