NCSBN Makes Modifications to NCLEX-RN and NCLEX-PN Effective Oct. 1, 2020
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, NCSBN introduced several carefully evaluated and tested modifications to the NCLEX examinations, which are set to expire on Sept. 30, 2020. Beginning Oct. 1, 2020, NCLEX exams will retain some of the characteristics of the modified exam, including:
NCSBN's main COVID-19 page has been updated that highlights news at the top with prominent boxes that link to subpages for:
NCLEX Candidate Resources
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, NCSBN has developed a variety of information resource pages on its COVID-19 Information webpage. For NCLEX candidates, the resources below can be accessed for the most pertinent NCLEX testing information.
Testing Site Information
Due to capacity requirements imposed by local governments, test center locations and availability are continuously evolving. Therefore, candidates should log into their Pearson VUE accounts to find test center locations availability. For answers to frequently asked candidate questions, test center policies and sanitation information, visit Pearson VUE’s dedicated webpage for NCLEX candidates.
Modifications to the NCLEX
In order to allow the maximum number of candidates to test per day, the NCSBN Board of Directors voted to modify the NCLEX Examinations starting on March 25, 2020. The time limit of the exam has been shortened to four hours, by removing both the pretest items and the Next Generation NCLEX special research section and reducing the maximum number of items to 130. The modified exams will remain in effect through Sept. 30, 2020. Find up-to-date information about COVID-19’s impact on the NCLEX.
NCLEX Candidate Bulletin
The 2020 NCLEX Candidate Bulletin has been updated to reflect the modified NCLEX, and is available on the Candidate Bulletin & Information webpage. Candidates should familiarize themselves with this document as it provides a multitude of NCLEX related information, including important contact information, details on how to register, the NCLEX Candidate Rules and results processing.
NCLEX Test Plans
Test plans for both the NCLEX-RN and NCLEX-PN examinations can be found on the NCLEX Test Plans webpage. The NCLEX test plans outline the content to be tested and guide the item writing process. The test plans are updated every three years to reflect current, entry-level nursing competency. Frequently asked questions about the test plans are also available.
Social Media
You can follow NCLEX social media pages on Facebook and Twitter for additional updates.
