Questions, answered

What is WriteSpan Nursing?
An NCLEX practice platform: questions across all eight client-needs categories, Next Generation items, an explanation and clinical pearl on every question, review of your misses, and a readiness estimate.
Who writes and reviews the questions?
The questions are written for WriteSpan and reviewed by nurse educators led by Dr. Shari Tenner, MSN, RN. About the team.
What is free?
10 graded questions a day in any category, each with its full explanation, the free 15-question practice test, review of your misses, and your readiness estimate. No card, no expiry.
What does full access include, and does it renew?
Every question with no daily limit, study and timed modes, the practice exam and unlimited review, for 6 months. It is one payment of $49. Nothing renews; if you need more time, buy again and the months add on. Plans.
Is it for the NCLEX-RN or the NCLEX-PN?
Both. Choose your exam when you sign up (you can change it on the Me page) and practice sets follow it.
Does it include Next Generation (NGN) items?
Yes: multiple response, matrix, drop-down cloze and bow-tie items, scored with partial credit the way the NCLEX scores them. Try one of each.
How does the readiness estimate work?
It is built from your most recent answers, with partial credit for Next Generation items, and shows how sure it is. It sharpens as you answer more. It is an estimate to guide your study, not a guarantee of a result.
Can I use it on my phone?
Yes. It works in any modern browser on phones, tablets and computers, and you can install it as an app: see Get the app for the steps on your phone. Light and dark themes are both built in.
Can a nursing program buy access for a class?
Yes. Write to support@writespan.com and we will set it up.
What if I have a problem with a question or a payment?
Every question has a “Report a problem” link; a nurse educator reviews each report. For payments or refunds, write to support@writespan.com.
