Just got a job affoer on this. Should I dive in? I am a new grad

Then, maybe I should take my 27/hr in Miami. I will work nights with weekends off

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

It works. Trust me. I failed the first time and it lets me register. Now that I pass, it would not let me

I see you sound very upset. Good Luck. As you do not need advise, that's the best I can tell you

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. I would tell QT6= my Nclex mostly

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 sure of or those that would make the patient safe (siderails up...) and those that promote health (exercise, no smoking, sleep...). The main part is what they askin g you. Are they saying you should pick smth wrong or smth right. I HAD TONS OF THEM. I had probably 10-20. I was just to ease my anxiety. SATAs count for a whole lot because a SATA can be a combination of 2-6 areas. :argue: I will make a detailed thread plan on how to pass the NCLEX easily tomorrow. Found out I passed!!!

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

Not feeling too good now. I wish I had changed the date I will come back to share my experience

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

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 helped more than Qts

I tried talking to you on AIM, you went MIA :redbeathe Thank you for your prayers.

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:

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

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 before infusion even starts. 3. At 330, it would run for 210 mn. We don't know how many mL will be delivered for 210 mn, but we know for 1mn we have 4mL. Look at 2. so this gives 4 mL/1mn=XmL/210 mn which gives 840 . 840 mL represent what will be given over 3.5hrs 4. Question asked what will be reamaining, so they want the difference: Initial Volume (1000mL)-Volume run over 3.5 hrs (840)= 160 mL Hope I am right.

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.

Thank you. My sister knows the area, but my concern is the content. My question. Is the NClex as detailed as Saunders and Kaplan?

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

:wink2:

Well, I don't know what I will say tomorrow I feel like I should reschedule. I was feeling confident all week though

Thank you. You just put a huge smile on my face I won't let you guys down :wink2:

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

I said a prayer for you and everyone on this site. I am thinking exactly like you right now. We will be

:yeah::yeah::yeah::yeah::yeah::yeah::yeah::yeah: God Bless you! He never leaves you halfway. COngrats

Doing QT4 and the questions look similar
