5. Can i do just 75 questions for 6 hours?

   BulletBlueSky replied to ineverseeu's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   I wouldn't attempt to game the system. Sure you can spend 6 hours on 75 questions if you want, but when the time runs out, that doesn't guarantee a pass. Also, the more time you spend on a question...
