Answer to Question 1

A
Many nursing programs administer an examination to students at the completion of their nursing program. New graduates who examine their feedback from such an examination have important information regarding their strengths and weaknesses that can help them focus their review for the NCLEX. Taking an exit exam will not help the students reduce their anxiety nor will it help the graduate get a new job.

Answer to Question 2

D
In 1974 Kramer identified reality shock. Reality shock is described as a conflict between the new graduate's expectations and the reality of the first nursing position. The honeymoon period, the resolution phase, and the recovery phase are not part of reality shock, but they are part of Kramer's description of the transitions new nurses pass through.
