NCLEX Cram Guide

what is the nclex?
test tips
The NCLEX exam is the licensure examination that
nursing school graduates in the US and Canada
have to take to recieve their license. There are two
types: the NCLEX -RN and the NCLEX -PN.
®

Questions
• Minimum questions: 75
• Maximum questions: 145
Time Limit
• 6 hours
Breaks
• 2 optional breaks:
• First break @ 2 hours
• Second break @ 3.5 hours
You can take
unscheduled brea
ks
at any time! It jus
t
counts against yo
ur
testing time.
Day of the exam

• Arrive 30 minutes before the exam

Do not ignore or “PASS THE BUCK”
• If there is a nursing task you can do to fix the
problem BEFORE contacting the HCP, do that!
Don't add information
• There are no “hidden meanings” in the
questions. Don't add something to the
scenario that's not written.
How long to study for
• You don't want to study for too long.
Aim to study anywhere from 4 - 6 weeks.
This way, all the things you have studied
are fresh for the exam.
Avoid answers with absolutes
• Avoid answers with absolutes like always,
never, every, none, only, all, etc.
Schedule Mock exams
• Take a few mock exams. Put your phone
away, don't get up, and do 75 random
questions. This will truly prepare you for the
NCLEX exam. You will get questions that
bounce from pediatrics to pharmacology to
mental health. Train your brain to bounce
between these different subjects.
Saved by the suffix
• Don't memorize every medication name;
know the suffixes & prefixes for each
mediation class.

Practice questions
• Do a lot of practice questions. Have a goal
for how many you want to do each day.
• Read all the rationales, even if you got
it correct.
Don't read into the questions
• Don't assume or add information that is
not there. Take the question for as it is.

You may be stressed, you may feel tired,
and you may want to give up. Nursing school is
hard, there's no doubt about it. Everyone cries,
everyone has meltdowns, and there will be
moments you don't feel qualified for the task at
hand. But take heart, the challenge only makes
you stronger. Put in the work, show up on time,
and find an amazing study group. You got this!
