Questions, answered
Are these actual NCLEX-PN questions?
No. They are original practice questions written from the public exam outline, not questions taken from the exam. Exam owners keep live questions confidential.
How many questions are on the NCLEX-PN?
Between 85 and 150, in up to 5 hours including breaks. The exam is computer adaptive and stops once it is 95% sure whether you passed, so the number of questions you get does not show your result. Source: NCSBN 2026 NCLEX-PN Test Plan.
Is this NCLEX-PN practice test free?
Yes. All 8 tests, 200 questions in total, are free to use with answers and explanations, and there is no sign up. The full bank of 3,301 questions comes with a plan.
Where should I start?
Start with the client needs category you find hardest. Each test covers one client needs category, so a low score shows where to spend your study time.
