   Quick ? about diuretics

   C0SM0 replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in General Students

   I'm not sure exactly, but I started nursing school in January 2016 and our instructors told us to only expect generic names. They were right. I just took my NCLEX this past Friday, had 265 questions...

    Quick ? about diuretics

    C0SM0 replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in General Students

    NCLEX and SATA questions

    C0SM0 replied to Alexx_xox's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    What did you use for resources while studying? I'm using strictly Kaplan and I get MAYBE 10% of the SATA questions correct. Did you think the NCLEX SATA were easier than your resources for studying?...
