3. Am I the only one that doesn't like Saunders??

   zooz replied to Nightingale11's topic in NCLEX

   I'm reviewing with Saunder's Comprehensive and their Q&A book. I've found that I tend to use the Q&A book more often and usually only turn to the Comprehensive if I'm unfamiliar with something or need a more in-depth explanation. I started ou...

   What I wrote in a separate thread: I just got back from the CNA written test (last step after passing the skills) and *drumroll* passed it with 94%. I had four questions that I was kind of iffy about, so I put down my first thought. When I went back...

    zooz replied to DreamyEyes's topic in CNA/MA

    Sorry the first place didn't work out, Dreamy. Hopefully this place will be a better fit for you. And I have to say, I know what you mean about not liking the LTC environment. That was probably my biggest problem during clinicals. Congratulations o...
