  6. My take on NCLEX=RN

    nursemomruns replied to Miss Mab's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The level of the questions depends on the cognitive level at which they are written. Most of the NCLEX questions are at the analysis level or higher. Depending on how the math questions are written,...

  7. My take on NCLEX=RN

    nursemomruns replied to Miss Mab's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I would just like to clarify one thing in your post. No one "board" creates the NCLEX exams or makes decisions on them. The exams are developed through NCSBN, with input from a variety of sources,...

  8. Did I Fail With 112 Questions?

    nursemomruns replied to ALMOST RN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    There is not a magic number for passing or failing. You can pass at any number or you can fail at any number. The first guy at the CA RN Board probably told you not to bother looking on line because...

  11. My take on NCLEX=RN

    nursemomruns replied to Miss Mab's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The reason the questions on the predictor exams and in Saunders or any other prep materials are not the same as the NCLEX exams is that they are not developed by the same people. The NCLEX questions...

  12. Why do Nurses need to study History

    nursemomruns replied to Tweety's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    llg, I totally agree. I will also add that in looking back at the ancient cultures, we learn about philosophy, which helps us understand modern psychology, which we certainly need in nursing....

  14. I hate waiting!

    nursemomruns replied to happyrn2's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Don't worry about how many questions you had. Most candidates answer the minimum number of questions. Usually between 55 and 60% if examinees. Only about 15% get the maximum number of questions....

  15. Time between graduation & review/NCLEX

    nursemomruns replied to gambitlizard's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It is true that the likelihood of passing decreases as time goes by. But six weeks isn't the magic number and it isn't much of a difference till after 3 months. There's a big dip after six months....

  16. Medication Nurse Assistants

    nursemomruns replied to K205's topic in General Nursing

    I am currently working on a study of just this topic. You are correct - none of the states have licensure for medication assistants. At most, they have certification. The requirements for...

    nursemomruns replied to DutchgirlRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I didn't take the PN exam, but I did take the RN exam in much the same way. The test was only offered twice a year and at only a very few locations in each state. My state had only one location....

  23. Failing the NCLEX at 77 Questions

    nursemomruns replied to CarolineRn's topic in First Year After Licensure
