NCLEX® Prep for
LPN/LVN Students

Your program moves fast. Your studying has to keep up.

Practical and vocational nursing programs pack fundamentals, pharm, and clinicals into about a year. At the end sits the NCLEX-PN®, its own exam with its own test plan. Study With Lily turns your class materials into practice questions while you're in school, then preps you for boards with practice built for the 2026 PN test plan. Not watered-down RN content.

Why LPN/LVN students

Your class notes become your question bank

Upload your lecture slides, study guides, or syllabus. Lily builds practice questions matched to what your instructor is actually covering, so class prep and boards prep are one habit.

Boards prep built on the PN plan

Q1of 3

A nurse is working as a volunteer at a community emergency shelter following a major hurricane. Forty-eight hours after the storm, a 67-year-old male arrives at the shelter reporting he has been without power, running water, or food since the hurricane made landfall. He is diaphoretic, confused, and his skin is warm and dry. His temperature is 39.8°C (103.6°F), blood pressure is 98/60 mmHg, and heart rate is 118 beats/min. Bystanders report he was found outside near debris earlier in the day. Which nursing interventions are appropriate for this client at this time?

Questions from
LPN/LVN students

When should LPN/LVN students start NCLEX-PN® prep?

Start coursework practice in your first month. Your program is short, so class study and boards prep need to be the same habit. Shift toward dedicated NCLEX-PN® practice in your final stretch.

Is the NCLEX-PN® easier than the NCLEX-RN®?

It's different, not easier. The NCLEX-PN® tests the practical nurse scope: data collection, reinforcing teaching, and assisting with the care plan under direction. Study With Lily frames questions the PN way, aligned to the 2026 PN test plan.

Does Study With Lily cover the PN Client Needs categories?

Yes. Practice spans all 8 PN categories, including the two with PN-specific names: Coordinated Care and Pharmacological Therapies. Every core Next Gen format is included.

I'm an LVN student in California or Texas. Is my exam different?

No. LVN is the title California and Texas use for the same license. You take the same NCLEX-PN® as LPN students in every other state, and the same practice applies.
