    it is one adaptive examination. meaning you can get a minimum of 85 to max 205 questions. and you don't know which parts/subjects you will heavily be tested on. to the op, good luck. keep practicing...
  20. isn't the nc1 like the fundamentals of nursing?? is it really hard? most likely, i will follow your advice though. yeah, i am kinda afraid of a last "killer weed-out final", hopefully not though. that...
