hi guys i just got an offer which i accepted as an acute dialysis RN at davita. my training starts in 3 weeks. i got the email, it states that i have to do the drug test, background checks, etc. and the main thing that i am concerned about is that i have to take a standardized math test which i have to get 90% correct. can someone please give me an insight about this topic? like examples of these standardized math test questions?

The last one I took was riddled with basic addition, subtraction, and algebra garnished with a side of drip rate calculation and drug conversion calculation.
Nothing too terribly scary. Just take your time with it and double check your work.
As a side note, when I read "Davita", Iron Butterfly's song "In the Garden of Eden" immediately began to play in my head as, for the longest time, my brother would belt out the lyrics as "And I gotta Davita, baby!" as opposed to the proper, "In the Garden of Eden, baby".
Don't ask my why I just shared that.
I just...I don't even...
::sigh::

There is a dialysis forum, under specialties. You might have more luck there.
