Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Identifying areas of weakness and undertaking a systematic study program is a good strategy for preparing for the NCLEX-PN examination. Cramming is rarely effective. Rereading all texts is time-consuming and lacks focus. Relaxing is a good idea, but partying may lead to fatigue and lack of clarity in thinking the next day.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C, D
It is appropriate for the interviewee to write a thank you letter following the interview and to call to inquire whether he or she has been hired. The remaining options are inappropriate to the situation.
