  1. Ls3-- types of burn dressings?

    Did you find the info you need? You are talking skin grafting? I can consult my Alexander's Patient in Surgery book & see what it offers. I think those are the 3 basic forms
  2. I got a B on LS2!!

    Thanks guys! How long did you prepare for LS3 K? I did this one in about 5 weeks, but I was gone on a cruise for one week during that time. I was so excited I had to post from the testing...

  5. LS 1 question

    I have not used SG101 for any exams except Chronicity. I found a few errors. I thought Saunder's was pretty spot on for LS1 and I take LS2 tomorrow but I can tell you for what I have done so far, I...

    I totally agree, but I did run into conflicting info between Saunders & Excelsior re: delusion intervention, blood glucose monitoring, and lithium lab ranges. I am really becoming frustrated...

  13. Lifespan 2 practice tests

    Thanks K. I have usually scored in the 70s on my practice exams, and like LS1, I would get an A. I scored 65 in Repo I believe, and I got a B on that one. This practice exam had me baffled because...
  14. Lifespan 2 practice tests

    K3104, you are a bit beyond this now but I just did a quick search as I just got a 61% on my 2nd practice exam for LS2 today so I bumped my test over from Fri to Sat. Did you feel the practice...

    I am not there yet anjule, but my understanding is there really isn't much of a wait for the FCCA. The wait that we are all worried about is when we finally get assigned our CPNE weekend (after...
  22. Ok- so what is it about LS3 thats hard??

    What did you use to study MsPC? Here is the one problems I fell Saunders has, in fact, I just posted this on EPN a half hour ago; I think that the review questions that Saunder's has are too...
  23. Ok- so what is it about LS3 thats hard??
