The newly graduated nurse learns that a peer who just took the NCLEX-PN® was asked a number of questions about obstetrics. The graduate nurse will:
1. Amend study plans to spend a bit more time on obstetrics.
2. Continue studying as before, with emphasis on favorite subjects.
3. Spend all of the time studying obstetrics.
4. Study areas of weakness, and spend the least time on favorite subjects.
4
Rationale: The NCLEX-PN® is computer-based testing, and the questions for each test taker are different. The experiences of one will have no impact on the experiences of another, because questions are randomly distributed. It is best for the nurse to concentrate on areas of weakness and spend the least time on favorite areas, because the latter tend to be the subjects the nurse already knows best.
