Questions about the questions

Published

After you took the Nclex, what type of questions did you have.

such as ob, peds, med/surg. Did anyone have a bunch of select all. Those r my biggest weakness. On the test questions that r on the CD's I guess three right but there is one that I am have not maked that applies. How do I get pass that obsticle?

I had a variety of questions, there were a lot of priority questions. I wouldn't say there was any area of nursing that was prominent on my exam. I took my boards yesterday and passed!!!

I agree with Angela, I had even mix of priority and teaching and general knowledge I couldnt' gage by them wether I had passed or not. but I did! I have about 5 select all that apply but that was it as far as the alternate questions were concerned. I got somewhere right over 220 questions!

goodluck!

Mine was a pretty even mix on content as well. I had about 8-9 alternate format (select all that apply).

Remember that if you miss one alternate format, it isn't going to make or break you - just do your best and go on to the next one. Keep practicing and be sure to read the rationales for the practice questions.

Good luck!!

I had only 1 select all that apply question. They are my worst nightmare! I prayed I wouldn't get a bunch.

I had 5 select all that apply, and I ended up with 75 questions, and finished in 50 minutes. good luck on studying for boards!
