Has anyone else noticed that the fill in the blank type review questions are not scored properly on their review CD's?
here's hopin I don't get many fill-in-the-blank questions on the exam... I have almost no confidence in the computers ability to score them and/or it may be me and I am not filling in my responses correctly... who knows...
thanks

What kind of CD do you use?
If Sounders, I completely agree with you and it happens with most of the fill-in-the-blank qs, even if I write the correct answer (word to word) the CD gives me "sorry it is the wrong answer". I hope that is software mistake and on the real exam they'll score our fill-in answer right.
Anyone else?

How are you filling it in? I don't believe there are supposed to be any labels and no spaces...is there a tutorial?

YUp, I had the same experience with my saunder's cd tutorial.. I think it's a software problem. I'd just read the rationale and move on.

They're having you put words in the blanks? On the real NCLEX, the NCSBN says that fill-in-the-blank is only used for calculations and you just put the number in the blank. I didn't have any fill-in-the-blanks on my test.

That's good to know, thanks for the link it helped calm my concerns :-)

I didn't have any fill in the blanks either but I had a lot of "check all that apply".
