just wondering how the exam went.....

Angelo3.... The exam went very well. I benefitted from the suggestions that were posted and studied the Standards/Practises. Relied on my experience and felt good going into the exam. About 2/3 of the way throught the exam I was not that sure I was passing and started to lose focus and think of when the next writing was. I then regrouped and remembered that my plan was to utilize the Nursing Process, Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and the ABC's to answer questions. Each question had two definite wrong answers and one answer that was according to AORN standards and one answer which was what I would have done... I chose the AORN standard answer every time. Then at the end of the exam I was grateful to see the report that stated.. preliminary results have suggested you have passed. Yeah !!!!

I am so happy and thank you again..... David
