Answer to Question 1

Ans: B, C, D
Feedback:
There are several strategies that a graduate can use to prepare for retaking the NCLEX-PN. These include seeking help on interpreting the CPR, taking mock examinations, and focusing on identified areas of weakness. Gaining more bedside experience and asking nurses why they passed are not strategies that are likely to increase the student's chances of success.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
A course that is offered by recordings, with no instructor present, is not likely to be a worthwhile exercise. Involvement by LP/VNs, testimonials by satisfied participants, and the integration of the Category of Client Needs are all potential merits of a review course.
