Are you sure you can sit for the NCLEX-PN? I've never heard of taking the NCLEX-RN and failing it and being able to take the NCLEX-PN.

I have heard of RN students after a certain period of time into the program being able to sit for the NCLEX-PN, and then after graduating the RN program, take the NCLEX-RN. But the way you are asking about, never heard of that.

I'd sugges contacting your State's Board of Nurses and see if its possible and if it is, how you go about it.

Yea I didn't know you could do that? Let us know if you find out! But on the NCLEX PN I had 75 questions, the majority of which were select all that apply :sour: and meds I had never heard of or diseases I had never heard of. Oh and prioritization questions too. That's all I remember.

Hi just go to "BVNPT"website and you will see there the steps in applying for the NCLEX-PN exam.I took NCLEX-RN once sadly failed and when ireapply CABRN denied my application bcoz of the concurrency issue. I just passed the PN exam last month.I didnt see much of the difference between the 2 exams,both hard for me.::down:.

Only certain states permit this... NY, NJ, PA do not. CA BVNPT seems to approve a majority of applicants who are IENs who did not meet the concurrency requirements of CABRN.

Starting point would be applying to state and meeting their requirements for LPN
