![NCLEX prep.png](https://www.myguruedge.com/hs-fs/hubfs/NCLEX%20prep.png?width=320&name=NCLEX%20prep.png)If you’re gearing up for your NCLEX-RN, you’re probably buried in cumbersome books, coffee-stained notebooks and disorganized thought. A great way to test where you are and where you should focus your study efforts is by using practice questions.

### What to expect on your NCLEX-RN

The NCLEX-RN lasts for one day and you will face between 75-265 multiple choice questions. These may also include multiple response, fill-in-the-blank, and hot spot questions.

The NCLEX-RN is administered on a computer using CAT (**Computer Adaptive Testing**). This means that an individual will be offered more questions depending on how consistently the examinee can answer the questions correctly, with the attempt to provide a more valid and reliable measurement of competence.
