   carlo_5 replied to Erica1019's topic in NCLEX

   I kinda felt the same way. I concentrated on OB, peds, and psych, butI felt like I just wasted my time after I took the test. Oh, well. Nothing I can do about it, but the imposrtant thing is that I passed. I guess it's better to have something a...

3. Lots of Select All That Apply...

   carlo_5 replied to healer27's topic in NCLEX

   carlo_5 replied to Bala Shark's topic in NCLEX
