About this USA NCLEX Exam practice test

The NCLEX exam is the licensing exam every nursing graduate must pass to work as a registered nurse (NCLEX-RN) or practical/vocational nurse (NCLEX-PN) in the USA. It is developed by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) and uses computerized adaptive testing (CAT).

Our question bank is written from the official sources behind our USA NCLEX Exam guide. Every question comes with an explanation, so each test teaches you something even when you get it wrong.

Set up your test: pick the number of questions (up to all 41), a mode and, if you want, a single topic: Pharmacology, Physiological integrity, Safety & infection control, Management of care, Exam format, Health promotion, Psychosocial integrity.
Answer the questions: questions are drawn at random and answer choices are shuffled every time.
Get your results: see your score, a topic-by-topic breakdown and an explanation for every answer, then retry the ones you missed.

Is the USA NCLEX Exam practice test free?

Yes. The USA NCLEX Exam practice test is completely free, with no sign-up. You can take as many tests as you like.

Choose 10, 25 or 50 questions (as the bank allows), or the entire question bank. You can also focus on a single topic to work on weak areas.

What is the difference between exam mode and practice mode?

Exam mode works like the real test: you answer everything and see your score and explanations at the end. Practice mode shows the correct answer and explanation right after each question.
