Practice SATA by topic
1,200+ SATA questions across all 15 body systems. Pick a topic to focus on.
Select All That Apply (SATA) gives you 5–6 options and asks you to select every correct answer. Unlike SBA where you pick one best answer, SATA requires you to evaluate each option independently. You can earn partial credit for selecting some correct options, but selecting any wrong option scores the entire question as incorrect.
Why are SATA questions so hard?
With SBA, you can sometimes eliminate wrong answers to find the right one. With SATA, there is no shortcut. You must know whether each individual option is correct or incorrect. You are assembling a complete clinical response, not picking the best single action.
How does SATA scoring work on the NCLEX®?
SATA scoring on the NCLEX® rewards correct selections. Selecting a wrong option can significantly reduce your score on that item. This means being confident about what to leave out is just as important as what to select. Check the NCSBN website for the latest scoring details.
