I wonder if I can get mine to stay at 29. ??? I really don't want to be older than 29. LOL

Amy

I think I'll get to 35 and hold. ....Old enough to know better, young enough to do it anyway....old enough to be able to afford to do it, young enough to still be able to. HAHAHAHA (Now I just have to find out what "it" is.) :lol2:

I cried at 25....once I realized the high school kiddos were calling me ma'am, and I hadn't 'done anything with my life'. :uhoh3:

Great job Katie!! Only the final and HESI and we're outta here! You're passing and that is what is important right now. :monkeydance:

What was your class average?

What was your class average?

I am not sure yet. The instructor said that she thinks it's around 85%. We, as a class, have very good average (80-85%) on every test this semester. I do know about a couple of people who had to quit though.

Oh no! You guys lost some MORE people with this test?! :o That stinks...

I was just wondering if y'all's average was any lower than it had been in the past but it sounds like it's about the same. I was just trying to gauge the difficulty of test 4. :uhoh3: But it seems like it's about the same as the others I guess.

Well, OB was easier for me. There are so many itsy bitsy stuff to know for pedi.

Well.... I got a 92! I couldn't believe it.... I thought I didn't know so many of the questions.

Katie- Congrats!!! An 80 is great and I know you have a good average and you shouldn't worry. What is the name of the book those questions came from??? That really helped me so much and I need to go get that book!

Allison- Good luck on Test 4!!! I know you'll do well...

How are you guys reviewing for the final???? I don't even know where to start. I guess one unit at a time (reproductive, antepartum, etc). I plan to study for the HESI during the 4 days between it and the final... :lol2: .

Congrats Brie! I know that you have been worried, so I hope that helps you out. :)

As for a book needed for 2nd semester.....What's the name, and where do I get one? lol

:balloons: Congrats! :balloons:

I have a good chance for a B so I am OK. The book that you got those questions is Lippincott's Review for NCLEX-RN. I bought the 7th edition from half price books but there is a new edition out there.

Congratulations Brie! See aren't you glad you stayed!!! I'm so happy for you!

I am doing the same thing for the HESI - study between the final and HESI!

I am going to begin studying for the final after the test tomorrow and I'm just going to start from the very beginning slides and work my way up. I am mainly focusing on the slides so I'll see where that gets me. I am quite happy that there will be a little bit of time between this test and the final.
