I had everything mixed up in my head from studying so much...was way more nervous about this test then the others for some reason....but now i just have NC 5 left on july 31st and then ill be CPNE eligible!!! I can't wait!!! This board has def helped me a lot with all the exams!
Any tips for NC 5 from anyone?Psych isn't my strong point...

Congrats on passing! I just took NC5 today. Like you i was worried, psych and endrcrine are def not my strong suit! I made a B, it was the hardest test for me so far. Lots of psych meds and side effects! I just studied the college network module and it was enough. All I can tell you is really study the recommended diets for disease process/drug interactions. Also alot of dx tests specific to disease. Just study the module and you will do fine, good luck! I too only have one more to be CPNE elegible, I need Foundations. Any advice on that one for me?

Congrats!! Nursingchica: I did the same thing.. I had so many signs/symptoms stuck in my head.. I thought I was strong in cardiac/respiratory - that crap confused the he** out of me. I couldn't keep any of it straight!
Reading WestTx's post makes me wonder if I should tackle NC 5 next instead of NC 6? Such decisions!

i took NC 6 already and i thought it was pretty easy straight forward stuff....my biggest worry is def 5...but good luck to you either way you go!

Hello! The posts that you replied to are over 3 months old. I have done that myself. LOL! Anyway...When do you test for NC4? I test in 5 days on the 29th. I don't feel prepared, but are we ever really? Anyway...I am using TCN guide,ATI, files from the yahoo groups and of course the practice exams from excelsior. They have been very beneficial with my last 3 tests. This is the only one that I have not used studygroup 101 for, and I am worried about that because I really like their material, but I just did not use them this time. I hope that does not effect my grade. Anyway...Good Luck to you! Traci
