Med-Surg ATI

[NurseB_, BSN, RN]

Hey everyone,

I'm getting ready to take the Med-Surg ATI in about 3 weeks. Ati's always make me nervous because of all the pressure our school puts on us. We have to make at least a level 2 on the test in order to pass the class and we have 2 chances to take it. I've taken several already and never have a problem with them but that comes with a lot of studying and prayer. I'm always super nervous up until the time I see my score because they are that nerve racking for me. I feel like my nursing career depends on my passing them, which they do. I wanted to know if anyone has taken this test recently and could give me some pointers. Was it hard? How would you study for it besides reading the ATI book? What areas should I focus on? What other tips could you give me? I also have to take the psych and leadership ones but I'm not as worried about those as the Med-Surg one, but I could use pointers on those too. Thanks everyone for your help!

Take the practice Med/Surg ATI’s and take the practice body system ATI’s. You will see similar questions on the exam as the practice ones.
