NCLEX-PN ?

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

My aunt just finished her NCLEX-PN test today. She felt as though she did ok, but wasn't 100% sure that she passed. The reason for this is that she only had 80 questions, 90% were pharmacology questions with meds she really had never heard of, and 25% of them were choose all that apply. Overall she felt as though this was a hard test, and she was a A/B student all through LPN school and was once a paramedic. For those of you that have taken the test, do things sound promising for her? Please let me know your feelings on this. We are all pulling for her. Thanks for any insight you can give.

Are you sure she only had 80 questions? I thought the minimum amount for NCLEX-PN was 85 questions and the minimum amount for NCLEX-RN was 75?? Maybe I am wrong though.

I had 85 questions on my NCLEX-PN and passed, as did all of my classmates who also stopped at 85. She should be able to find out with the quick results in 48 hours if she lives in one of the states that participates.

Wishing her good luck and have a great evening!

Thanks for the info. That is definitely promising. You are right, it was 85 questions. I remembered wrong and just checked with her. Thanks again.
