Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
When the same examination is used, the boards of nursing can be assured that those who pass have the knowledge to practice practical/vocational nursing at a minimally safe and effective level.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The NCLEX-PN examination measures the minimum competencies required to safely and effectively practice as a newly licensed practical/vocational nurse. The NCLEX-PN examination is administered by a testing agency. The NCLEX-PN does not confer eligibility to enter an ADN program. The NCLEX-RN examination tests information based on its own test plan.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
