  1. PTT question

    Ok, I know normal PTT is 20-39 seconds. It is 1.5-2 times normal with Heparin therapy. It sounds confusing because I missed a question on Kaplan like that. The rationale says PTT greater than 150 alerts complication What do they mean??? 2x39=78, rig...
  2. Phd Nursing vs MD financially

    hey, guys I know there's a lot of nurses in here. Please tell me from what you know or heard. How much money someone with any of these degrees make???? M.D. PhD Nursing MSN ARNP CRNA Who makes more and how about the job opportuities. I don't know wh...
  3. Hedis 2005...

    Just got a job affoer on this. Should I dive in? I am a new grad
  4. New Grad pay in Jax area

    Then, maybe I should take my 27/hr in Miami. I will work nights with weekends off
  5. Kaplan scores! Need help!

    Have you reviewed your weak areas after each QT??? However, I am confident you will totally pass the NCLEX. Trust me! My test looked like QT 6
  6. Took Nclex on the 7th, I'm 99.9% sure I failed.....

    It works. Trust me. I failed the first time and it lets me register. Now that I pass, it would not let me
  7. 1st failed, 2nd failed, 3rd attempt underway NCLEXRN

    I see you sound very upset. Good Luck. As you do not need advise, that's the best I can tell you
  8. Am I well prepared for NCLEX now

    Concentrate on Kaplan and forget Saunders. Their questions are too easy. Do the QTS and review the 2 areas you scored the lowest on from your last test until you get to QT 6,7. Do those last 2 in different days and make sure you review the rationales...
  9. I hate SATA's.....

    Trust me. Those on Kaplan are 100 times harder than those on the NCLEX. My second question was a SATA. I was like then cuz I know for sure I nailed it. Do not overanalyze and do not keep looking for ways to select a choice. Just pick those you are ...
  10. I hate SATA's.....

    SATAs are not hard on the NCLex. Know Primary prevention (prevent complications), compliance and the disease/drug. That's the only way you gonna get it. If you never saw/heard it, don't pick it
  11. I know my studying was stop and go, but one thing I know for sure is I got Infection Control, Safety and Priority down hopefully. I spent good weeks on em. Now, Pharm meh. I test on Friday. Just finished QBank with a 60% completion. Not high, I know....
  12. Friday the 31st is the "Moment of Truth" for me

    Not feeling too good now. I wish I had changed the date I will come back to share my experience
  13. Friday the 31st is the "Moment of Truth" for me

    Thanks for your words. Here is a trick I use. I try to eliminate anything that is in excess first. 40 gtt/mn @ 10gtt/mL is 40/10 and you will have mn/mL or mL/mn.Hope it helps
  14. Friday the 31st is the "Moment of Truth" for me

    Well, I got as far as 4, that's it. I don't know what to say Finished all my Qbank with 60%. I can't stress it. I have reviewed those I got wrong and made sure I understood. Now, I am gonna review some stuff nad test for tomorrow. Ppl told me Qbank ...
  15. Friday the 31st is the "Moment of Truth" for me

    I tried talking to you on AIM, you went MIA :redbeathe Thank you for your prayers.
  16. Friday the 31st is the "Moment of Truth" for me

    I am testing tomorrow and I am anxious. I know my math is ok with Room assignments and some Infection control, but the little details :crying2::crying2::crying2::crying2::crying2:
  17. want to know backward and front method of med math

    No I did it in my Friday 31st thread. I don't know for sure though, but that's the correct way I know I also did a similar med cal in Kaplan and it was not that high
  18. Friday the 31st is the "Moment of Truth" for me

    1. We want mLs remaining @ 3:30 (1530 or 3.5 hrs) of 1000. Hang at 1200 Look for the time. 1530-1200=3.5 hrs or 210 mn 2. 40 gtt/mn @ 10 gtt/mL. Remember we looking for mL, right? So, we will say 40gtt/1mn=10gtt/1mL which gives 4 mL/ min as the rate...
  19. Friday the 31st is the "Moment of Truth" for me

    I know all I do about the meds is know them by class and suffices. I also know what is the most important teaching. For example, -cillin, Penicllin, cross allergy with -cef Cephalosporins. I may know some other stuff I don't think I know. Let's hope.
  20. Friday the 31st is the "Moment of Truth" for me

    Thank you. My sister knows the area, but my concern is the content. My question. Is the NClex as detailed as Saunders and Kaplan?
  21. want to know backward and front method of med math

    See, this is the reason I don't even care for Math because questions like this I can answer them from the top of my head, but my Pharm and High Acuity I won't answer becuase I don't wanna spoil it lol

  25. Friday the 31st is the "Moment of Truth" for me

    I am trying but I have always been this way. Especially I don't feel confident. I will review some stuff I believe I need to. Lab values, ABGS whit S/S, Shock, and specific highlights on Meds, then diet. Hopefully, it works :typing
