  6. what is considered a normal respiratory rate

  7. Calculation problem

    i can do math problems all day and night, but this one just doesn't make any sense. however it is 2:30 and i'm sitting here charting at work, so i checked maxolon on the computer here, and it...

  13. First off, I have yet to take the NCLEX, and I'm NOT saying people who guess on any questions are unsafe, stupid, won't be or aren't good nurses, everyone guesses on questions from time to...
  14. That's what I like to hear. I mean even in NS, some people study 2-3 weeks for a test 4-5 hours a day and don't always get an A. But some study a couple of days before and just understand how the...
  15. MONA

    Oooh so you meant if it said with NO distractions, then it would be correct. But the fact it only says few or something, then there are still distractions present. Haha sorry I was tired last

    I haven't taken the NCLEX, BUT I can almost promise you yes to 1,2, and 3. I wouldn't say memorize the chart, but know about the circumstances surrounding them. What happens if they miss one, what...
  21. I searched, and the search results never really gave me what I wanted. So I apologize if this has been asked before. :uhoh21: I hear from many many MANY people that the NCLEX gives you both names, but...
  22. I know someone has some info . I'm not asking for specific drugs people got on their test(big no to that:nono:). But just wondering if it was hard because they really are picky random drugs only...
