  1. Lab values and numerical things

    kgh31386 posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I noticed that EVERY single book will give a different number for normal lab values. Whether it's electrolytes, CBC, cholesterol, etc etc. Also numbers such as normal urine output, amounts of sleep...

  2. What does the NCLEX want for RSV? Contact or Droplet?

    kgh31386 replied to david.cummiskey's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    WOO! point for me, I hope they aren't picky about all this stuff. I don't think they should put 4 diseases that are all droplet, and one has 1 minor exception in it, and you should be able to pick it...

  3. What does the NCLEX want for RSV? Contact or Droplet?

    kgh31386 replied to david.cummiskey's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Someone posted a question about this, asking which of the following pts requires just a gown and gloves..a lot of people said RSV, I think the others were Pertussis, Influenza and TB. Of all those,...

  4. Taking NCLEX without studying-Wanting honest opinions

    kgh31386 replied to mommy.19's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My honest opinion is I'm sure it's possible. A lot of people say that no matter how much they would have studied, it would have made NO difference. I haven't begun studying yet, but I found the Kaplan...

  6. Lab values and numerical things

    kgh31386 replied to kgh31386's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I would hope so, but in a practice test I had a question about calorie increase for a pregnant lady. I was taught 300, so I clicked that...no that test said its 500. Just like some people say oxygen...

    kgh31386 replied to adpiRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    That's what gets me...certain schools teach certain things differently. Kaplan might say morphine first, the NCLEX people might think differently..I still want to know what the NCLEX people say...

    kgh31386 replied to Laurinq's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I'm a guy and OB was just another class. No easier, no harder...just different

  9. I need advice, please.

    kgh31386 replied to happygirl11's topic in First Year After Licensure

    That's a good point, personal reasons are personal reasons. That's all they have to know. It'll work out, October is a while

  10. I need advice, please.

    kgh31386 replied to happygirl11's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Most people say that the Kaplan questions are "harder or more difficult" than the actual NCLEX. I like the Saunders 4th edition book. The LaCharity book looks promising too, others will chime in I'm...

  11. Starting a New Relationship

    kgh31386 replied to MegoEgo's topic in General Students

    I haven't started one, but I went into nursing school while dating a girl, and still am....no problems. It's up to the person. My vote....try it out, you never

  12. Is Nursing school Hard?

    kgh31386 replied to klott86's topic in General Students

    It's as hard as you let it be. It really depends on the person. Some people in my class study 6 hours a day EVERY day for 2 weeks for a test and barely make a C. Others will study a couple of days...

    kgh31386 replied to adpiRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    So if I see Oxygen first, or Morphine first..not BEST, but first. On the NCLEX...which would be first. We were taught nitro before morphine in school, but the NCLEX isn't school...that 1 question...

  17. MONA

    kgh31386 replied to adpiRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I wonder what page the NCLEX people are on? Well it doesn't say do morphine FIRST. It says morphine is BEST. So Oxygen maybe FIRST, but Morphine is the MOST

  18. MONA

    kgh31386 replied to adpiRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Was the question asking what would you do FIRST, or what's the highest priority? Morphine would be a highest priority I think, but everything else says do 02

  19. MONA

    kgh31386 replied to adpiRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Well should I guess Oxygen first, or guess morphine first. Because as far as MI medicating goes, I always heard give Nitro first x 3...and if that doesn't work THEN use morphine? I just looked in my...

    kgh31386 replied to cookiencreme's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  21. MONA

    kgh31386 replied to adpiRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    That's my point exactly. My Saunders book said to give O2 first, then Nitrates, THEN morphine...everything says something

  22. Saunders Study Exams

    kgh31386 replied to Just_An_Illusion's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    5th edition? Then why on earth did I get the 4th edition last

  23. kaplan can be depressing

    kgh31386 replied to jerzie0820's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    my worry is that Kaplan may not think the same as the NCLEX people. The NCLEX might say we should provide a safe environment for a manic pt, but Kaplan says let them sleep and eat. That's what worries...

  25. kaplan can be depressing

    kgh31386 replied to jerzie0820's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I read through the strategy book today, and I felt the same way. Some of the rationales required me to basically make up a life story about the pt, and then say oh yes of course this is right. But...
