## What This Page Is

A focused landing page for nursing students preparing for the **Next Generation NCLEX (NGN)** — the exam format that replaced the legacy NCLEX in April 2023. NurseReady is built around the NCSBN Clinical Judgment Measurement Model (CJMM) that the NGN actually scores.

## What Changed With The NGN

The NGN, launched April 2023, replaced rote-recall items with **case studies** and new item types that measure **clinical judgment** rather than memorization. Old question banks still help with content recall but don't train the reasoning the NGN actually scores.

## The NCSBN Clinical Judgment Measurement Model (CJMM)

The NGN scores 6 layers of clinical judgment:

1. **Recognize cues** — spot the relevant finding in a noisy scenario.
2. **Analyze cues** — link findings to likely causes or deteriorations.
3. **Prioritize hypotheses** — decide which concern to act on first.
4. **Generate solutions** — build a safe, reasoned plan.
5. **Take action** — choose the next intervention under pressure.
6. **Evaluate outcomes** — re-assess and adjust based on response.

## All 5 NGN Item Types (Fully Supported on NurseReady)

| Type | Format | What It Tests |
|------|--------|---------------|
| Multiple Choice (MCQ) | Single best answer, 4 options | Recognize cues, analyze cues |
| Select All That Apply (SATA) | 5 options, 2–4 correct, partial-credit scored | Prioritize hypotheses, evaluate outcomes |
| Ordered Response | Rank 4–6 steps in correct sequence | Generate solutions, take action |
| Cloze (Drop-Down) | Fill the blank from a dropdown | Analyze cues, evaluate outcomes |
| Matrix / Grid | Categorize each finding (Expected vs Unexpected) | Recognize cues, prioritize hypotheses |
