SATA is not necessarily a "good sign". There are SATA questions at every level of the exam, and the computer selects questions from your current level at random. If you get a lot of SATA it is by...
Honestly at this point enjoy your free time! Once nursing school begins school will be on you mind almost 24/7. Chances are you may have to do classes during the summer. So enjoy this one while you...
That is would be considered about an average to light load at the school that I went too. In junior year we have Patho, OB, Med/Surg, and Pharm, and the second semester you have Peds, Med/Surg II,...
In my area there aren't any positions for LVN/LPNs to work within L&D or Postpartum. You have to have a minimum of an ADN and many places prefer BSN. In fact in many states there are little to no...
People who have not taken the NCLEX just do not get it! Don't get me wrong my friends and family have been supportive of me through my nursing school journey for the most part. But some of the things...
The NCLEX is really a whole other beast compared to nursing school. That test really is not like anything we have seen before. Like the pp said you may not be struggling with content as much as you...
First of all breathe! Second find a study source that is right for you and stick with it. Some use Kaplan, some Hurst, others NCSBN, and some just the Saunders book. Poke around this section and read...
Not a lot. Each section that you complete has on average about 20 questions and there are some practice question banks (10 I think) each with 10 questions. If you are looking to do questions I would...

There are a lot of things that nursing can offer you without having to be a bedside nurse. What you have to figure out is what aspect does make you happy, then look to see if there are job...
There are a lot of options that can be used to get ready for the NCLEX, some are like Kaplan and cost quite a bit, others are cheaper like the NCSBN. Look around this sections in All Nurses. There are...
Just try and relax, worrying at this point will not change your results (I know easier said than done). Take yourself out to some place nice or hide in a movie. Something to reward yourself and...
Congratulations! @happynurse14: SATA questions are in all levels of the NCLEX exam, the exam is completely randomized. The question selection is based only on what level you are on. The computer does...
I know what you mean. Family and friends really DO NOT understand what the NCLEX is like. To them it is just another exam only a little more intense and expensive. Like you most of my friends and...
I did the 3 week one (same material shorter access) and I found it very helpful. It covered the basics and must knows for every topic. There was also content that I felt was not covered as thoroughly...
Here is the one for the NCSBN-RN course... NCSBN's Review for the NCLEX-RN® Examination v7.0.1 - Students - NCSBN Learning Extension There is also a one for the PN (not sure which you are looking...
Nursing school is what prepares you for the NCLEX. I have heard good things about the Saunders book. Many people say they wish they got it sooner to help them through nursing school. I'm not sure how...
Just review the basics. Learn drug classes, know their most common, potentially life threatening ones, and unique side effects. Review labs, and brush up on anything you are weak in or have not looked...
I completely agree with you akulahawkRN. After 2-4 years of hard work and training we all know what works for us. It's best just to stick with what works and allow the appropriate amount of time to...
