Hi,
So I'm very confused over the current state of the NAPLEX. I think it's great news that the exam won't officially be changing to the longer 240 question version until later this year. However, that still leaves me wondering what exactly the test is like now?
I will be taking the NAPLEX again in about a month (sadly, I still need to review a lot because apparently I retain virtually nothing.) I also struggle with select all that apply, so I'm taking as many RxPrep test banks as possible since a major reason I struggled with this exam is due to the fact I am bad at taking "adaptive tests" - I had no idea how they truly worked until after the fact.
So is the current NAPLEX like a 180 question version of the 240 one that will be coming out later this year? Or is it like somewhere in between? Somewhat like the old one and sort of like what it's expected to become?
RxPrep 2016 version said something like how it was geared for students graduating this spring/summer...so does that mean it would prove useless to me since I will be testing before then? Should I still be using RxPrep 2015? It's just too bad the quiz bank has changed to reflect 2016 page numbers and information.
Thank you,
