NCLEX ??

Published

Any of the mods know the updated 2009 percentage of test questions that will be on NCLEX? In Saunders, I have one that's printed from 2005 and I was wondering if the percentage of test questions has changed since then? Please let me know if you know this for sure or anyone else knows this? Thanks

SOURCE: Saunders - edition 3 (orange book) Page 5 chapter 1 :: I'm referring to CLIENT NEEDS AND THE PERCENTAGE OF TEST QUESTIONS!! (box that's highlighted with a gray shade)

BTW- I'm asking this question because so I can focus strongly only on those chapters with higher percentage of test questions that will be on the NCLEX!! :confused:

EDIT: I think I answered my own question lol & I did a lil research of my own. I guess 2008 is the recent update from NCSBN site. FAO: mods u can close this thread if u wish 2 do so.

I would not base my studying on that......I took my test today and felt like i got hit from every angle...I had 75 questions and felt that the test was like the prentice Hall review and rational book and Kaplan. I heard it was like saunders and i also studied saunders but i would not agree with that....my advice would to do 150 questions and select all topics cause that is how nclex will be
