NCLEX Practice Tests — California

In general you must meet the eligibility requirements, complete any required education or training, and pass the required knowledge test (and, where applicable, a skills test) administered through the California Board of Nursing. The exact steps, fees, and documents are set by California and are covered in the guide above.
