How should it be answered during the real thing? Will they require a specific answer for it to be counted correct or will similar ideas / another term will do ok? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that you answer up to 2 decimel places. But watch for unit conversions. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They seem to be one of the least common types of the alternate-format questions. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will they require a specific answer for it to be counted correct or will similar ideas / another term will do ok? From my experience, the fill in the blank usually only applied to the math questions. I would love to hear from anyone else who had a different experience. I used to get frustrated with those as well while using the Mosby CD because I have bad spelling. One letter wrong, and the computer counted it as wrong. My first question on NCLEX was a fill in the blank math question. Thank goodness that was all I got. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They seem to be one of the least common types of the alternate-format questions. True, true...I got mostly 'pick all that apply' (the nightmare ones). I am grateful that I didn't get any diagrams or having to place certain things in order. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Swtooth You MUST put down mg, mL, etc... and the decimels in the right place. I think that you have to round it down to two decimal points to the right. Mine came exact on NCLEX, so that wasn't an issue. I think it had something to do with how many mLs to place in a syringe. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
