Question from a foreign nurse

I am a foreign nurse and will take the nclex exam this september. My question is do I have to pass all the client needs category like:

Basic Care and Comfort Coordinated Care Health Promotion and Maintenance Physiological Adaptation Psychosocial Integrity Reduction of Risk Potential Safety and Infection Control or it doesn't matter if I fail on one of this category as long as I'm in the passing range. Please someone answer my question to enlighten me. Thank you so much for your help.

I'm not sure if this answers your question or not...but... The test asks you questions from each of the client needs areas. As you answer each question it will attempt to determine your knowledge level. As long as your overall score for the questions you answer is above the passing level - you will pass. It does not matter if all the questions you got wrong were from one area or scattered among all the areas.

Please read the threads at the top of this forum about what is required to pass the exam. The exam does not know where you trained or where you are writing the exam, it makes no distinction in that.

Anything that was covered in nursing school in US programs is fair game for the exam. And anything that is a weakness of yours, will usually get you more questions on that topic.

Best of luck to you.
