I heard that the pass rate for first-time takers of NCLEX is 85%. I am not all that impressed with that percentage. Provided my school's ADN program boasted a 98% pass rate. With all of those funky exams taken in nursing school that NCLEX rate should be higher. Maybe nursing schools should change its test structure. Taking NCLEX is like buying an expensive lottery ticket. Pay your $200.00 NCLEX testing fee and try your luck. Friends of mine wonder that you go through all that stress for years to finally graduate nursing school to then have to take this exam and cross your fingers. I would rather be a social worker.

I met a seasoned LPN in the ICU that could knock a couple of RN's socks off. It's all about experience. Plain and simple. I've observed plenty of residents asking the nurses what they should do? Go figure:uhoh3:
