  9. Can anyone explain the logic behind nursing exam questions?

    I am not a straight A student but I have learned a LOT about how to answer HESI / NCLEX-style questions. First of all, you have to know the patho of diseases and you have to know about electrolytes...
  10. To drink or not to drink

  16. To own a pet or not while in nursing school...

    I totally agree with Elk. I have an 11 year old dog and I know I am not giving her the time I usually am able to give her and I'm not in an accelerated program. I don't think it would be fair to an...
  17. I've got two questions about precepting and I should preface my second question by saying that my middle name is Worry. We got our "clinical preference" cards today in class for precepting next...
  18. NCLEX / HESI Study Guide

    I've taken 3 HESIs so far and I can agree with the topical info that you gave for the psych portion for sure. I know there are other versions of the HESI tests but this seems like really good info....
  19. "Risk for" nursing dx vs actual

    I agree with the above posters that "electrolyte imbalance" and "infection" are medical diagnoses. Our teachers don't allow us to use that. If they have it, they have it and you can't use "risk...
  20. upper endoscopy question

    Think ABCs!! I have definitely learned to ALWAYS consider ABCs first, Maslow second. It has saved me many times on nursing tests.
