Free NCLEX cheat sheets for educators
Yes. All 50 NCLEX-RN cheat sheets are free PDFs, and you are welcome to point students to them. Share the link to a sheet’s page, so each student downloads the current, checked edition. Please don’t re-upload the files to a course site or reprint them for sale. For anything beyond linking, email support@rnpocketpal.com first.
How to share them
- Link to a sheet’s page, or to the cheat-sheet list, from your syllabus, learning management system or slides.
- Students download their own copy from that page. It is free, and no account is needed.
- Please don’t upload the PDFs to another site or a course shell, sell them, or change them. A sheet is withdrawn when its lesson changes, until it is checked again, and a link always reaches the current one.
- Want to print a class set, or use a sheet some other way? Ask us first at support@rnpocketpal.com or through the support page.
What each sheet is
Two printable pages per topic, written from the lessons of our NCLEX-RN course. Page 1 has the core tables. Page 2 has the priority and safety calls, the facts most likely to be tested, a short self-quiz with answers, and the sources. Each sheet shows the date of its last check. They are exam-study aids, not clinical guidance.
