nclex difference

Hi there!

Perhaps you should just focus on study material that's related to the NCLEX-PN. I don't think you have the time or the energy to be confused and irritated by the different formats! :chuckle From what I understand, the NCLEX-RN has a lot more to do with prioritization, delegation, assignment, and pharmacology. I'm not quite sure what is tested on the NCLEX-PN version, but obviously there is a substantial difference with regards to our indivualized scope of nursing practice.

I'd suggest studying from Saunder's 4th edition, Kaplan, Exam Cram, Lippincott, or/and Mosby's. Those have content review books for the PN version of the test.

Here are some links to show how each book looks/costs:

Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-PN® Examination (Saunders Comprehensive Review for Nclex-Pn)

Kaplan NCLEX-PN, 2010 Edition: Strategies for the Practical Nursing Licensing Exam (Kaplan Nclex-Pn Exam)

NCLEX-PN Exam Cram (2nd Edition)

Lippincott's Review for NCLEX-PN® (Lippincott's State Board Review for Nclex-Pn)

Mosby's Comprehensive Review of Practical Nursing for the NCLEX-PN® Examination (Mosby's Comprehensive Review of Practical Nursing for Nclex-Pn)

Hope that helps and Good Luck Studying!!!

Is basically the same thing except the delegation aspect of it.
