I don't expect anyone to give away questions, but anyone who took the NCLEX PN, did you have alot of pharm questions? I just can't remember all the meds and everything about them! I am hoping for alot of priority and basic care questions!! :)

Each exam is different, spme get no pharm questions. The computer gives you questions based on how you answered the previous question. And it will focus in on your weak points.

I didn't get any pharm questions. Passed at 85 questions. I haven't an idea if thats typical or not though.

I took the NCLEX-PN this past Saturday, the 15th, and had questions about 7-10 different meds. Most I had heard of and, ironically, 3/4 of them I had just given to patients last week while at work. So that helped ALOT!! But the types of questions I got regarding the meds were all different. Some were even select-all-that-apply. Also, my exam also shut off at 85 questions(Thank God!!!!) and I found out yesterday that I passed!!!. :-)
So, to that note, it's hard to say what one person will get compared to the next one.

I took the nclex-pn last friday. I did have a few pharm questions but most were about everyday meds that I had given alot in clinicals. I remember only getting 1 or 2 and pharm is not one of my good points so I may have just guessed these questions correctly and the computer did not pick up on my weakness. I must say pham was the major area I was most concerned about before the test though. I passed with 85 questions.
Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
