I passed, it works!!

I got the good pop up and ended up passing. It works!

I was wondering the same thing, so I emailed Kaplan about it. I also searched the threads on here and everyone seems to say that there are instructions either at the beginning of the Kaplan test or in the actual question. I'm not sure if those people are talking about an older version of Kaplan, but there are no instructions anywhere. Here is the reply I got from Kaplan, which I unfortunately didn't find helpful at all (but maybe you will!) Here are the rounding rules from the National Council. National Council will list rounding rules on the math questions, so just follow their directions. The rounding should be done at the end. Whether the nurse rounds depends on whether the medication can be administered in the dose calculated. Example - 0.88 ml can be administered in a tuberculin syringe because it is marked in both tenths and hundredths. If the dose is 1.88 ml, it will be administered in a 3 ml syringe which is marked to the tenths place so the nurse would round. If the dose is 3.88ml, it would be administered in a 5 ml syringe which is marked two tenths (.020). If you round up, it would be 3.9 which puts you in-between 3.8 and 4 so you would drop the .08 and administered 3.8 ml.

Okay I think I have enough posts now to pm!

I don't know what the acceptance rate is exactly, I would recommend you call the nursing office or admissions for that information. I do know that it is highly competitive, and that your best chance of getting in is as a freshman non-transfer.

congrats!!

I would love for someone to send me that document, but I don't think I have enough posts to PM!

I've never heard of the La Charity book, I'll have to look into that

I've heard good things about Kaplan. I'm using it, and I like it so far!

I'm taking it in July as well! I'm using Kaplan to study. I also have a Saunders book that came with the CD of questions, but there are SO many practice questions for Kaplan that I'm not sure I'll even have time to use anything else to study. Good luck everyone!

I just watched the newest episode of the show (thank god for TiVo!) and my god, the ending was incredible, and yet so horrific at the same time. That's terrible that things like that actually happen in Dafur, I'm going to go do some research now!

Oh god I'm obsessed with ER too. I love Dr. Carter, I want him to come back!
