What is okay and legal to discuss about the test after the test?

Published

I am paranoid.... really paranoid. I think I have come this far and I don't want to get in trouble over discussing details of the test... so what can we talk about on the nclex after we have taken it? Specific drugs or just the category of drugs? Such as psych drugs. Prioritization? Heart meds? How specific can we get about diabetes? NCLEX seems huge on that disease as well as post-surgery complications.

What can we talk about? I don't want to cross boundaries to compromise my license and hope I haven't done it already posting here...

I have seen people discuss things in very general terms, saying what types of questions that they had, how many of which type, etc. Just like a test in nursing school, it's best not to be specific. Just general stuff.

you sign a confidentiality form stating you will not discuss questions you saw on the exam. this is on the ncsbn website

candidates should never divulge any information about their actual exams. all candidates sign a confidentiality agreement on the computer at the start of their examination and, therefore, no information regarding exam content should be expressed.

Stop worrying about the small stuff. Discuss whether or not you passed and you can't go wrong.
