Computer Adaptive Test (CAT)

• NCLEX uses CAT to administer NCLEX. CAT merges computer technology with modern measurement theory to increase the efficiency of the exam process.
• The selection of questions is based on the NCLEX-RN test plan and by the level of item difficulty.
• Your first question is relatively easy, if you selected a correct answer, the computer supplies you with a more difficult question from its question bank.
• If you have selected an incorrect answer, the computer gives you an easier question.
• This process continues throughout the examination until the test plan requirements are met and the computer is able to determine your level of competence.
• There is no option to skip a question, you must answer it or the test will not move on.
• You cannot go back and review previous questions and change answers
