MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Preparation for the NCLEX-PN examination should include
a. cramming difficult concepts the night before the examination.
b. rereading each textbook used in the program of study.
c. going to a party the evening before the test.
d. reviewing content summaries and focusing on identified areas of weakness.

ANS: D
Identifying areas of weakness and undertaking a systematic study program is a good strategy for
preparing for the NCLEX-PN examination. Cramming is rarely effective. Rereading all texts is time-
consuming and lacks focus. Relaxing is a good idea, but partying may lead to fatigue and lack of
clarity in thinking the next day.

2. LPN/LVN licensure by endorsement in the United States and its territories is possible because
a. English is the spoken language of each locale.
b. the NCLEX-PN examination is used by the board of nursing of each locale.
c. computer-adaptive testing maximizes testing efficiency.
d. the NCLEX-PN examination test plan reflects current practice.

ANS: B
When the same examination is used, the boards of nursing can be assured that those who pass have
the knowledge to practice practical/vocational nursing at a minimally safe and effective level.

3. What advice should the testing candidate consider the best method for preparing to take the NCLEX-PN
examination?
a. “Participate in an all-night cram session the night before the test.”
b. “Rely on your intuition to answer questions when you do not know the answer.”
c. “Study throughout the year and review systematically before the exam.”
d. “Quiz previous graduates about test content and study what they mention.”

ANS: C
Studying for each nursing examination and passing it provide a firm foundation for the NCLEX-PN
examination. Systematic review over a number of weeks prior to the NCLEX- PN examination will
refresh one’s knowledge. Cramming is usually counterproductive because it results in fatigue and
lowers the ability to think clearly during the examination. Better advice is to rule out wrong answers
and consider clues and key words found in the stem of the question. With CAT, the topics covered in
the questions answered by one person may be quite different from those selected for another person.

4. The practical/vocational nursing student tells a colleague, “I know I’m going to fail the NCLEX-PN
examination. I’ve heard that a huge amount of the examination is psychology related, and I hated
psychology!” The reply that shows the best understanding of the NCLEX-PN examination is
a. “You’d better retake the psychology course.”
b. “There are equal numbers of questions related to each aspect of patient needs.”
c. “Psychosocial integrity is the basis for 8% to 14% of the questions.”
d. “I’ve heard there’s more emphasis on care planning than anything else.”

ANS: C
Psychosocial integrity is the basis for 8% to 14% of the questions of the NCLEX-PN examination
test plan. The other options do not show understanding of the current test plan.

5. The SP/VN reviewing for the NCLEX-PN examination should study based on an understanding that the
category of patient need that is most heavily tested is
a. the clinical problem-solving process.
b. safe, effective care environment.
c. health promotion and maintenance.
d. physiologic integrity.

ANS: D
