Numbers on NCLEX that are out of range are generally obvious like potassium of 7 or bicarbonate of 35. Or the ranges are listed in the question in my experience.

Ive seen bicarbonate being 22-26 and others 22-28 but, on nclex and practice questions, the labs will be way out of range. For example, I learned that calcium is 8.6-10 and another 8-10 but, o nclex practice questions, it would say calcium was 5 or 16.
