Are we allowed to bring items to the boards?

Published

I will be taking my nclex soon! What items are we allowed to bring with us during the boards? What items are not allowed? (id, pens, paper, calculator etc)

You may bring NOTHING into the room with you. You will get a locker and everything except your earrings and including your watch goes into it.

You may carry in your driver's license and locker key. You will be given a white board with a marker for calculations that you are not to erase, and a calculator is on the computer.

Do not take any study material to the center with you.

Read page 12 on this link, tells you what you are asking https://www.ncsbn.org/2009_NCLEX_Candidate_Bulletin.pdf

you can leave your purse in the locker. you can only bring ID and the key of your locker inside the test center. They'll give you a white board and a marker. Calculator is on the computer...:nuke:

Goodluck and God bless.

That would be a positive "NO" only the Locker Key if that in your state (we are allowed in Florida) and your photo ID:D

No... the first time I told it I had a really bad cold... My nose was running and I could not STOP coughing... They would not let me even bring in tissues or cough drops... It was so misable!

i think it's kinda sound ridiculous but are we allowed to wear or bring a jacket?

Nope, you are not allowed to wear a jacket. I would wear a sweatshirt or something if you think you will be cold. You will not be allowed to bring in ANYTHING!

oh my! im intolerant to a cold environment. it is because i came from a tropical country. and i must say i have difficulty adjusting with the weather here in US.
