  1. Anyone fail with 75 questions??

    Yeap. You ain't kiddin'. I had 75 and know I missed 2 of the 4 math - which I knew how to do darnit. I did them all through critical care with ease. Tons of SATA's. The thought of studying,...
  2. generic & trade name

    I had select all that apply on most of my meds...so meds i thought i felt I had some sense about were now within those wretched sata's. I so don't want to do this test again and keep thinking there's...
  3. Does this mean I failed?

    I had 4 math quesstions and the first two were really easy, the last two were easy but I know I missed the last two. I don't like using computer calculators and I had to keep checking my numbers on...
  4. I think I FAILED..!

    Count yourself lucky that you ONLY had 2 SATA's. I had a disproportionate amount of them relative to the 75 questions I had when it shut off. I didn't even realize I was at the 75 mark and I assumed...
  5. You raise a good, good question that is on everyone's mind. There are people who did so-so on Hesi, below its standards, and still breezed through nclex with 75 questions. I take nclex in the morning...
  6. This Is How To Pass The Nclex!!!

    I realized last night that I had that delegation book all along...I'm a nut...kid you not, I have every book known to mankind in this house. I narrowed it to a few and packed up the rest for someone...
  7. This Is How To Pass The Nclex!!!

    The Borders near me has been out of that book...I guess I'll check one more time since my test is Thursday. Someone just gave me this from the Mark Klemek book someone handed down to her: Rule #1 for...
  8. 75

    I haven't tested yet but our meds pub lady reviewer who writes questions for the boards told us that if you have a float nurse who has to be assigned to someone in pediatrics, give them the school age...
  9. NCLEX Coma....

    ...let me guess, Viagra...don't take it with a nitroglycerin because of the vasoconstriction vs. vasodilation properties of each? The little blue
  10. Anyone Up For Random FACT THROWING??

    Or you can set it up this way: 2.4 mcg X 8.5 kg X 60 minutes 250,000 mcg/250 mL The answer is then 12750/1000...=12.75 The big thing is to make sure the mg and mcg thing is taken care
  11. California's newest nurse

    A guy in my class just said the same thing, that the questions were short but the competing information to choose from as an answer was what made it hard. I guess my question is this: everyone says...
  12. Just got home from the NCLEX...

    It's amazing how many people are answering the minimum amount of questions here. The average is 119 according to meds publishing. The thing that is intimidating about the SATA's is that you can't...
  13. I take my test on Thursday...I can tell you then. :^) I've lost track of the number of questions I've done, over 6,000 I'm sure. But, realistically, studying for 3 months may sound impressive in...
  14. July NCLEX Takers come on in!

    Yeah, it was confusing. Now I did just talk to someone who's been a PCA at our Children's Hospital and will work in ICU when she passes nclex and she said to make sure you differentiate the...
  15. NCLEX Takers Support Thread

    We could do a science fair project with "how many people passed nclex with faith" and "how many people turned to God TO pass the nclex"...giggle. My advice to anyone going to nursing school is this,...
  16. July NCLEX Takers come on in!

    Did you feel like the Mosby's Delegation and Prioritization helped? I have that too...I love Mosby's but some of the answers are making me wonder. Congratulations...all your hard work paid
  17. July NCLEX Takers come on in!

    Prentice Hall has a Pharm book which has nclex bullets for drugs...in case you're weak on drug classes. It's overwhelming but I am reviewing drugs these last 6 days, along with delegation and...
  18. It is official....the married couple passed the boards!

    In retrospect, what advice would you give on medication preparation for the nclex? I have a pretty good foundation on basics but when I do Mosby's med questions, it's just new material on some of the...
  19. Helpful hints

    Are you talking about the prioritization book at Borders? I think it's written by an employee of University Hospital in Cincinnati? Can you give me the name of the book and author? What's one more...
  20. NCLEX - just took it

    I have a question. I'm trying to find sata practice questions on the areas our reviewer said were common...such as trach, NG, etc. Does anyone know of a book with these specifically? I'd like to...
  21. Ncsbn

    I agree that books contradict themselves. The problem I had was that so much time went from prep for Hesi and then getting an ATT date - then planning too much time to prepare before an August test...
  22. Are Students Protesting HESI??

    The hesi questions on the cd are not always like the hesi questions on the test. The ones on the cd are easier. The only exception is if they throw you a few freebies from the cd. I think there are...
  23. Overall question

    Thanks. Your experience is similar to mine - our school made us pay each quarter for meds pub but those questions were easy and used for learning. The finale review had a good instructor but one...
  24. NCLEX - just took it

    A friend of mine just took it today and the weird, weird thing is I haven't heard anyone on this site talk about OB questions. His weakness was OB and he said it was the first question he got and had...
  25. Just took RN NCLEX

    Wow - what great news. All your hard work has paid off. Go sit by a pool somewhere and relish no books in
