Dosage Cal

Published

I have been taking dosage cal tests every semester and pass with a 100 on the second or third try. At the beginning of the semester I took it and made 100 on the first try. Now we have to take an exit dosage cal test and we have to score 100 to graduate from the program. I am on my third try and I have one more try or I will be kicked out of the program. I am scared and nervous at the same time. ;(

Just practice practice practice!!!! I literally do hundred + leading up to my dosage exam! You got this!!!!:)

Good day, Cashawn04:

Our school requires a pass rate of 100% every time we have to take the exam. Per the previous poster (PP), practice like crazy. I find DosageHelp.com - Helping Nursing Students Learn Dosage Calculations to be a great place for regular practice questions; I practice every day even though I don't have another test until later next year. While I try to keep practice up for all three methods (D/H * Q; dimensional analysis, and ratio), I find dimensional analysis to be the most consistent in terms of accuracy.

is a great video on learning / re-learning dimensional analsysis.

Thank you.

thank you for the comments

Youtube is a great source if u are a visual learner! Helped a ton for me:)
