passing nclex & test plan

[mslema]

For NCLEX-RN, do you have to pass each of the categories in the test plan in order to pass entire exam? I know that you must get more than 50% of the more "difficult" level questions correct, but is it broken down to where you have to get that in each category (i.e., psychosocial integrity, health promotion and maintenance, etc.) Hope this makes sense. Thanks.

You know i wondered the same thing. I found out few weeks ago I didn't pass and i too wanted to know if you have to pass in all categories. Well since i don't know the answer maybe someone here will come along and give both of us the answer we are looking for.
