Questions about LPN program?

this ? is 4 all the LPNs and RNs. I just started an LPN program. Although I’m starting off well, I have some concerns about the testing. I notice a lot of times we r marked wrong for an answer that is right according to the book and the “NCLEX style questions” that r on the CD that came with the book. We bring it up to the instructor, sometimes he gives points back, but sometimes he won’t. I’ve looked all over the web 4 info 2 help prove my point, but no luck. He says that the book is just a guide and NCLEX doesn’t recognize one book over another & we just need 2 go by what he says. My problem is, that if NCLEX wants the answers the way they r on the CD/book, I don’t think it’s fair 2 reinforce a different answer. Example:once a lpn is licensed s/he can apply to another state 4 licensure by:a.taking ncelx 4 that state. b.interstate compact c.endorsment d.following the NursePracticeAct. the book/CD say C. endorsement,but he says B. interstate compact. where can i find proof?

Your teacher may not know it all. You need to read your book and understand what you are reading. It sounds as if you are memorizing the questions and answer book as it came with the CD. When you do not understand a question – instead of asking your teacher, bring it to class so that it could be discussed by everyone in the class. By so doing your teacher will not give you the answer in his head. Things have change and if the teacher is not doing continued education he may not be able to pass the exam if he or she is asked to write it. You just have to ask the question with tact. good luck
