What is NCLEX-PN? Understanding the Practical Nurse Licensure Exam
The NCLEX-PN (National Council Licensure Examination – Practical Nurse) is a standardized, computer-adaptive test that every nursing candidate must pass to obtain licensure as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) or Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) in the United States. Developed by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN), this examination assesses whether you have the essential knowledge, skills, and abilities required for safe and effective entry-level practical nursing practice.
While similar to NCLEX-RN, the NCLEX-PN focuses specifically on practical nursing competencies and patient care under supervision. Understanding this distinction is crucial for choosing the right career path – and UDAAN Nursing Institute provides expert guidance to help you make informed decisions about your nursing future.
NCLEX-PN vs NCLEX-RN: Understanding the Difference
Many nursing students wonder about the differences between NCLEX-PN and NCLEX-RN. Here's a comprehensive comparison:
NCLEX-PN (LPN/LVN)
- • Role: Licensed Practical/Vocational Nurse
- • Scope: Provides basic patient care under RN supervision
- • Duration: Shorter exam (85-205 questions)
- • Education: Diploma/certificate programs (12-18 months)
- • Salary Range: $40,000 - $55,000/year
- • Career Path: Faster entry into U.S. healthcare
NCLEX-RN (Registered Nurse)
- • Role: Registered Nurse
- • Scope: Independent practice, supervises LPNs
- • Duration: Longer exam (75-145 questions)
- • Education: B.Sc Nursing (4 years)
- • Salary Range: $70,000 - $95,000/year
- • Career Path: More specialization opportunities
Which One Should You Choose?
NCLEX-PN is ideal if you want faster entry into the U.S. nursing workforce with lower initial education requirements. NCLEX-RN offers higher earning potential and more career advancement opportunities but requires a 4-year nursing degree. Our expert counselors at UDAAN can help you determine the best path based on your qualifications and career goals.
