Who makes it and how it's checked

Kenneth Navarro, LVN
Kenneth Navarro, LVN
Licensed vocational nurse, California · Creator of Passclex

Passclex is made by Kenneth Navarro, a licensed vocational nurse in California who passed the NCLEX-PN and built the site for students preparing for the same exam. Because everything is written at the practical/vocational (PN) level — not adapted down from RN material — it stays focused on what PN candidates are actually tested on.

Every practice question, rationale, and study guide is verified against authoritative clinical sources — CDC/AAP, MedlinePlus, StatPearls, and drug package inserts — and the current NCLEX-PN test plan, and updated as those change. If you or a student ever spot an error, the feedback button on any page sends it straight to us so we can correct it quickly.

Accessibility

Many institutions have to check this before adding a resource to a guide, so here is where Passclex stands — plainly, without overclaiming.

Passclex is built to target WCAG 2.1 Level AA. In practice that means the site is fully keyboard operable (including the navigation menus, with a “Skip to main content” link on every page), uses semantic headings and landmarks so screen readers can navigate it, meets AA color-contrast ratios for text, shows visible focus outlines, and reflows without horizontal scrolling down to a 320 px viewport. Nothing is time-limited, and no login is required, so there is no session or timeout barrier.

We audited the site against these criteria and fixed what we found, but we have not commissioned a third-party audit and do not claim formal certification. If you hit a barrier — or need a VPAT-style summary for a review process — email contact@passclex.com and we will fix it or tell you honestly where we stand.

Common questions from educators

Is it really free, with no catch?
Yes. The study guides, practice quizzes, cheatsheets, and dosage practice are all free with no account required. There is a separate paid NCLEX-PN question bank at app.passclex.com for students who want extra practice after graduation, but nothing on the free site is locked behind it.
Do students need to create an account or share personal data?
No. Students can use every quiz and guide without signing up. Email is only requested if someone downloads a cheatsheet or worksheet PDF (a one-time unlock) or chooses to join the free study-tips list, and it is never required to study. See our privacy policy for details.
May I add Passclex to my library guide, syllabus, or resource list?
Absolutely, and thank you. No permission is needed. You are welcome to use any of the suggested link text or the citation above. If you would like a short description tailored to your program, email us and we will send one.
Who writes the content, and how is it kept accurate?
Passclex is written by Kenneth Navarro, a California-licensed LVN who passed the NCLEX-PN. Every question, rationale, and guide is verified against authoritative clinical sources — such as CDC/AAP, MedlinePlus, StatPearls, and drug package inserts — and the current NCLEX-PN test plan, and is updated as those change.
Is Passclex affiliated with NCSBN, ATI, or HESI?
No. Passclex is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by NCSBN, ATI, HESI, or any nursing program or testing organization. Those exams are referenced descriptively only. NCLEX® is a registered trademark of NCSBN.
Is it appropriate for LPN/LVN and RN students?
It is built for the practical/vocational (PN) level and the NCLEX-PN test plan. RN students often use the foundational guides and questions for review, but the focus and difficulty are aimed at PN candidates and exit-exam preparation.
