Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C
The authorization-to-test letter comes from the state board of nursing. An appointment for testing at the testing center is necessary. Walk-in testing is not available. Appropriate identification is necessary to satisfy security requirements. Fingerprinting is done at the time of testing.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, E
Most program examinations allow the tester to skip a question and return to it at a later time. The NCLEX-PN examination, as a computerized adaptive examination, individualizes testing, whereas program examinations are identical for all students taking a specific test. There is no penalty for guessing on the NCLEX-PN. Alternate formats can be used in program examinations and the NCLEX-PN examination. One should read all possible answers for both program examinations and the NCLEX examination. Early selection may lead to missing an answer that is better.
