No judging. I have always tested near perfect since birth, NCLEX 4 times. Keep the faith.

I had just about every book out there. I would get down because I would be acing a set of cars or book and then do poorly with another. I suggest pick one and the lacharity book and just work them over. Good luck to all.

Everyone, especially instructors always said don't read too much into the question. Well, I say BS. Read the question try to gleen what they are asking, then look at the answer options. I was always in a rush to answer, because I did not want to over think it. STOP, READ, DECIPHER, the LOOK at the options. If I had done that in the first place I would have passed the first, second and third times. critical thinking is what is most important. You could know it all and if you do not use it to really understand what is being asked you will get it wrong. SLOW DOWN, PVT, it worked for me. Just make up a cc number, it you passed it will give you the good pop up, if not it will tell you you have a bad cc number. My friend and I did this, I passed, good pop up, she failed, bad cc number imputed. Good luck to all!

Read the question and make sure you know what they are asking before you look at the answers. Take your time. You can do it.

Cannot help you, but I am scheduled on Friday too. Good luck.

I took mine on Saturday too. It tells me mine are on hold. I hope it works on Monday.

Aww, thanx. That was sweet.

When I do the PVT I get the "on hold" message! This just stinks. I did not do anything inappropriate. I feel embarrassed because people are asking me about my pass/fail status.

ROME has to do with Respiratory and metabolic acidosis and alkalosis. Resiratory Opposite Metabolic Equal. RESPIRATORY ACIDOSIS: Respiratory acidosis uncompensated: pH acid (-) PaCO2 acid (*) HCO3 normal Respiratory acidosis partially compensated: pH acid (-) PaCO2 acid (*) HCO3 base (*) Respiratory acidosis totally compensated: pH normal PaCO2 acid (*) HCO3 base (*) RESPIRATORY ALKALOSIS: Respiratory alkalosis uncompensated: pH base (*) PaCO2 base (-) HCO3 normal Respiratory alkalosis partially compensated: pH base (*) PaCO2 base (-) HCO3 acid (-) Respiratory alkalosis totally compensated: pH normal PaCO2 base (-) HCO3 acid (-) METABOLIC ACIDOSIS: Metabolic acidosis uncompensated: pH acid (-) PaCO2 normal HCO3 acid (-) Metabolic acidosis partially compensated: pH acid (-) PaCO2 base (-) HCO3 acid (-) Metabolic acidosis totally compensated: pH normal PaCO2 base (-) HCO3 acid (-) METABOLIC ALKALOSIS: Metabolic alkalosis uncompensated: pH base (*) PaCO2 normal HCO3 base (*) Metabolic alkalosis partially compensated: pH base (*) PaCO2 acid (*) HCO3 base (*) Metabolic alkalosis totally compensated: pH normal PaCO2 acid (*) HCO3 base (*)

171 questions, 21 sata. Results are pending. Darn.

Practicing ROME and lab values. I am in NH.

Scared to death! Took LPN in Feb, 85 questions and passed. Instructor told me that those that take the LPN within months of the RN, fail the RN. He is also a Kaplan rep. So nervous. Did the Kaplan course 3 weeks ago, not a lot of studying since. Anyone else taking it tomorrow?

Is it worth it? I will graduate in May and our instructor is one of their instructors. He said we could get a $100 discount to take the Kaplan course. Not sure I want to spend $400 or not. Thank you. Janet

Took it yesterday at 8am, good pop up at 9:30, posted and assigned license number on BON at 9:00am today! PVT is awesome!!!

You passed! Congrats!!!! The first message meant that your scores had not been sent from the center to the main site yet.
