Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, C
Each question that appears on the screen must be answered in order for the examination to continue. The basis for this is that question selection is based on the correctness of the answer given for the previous question. The computer determines that the candidate has passed when he or she has completed at least 85 questions and it can be determined that the person has correctly answered 50 of the questions with a high index of difficulty. All questions are scored. Not all testers answer the maximum number of questions (205). Seventy-five percent is not used to determine passing.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, D, F
The NCLEX-PN examination includes questions of varying levels of difficulty; it may have fill-in-the-blank questions, charts, tables, and graphics; and it tests the cognitive levels of knowledge, comprehension, application, and analysis. Using multiple choice questions exclusively is incorrect, because alternate types of questions are used in the examination. Requiring the tester to select a single best answer for each question is inaccurate, because multiple answers may be correct for some questions. Integrating three of the four steps of the nursing process used by LPN/LVNs is incorrect, because all four steps of the LPN/LVN nursing process are integrated into the examination.
