I passed !!!

Hi all,

i want to thank all of you who didnt know you helped me. all the advice and stuff to study and encouraging words put up. you guys rock!:bow: i just found out this morning that i passed. i had 75q and i was thinking please keep going i need more questions. i felt like i had to guess on so many and i had 30 SATA !!! I saw none of the common meds i knew. i though i was so cool knowing all about dig and lasix and all the other must know meds. but nope. i never saw one of them-only weird ones that i never heard of.

So for those of you who think you may have failed--cheer up. I think if you shut off at 75, you have a pretty good chance at passing. Just relax. I went a little too fast and missed some easy ones that i would have gotten right if i had thought it out more but i was so nervous.

If i can do it then so can you !!!!!:wink2:

I didnt take the kaplan class but i did buy their qbank. i didnt read any saunders or lippencott even though i have both of them. i had the evolve review book (from the hesi) which our school provided. i really liked that. try not to overload your brain too much in one day. also if the answer doesnt pop out at you-its okay. you can usually work your way through them...you have 6 whole hours!! i would say be familiar with infection control, priority assessments, delegation, major disorders from each body system. know vital signs each age group/lab values and growth and development stages. dont worry yourself about knowing all meds- you probably wont get the ones you studied anyway- like me! haha.

on a final note-you made it through school and you have it all in your brain more than you may give yourself credit for. :)

Thank you so much, i appreciate all the advice you have provided me. I will take all of this into consideration. I have been guilty of cramming too much info into my brain in one day. I bought the kaplan strategy book from a local book store and find it quite helpful when answering practice questions. I will certainly take my time when testing next time and carefully read all answers and think before i pick, i believe this was my problem the first go round. Thanks again!!!!:saint: And Congrats, now enjoy your new title. RN!!!:bow:

congrats!
