Sequential Order Questions

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Hi, I read a post on here but can't find it now. A brilliant woman/nurse gave excellent advice on what to study for the NCLEX. She had amazing recall and hit the key points right on.

Since I've read her post, I've been trying to find information on sequential order for the following care delivery items:

Urine culture

Starting a new iv

Administering meds via g tube

Drawing insulins ( clear or cloudy)

Inserting foley catheters ( males and females)

Sterile field

Performing exams such as breast and testicular exam

Administering ear and eye drops

Thanks so much, I'm scheduled to take my nclex this Saturday, 8/31, ewww eeeh yikesss...I'm nervous :)

Hi chica, found it!! this is rich info, esp the key points, thank you!!

Finally...i'm glad...LOL. Happy Reading!

Hello Swanson and Chica,

I passed!!!!!!!! And got hired in a hospital, med surg and got hired teaching nclex courses, go figure, there really is a light at the end of the tunnel. Starting at $30/hr. :))

I found that Mosby was the most helpful and it's best not to spend too much time getting tripped up on the details of sequential order, etc. Practicing the questions is the best way to go about preparing for NCLEX in my opinion.

There were only two pharm questions, mostly priority and fluid and electrolytes. It's good to know the major complications associated with the main diseases.

Best of luck to all future NCLEX takers, you can do it.

what are some of the main disease would you say to focus on?

~mzelle~ Congrats and goodluck ...cant wait to share my nclex stories here!

Godbless!

Hi miniangel, so sorry it took me so long to get back to you, have been crazy busy. Are you looking for info on sequential order questions? There is a book with great reviews on amazon re: alternative questions for nclex. However, I must tell you, after taking the exam, there were only two drag and drop questions that I had and they were super easy. If I were to offer good advice, it would be to just practice those nclex questions from the books you already have and try to do no less than 3000 to 6000. YOU WILL REMEMBER. It's weird, when you take the nclex, after practicing so many questions, your recall is much stronger than you think it is.

Here is the info on that book:

Lippincott's NCLEX-RN Alternate-Format Questions 5e (Point (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins)): Diana L. Rupert RN MSN PhD: 9781451185454: Amazon.com: Books

This newly expanded 5th edition of Lippincott's Alternate-Format Questions has everything you need to be fully prepared to answer every type of question you will encounter on the NCLEX. More than 350 questions include multiple reponse questions, drag-and-drop questions, hotspot questions, audio questions, chart questions, graphic option questions, and fill-in-the blank questions. Also includes a comprehensive test with an additional 150 questions.

Best of luck to you, you will pass !!

Thank you! Just do those questions, that is the key, believe me. Don't over-study the content. Can't wait to hear your success stories!!

As a warning, don't expect because somebody else did or didn't get many questions on X, Y, or Z, or of different types, that you should expect the same. Not gonna happen. They have an immmmmmmense test question bank, plus there will be some (unspecified percentage) test items being tested for future use which will not be scored but you'll never know the difference.

GM Tea, I think that's a given, just stated what my exp. was. My point is, minimal memorizing and major question bank practicing. ok? ok.

immense is spelled with 2 m's, not 8. :)

My name is spelled GrnTea, not GM Tea. :)

Good luck on your test.
