Key Rules For The Exam
The National League for Nursing enforces certain rules and practices during online exam sessions in order to maintain the integrity of our assessments and to ensure that your test scores are just as accurate and trustworthy as any candidate who takes the exam in a physical test center facility. There is no need to worry. Our online testing rules are the same as the rules enforced at in-person test centers. If you know the material and you’ve prepared for this important exam, you’ll do just fine. We’re constantly refining our online testing processes to make your online testing experience as convenient and anxiety-free as possible.
Below are a few key rules you need to be prepared to follow:
Allowed Materials
During your exam session, your environment must be clean and clear of any prohibited materials, notes, or study guides. During the check-in process on Exam Day, you will be required to submit a scan of your desktop and the surrounding space in order to verify that you have no prohibited materials accessible during the exam.
The following items are the ONLY items allowed during your test session:
• Dry Erase Board

• No headsets or earbuds are allowed during the test.
• Absolutely no cell phones are allowed in the testing area at any time during the session.

• No food or beverages are allowed in the testing area at any time.
• The testing area must be silent with no other background noise. There is no speaking allowed during your test. This is required in order to maintain equity with students who test in-person.
