I was wondering if all the states have the exact same test? Or if anyone knows if some states are easier. I heard some states are way easier, and i was curious about which states these were....

All the States use the NCLEX. One State isn't harder or easier than the other. If it were, there'd be airline reservations galore to that State
Years ago, each State administered their own test for nurses. I had heard that some States were much harder to pass than others, and that if you could pass ABC State you could pass anywhere. Not sure how true that was.

NCLEX stands for national licensure exam. You will be getting the same exam no matter which state that you test for or the locale of the exam.
It is a computerized exam and will give you the questions based on how you answered the previous ones.
Best of luck to you.
