A nursing student is preparing to take the NCLEX-PNÆ and notes that she must bring which items the day of the exam? Select all that apply
A) ìAuthorization to Testî card from the state board of nursing
B) Official transcript from the nursing program the nurse graduated
C) Current driver's license with correct legal name and picture
D) Social Security Card with full legal name
E) A note from the nurse's physician explaining his or her learning disability and special accommodations needed during testing
Ans: A, C
Feedback:
The candidate for the NCLEX-PNÆ needs to bring an official picture identification card containing legal name and picture. The Social Security card does not contain a picture id. The official transcripts are not needed to write for the exam because the nursing program submitted verification of eligible candidates as part of the application process. The note from the physician regarding the learning disability asking for special testing accommodations is needed to be provided during the application to test process. The ìAuthorization to Testî card is needed, but the booklet included with the card is not.
