Published

first let me thank you all guys and suzzane for this wonderful blog! This blog helped me alot to attain this success! from random fact and kaye's QnA thread and everyone else's experiences from the exam.

1. I read the saunders book 4x

2. answer each system after reading the book on study mode

3. took note of my mistakes and saved it on a note pad

4. I enroled in kaplan

5. Read Exam cram and linda charity prio dele which is a must!

6. Lastly, Prior to my exam I read all the note from saunders system I did from the beginning and repeated it from scratch

With all of that hardwork and consistency I stopped at 75 for 45 minutes. I had infection control, prio dele, abg reading, 5 satas and 1 calcu.

thank you all guys! cheers! we nurses rock! :D and goodluck to those who are going to take the exam. you can do it! but do it with hardwork and consistency. :wink2:

well i cant say linda charity is the only reason i pass :) its one of the factor. you will never know what question will pop up while your taking the exam so its best to review 1 comprehensive book (with 10,000 questions to be sure) + do it with linda charity and infection control updates at CDC website and your set to go.
