Can Simulation Predict NCLEX-RN Ⓡ Success?

For registered nurse graduates to practice, they must first pass a licensure examination to ensure they meet the minimum competency of safe entry-level practice. Passing the NCLEX-RN Ⓡ (National Council Licensure Examination - Registered Nurse) requires higher-order thinking and application of clinical judgment, both of which can be supported in simulation experiences (Bristol, 2018). Computer-based predictor exams are utilized throughout nursing programs across the country, to identify students who are likely to pass NCLEX-RNⓇ, or those who may require targeted remediation to prepare them for success.
