   Hi Mysweets,

   @nursesolu Congratulations!!!! I'm so happy for you, I'm not up to much at the moment, I'm working in home health with hopes of transitioning to a hospital, how about you?

   @Nursesolu, it is easy to get into home health, I actually started there as a lpn, and it was my first job with no prior healthcare experience, so if you would like to make money now, I would definitely give home care a try and maybe do volunteer work on the side until u are able to transfer to a hospital or something of your choice, but if you want experience, I would not stay in home health long term, I'm hopin to get into a RN residency program in my area as it is very hard to get into a hospital as a new grad

   @ Mysweets
   Thank you for your valuable suggestion. Well, i am foreign nurse and recently licensed in NY. But my problem is that i dont have SSN. Do you think home care will look for SSN when they hire? Which state are u?
   I appreciate your time

   @nursesolu, I'm in VA and I do believe that they will want a SSN for home health, I'm not familiar with your situation but is a green card an option for you?

And I am taking my test in 36hours, please help. What should i do tomorrow review the rationals from the 7 trainer or review my notes, I am very nervous (taking my test on 14 Feb, at 1pm). Thanks in advance.

   Congratulations! nursesolu, did you have many SATA questions on your test? Do you think Kaplan is similar to the real test? What were your scores for Qbank and the trainers 1-7?

    Hey @ Danaika
    Thanks..
    My scores are similar to yours. I think you got to be relax . Don't get nervous. Your mind need to be relax and you need to get enough sleep on the test day for you to work better .I will recommend you to review your notes. I dont remember exactly how many SATA questions. But there were quite numbers. You can do it.
