Practice questions for the NCLEX-PN
For candidates sitting the NCLEX-PN, the licensure examination for Practical Nurses.
The examination is the NCLEX-PN; the licence it leads to is the LPN, or LVN in some states. If you are studying for your practical nursing licence, this is the bank you want — choose NCLEX-PN when you build a quiz and only items written for it are used.
Every format, scored the way the examination scores it
All ten in-scope formats are available for NCLEX-PN, Traditional and Next Generation alike. Partial credit is applied where the format calls for it rather than marking a nearly-right answer simply wrong.
- Multiple choice
- Select all that apply
- Ordered response
- Fill in the blank
- Highlight
- Matrix / grid
- Drag and drop
- Hot spot
- Bow-tie
- Unfolding case study
Practise exactly what you need to
Build a quiz from any combination of the five classification lists, then narrow it to questions you have not yet seen, ones you answered incorrectly, or ones you marked to come back to. Selecting NCLEX-PN restricts the bank to items written for that examination.

Know where you stand
Every question carries a rationale — read it as you go in tutor mode, or work against the clock and review afterwards. Your accuracy is broken down by category, subject, section, topic and question type, with strongest and weakest areas identified, so the next quiz can go where the marks are.
Bookmark anything you want to revisit, keep your own notes against a question, and reopen any previous test from your history. Signing in on another device brings all of it with you.
