Hi everyone!
I was just wondering, what test is harder CGFNS or NCLEX.

CGFNS definitely, you are tested on specifics about diseases, etc.
NCLEX focuses more on priority type questions, the new areas being stressed are disaster planning and triage.
When are you planning on writing NCLEX? :)
Plus CGFNS is a timed exam, one minute per question.
With NCLEX, you have 5 hours to complete the exam.....
