Just took the boards today, got 75 questions and passed. I used Kaplan, margaret dahlhauser and learningext (which was the closest in my opinion). Kaplan was harder, but prepared me for the SATA and the meds questions. Margaret Dahlhauser, helped me with the CAT experience.
hi , i have a question, isee that you used kaplan.. and you said it only prepared you for sata, so you dont think that it prepared you for the priority questions.. im taking kaplan as well..and they teach great stategies in class such as maslow, assess vs implementation, safety.. and how to choose the best answer.. i didnt pass my first time, and it was because i ONLY used saunders.. and it DID NOT help me at all.. the questions on the exam were so hard..
do you think i should get learning.ext? is it worth it?/ please help.. i really want to pass this time, any help would be appreciated.
