The NCLEX-RN exams are computer adaptive tests (CATs), meaning the questions you receive are in direct response to the questions you previously answered. If you get an answer wrong, the next question will be slightly easier. Get an answer right and the next question will be a little more difficult. With each question you answer, the computer’s estimate of your abilities gets more precise. 13
Nursing is a fulfilling career where individuals support and take care of others’ health needs. Licensure indicates nurses are qualified and ready to begin their careers, as it demonstrates that the nurse has demonstrated content competence.
