Need Help How to Study for Phase II LPN-BSN ISU Challenge Tests

Also, are you already in the program? How's everything going for you? any tips for me before I start in the spring? How was it to find your clinicals and get started? I heard its rather difficult finding locations and preceptors available when you want to start. If you could go back in time, what would you change or do to better prepare yourself? What information do you wish you would have known before you got set up? If you could give me as much advice before I start that would be great!

do the review questions from the TCN resource center help?

N328 was difficult but you can do it! Have you paid for your challenge tests yet through the computer store? If so, you can go onto your ISU blackboard and see the syllabus for N328. Study the diseases (for example, if my patient has this disease, should let him eat this? Should I take these precautions? In other words, nursing measures, judgement, etc.). I did not think that the modules were particularly helpful, but they give you a baseline. I passed the first time and only studied the modules (I dislike peds, too)! It would have been helpful to go a little more in depth on some of the more common diseases (like cystic fibrosis) -- if you see something like that, chances are you should google it (I looked at the Peds NCLEX for dummies study guide on google books) -- that really helps a lot. There are also a lot of practice quizzes on the internet that were helpful. Good luck -- if I can think of anything else I will let you know!

Also, if you know "normal" you are in good shape -- a lot of that is common sense on the test! I would review it & make sure you understand the basics.

Thanks!! for the info! its my weakest subject. were the questions on the TCN online resource center similiar to the test questions?

Alea,

May I have your email address, I can't seem to get the private message option to work on here. I would like to ask you something. =). Unfortunately, you can't post emails on here, so maybe you can private message me with your email?

804_LPN,

I was wondering if had already taken N328? Could you please private message me your email, I've taken the test yesterday and I would like to ask you something about the test? Thanks! I would send you my email on here, but apparently we are not allowed to display that info. =/

Has anyone complete N328- Nursing Care of the Child and Family. I would like to compare answers with someone. It should be on the blackboard website. If you log in, go to "Nursing Challenge Exams", Click "N328" on the left side and then on the left it shows "test 1", next to that it will say "review".

I just want to compare and review my answers with someone else. =)

That feature in blackboard has been turned off now. What a bomber! you cannot review again what you missed

Thanks chaxanmom! I am taking the peds test on Monday and this is great to know! I will review the developmental stuff now!
