Hello everyone, this is my first thread and I am wondering if there is anyone out there have any suggestions of a book or website to practice reading EKG strips. I am a new RN and got a job at a cardiothoracic stepdown unit. One of the requirements i...
Quite a story. I like the way how you detailed your morning start. I'm like you, I had about 8-10 SATA and felt that out of those SATA questions, I was only positive to have one definite correct answers. The rest of them, I didn't have any clue if I ...

Congratulations! I am positive you'll be seeing "PASS" when you check Pearson Vue. Before I took NCLEX, I had ask most of my classmates whether they re register and all of them got the good pop up. I kept telling them to believe me it means they pass...
To all of us who took it yesterday, the best of luck for us! Does the message on Pearson vue ever change? I tried the trick an hour after my exam and I'm a Lil relieved it didn't let me register. I felt like I answered a thousands of meds questions. ...

I can still feel my heart beating real FAST! Took my NCLEX this morning at 8am. I tried to re register and it says ----"Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Please contact your Member Board for further assistance. Another...
Thanks. I'll see if I can get the book at barnes and noble or borders. I take it end of next week. I know it sounds not ideal to get that book since I don't really have enough time. Uve been going over infection control and I'm getting a lot of those...
Okay got it. Thanks! Ugh, I wish I have enough time. It worries me when someone says review content and you'll be fine. I've been just answering questions and my scores does seemed like I do need to review the content. I do go back and review them bu...
Hello Keldel, I am currently answering questions from Lacharity and oh my they are hard. I mean some of them are easy but any advise on how you would answer prioritization question? I do know to focus on ABC (cardiac and circulation) + V (vital signs...
Hello mzznurse, thanks for threading. Last night, when I read your message, I immediately went back and listen to the audio version of the topic I was weak at. LOL. I kind of did that for awhile. I stopped because I thought they were pretty darn long...
Wow, a 64%? That is awesome! You did great! Yeah, reading/reviewing contents and listening to audio lectures or even talking it out yourself really increases your knowledge. I mean you can't go wrong with that and with the Kaplan questions they have...
Hello katyn213, it makes me feel good when you stated you used Kaplan only. I'm done with all the qbank questions and I'm left with the QT7 which I am planning to take tomorrow. I plan to retake those questions I missed in the qbank and probably re ...
I know how you feel. But pleaseeee don't give up! Never have a day you dont answer questions, review a content or listen to an audio lecture. Really understand what you're reading. If you have enough time, go over and over the materials again. Practi...
The instructor told us in class that it Is safe to score at least in the 60's. If the score is around 50s, she suggest to go over content review. From what I'm doing right now since I'm taking my exam in a short time, I review every rationales and a...
Ibelieve4187, yes I'm trying to go over the content going back to the questions I'd get wrong. I'm not consistent with it though which I know is a problem. I was about halfway reading the RN Kaplan Course book. I stopped because I felt it was too muc...
Congratulations!!! There is HOPE for me. :) But I wanna ask you, what review materials you think helped you pass NCLEX? Were there any materials you used you found helpful? I'm taking online Kaplan. I have the Lacharity book which I haven't really an...
Congratulations by the way. :)Thanks for sharing. I take mine mid next week. Taking NCLEX for the first time and I'm honestly nervous. My question trainers Q1 57, Q2 51, Q3 52, Q4 51, Q5 57 and I just did question trainer 6 and got a 58%. Finished th...

You did GREAT! Congratulations! I have Kaplan 2011-2012 strategy book and doing Kaplan on demand as well. I'm surprise you didn't even get to do question trainers 6 and 7 and 33% on the qbank and still PASS it! Superb! How did you answer each questio...
Hello CatD, try not to feel bad about it. Although, PVT is reliable, you could pass it. You never know. If ever it does turn out the other way, don't hold it back against you. Pay more attention to your weaknesses, review the contents which I think ...

Hello Neil, I love your story. Thank you for sharing it. It's funny. Facebook? LOL, yeah I'm beginning to think I need to deactivate it. It's so much of a distraction. I was born in PI, came here right after high school. I graduated last month and no...
