Hi everyone!
I'm taking the NCLEX PN soon, and I'm freaking out about the SATA questions, that's my weakest point. I wanted some advice from others who have taken the test before, so that way I know how much depth they go into as far a knowledge base. I'm also a little concerned about lab values, I hate how much they vary depending on what resource you are viewing. Does the NCLEX have really high and low values so you know that they are abnormal, or are they really confusing? Thanks to you all in advance!

The sata questions are very straight forward and easy to decide what's right and wrong. I hardly had any lab values but if u do the value will be very abnormal don't stress it wasn't that bad!

The SATA were basic you know it or you dont. The whole NCLEX was that way. All lab values I had were within normal range but they threw them in to throw you off. Or there was a medication that is liver toxic and they had check BUN. Something like that.
Hope that helps relieve some anxiety.
Good that makes me feel a lot better! Thank you both for letting me know!
