You must keep in mind that you should always give the NCLEX what it wants. What I mean by this is that you shouldn’t argue with the facts that are presented to you during your studies and beyond. The test is based on what the average nurse will do in each particular situation, so it won’t do you any good to what you, personally, believe is correct if the NCLEX doesn’t agree with your answer. However, if you do get the answer wrong, be a blank slate, come up with the next right answer in your mind, and hold onto the rationale. For instance, what a real-world nurse would do in a clinical setting may not be what a nurse would do in an NCLEX setting, and that’s something that you will have to be aware of as you study. Hold onto the notion that it is is based on a perfect world with perfect clinical scenarios.
