i took a quiz that said activity intolerance has a higher priority over Nutrition imbalance and Innefective Breathing patter. could some explain to me please this logic!!!

i always want to know why why why if i cant explain why i feel i dont know. i spent less time reading the books and more time googling why after that i found any question to be really easy on the topic. on the practice exams i went through every question even the ones i got, i researched them and tried to understand why A and not B...this was really helpful coz in the test they asked questions where the B would be the answer. i cant tell how much i retained for now until during CPNE or NCLEX

start with health safety, Differences, chronisity before the LS is my advice it will give you a great base of what the LS is all about

thanks, i wish i had your experience. i have very little but am a quick learner and am always asking questions to find out why am doing something. i think nursing should be more skills and less books and i cant wait to start acquiring that knowledge

also my background; i live with my parents so i took 1 month off work. i have no kids. i stayed in my room all day reading only left to refill my coffee so that also really helped. before i booked my exams i always asked myself if i fail what would more would i read? if the answer was nothing...then i booked it

sorry i have been really busy guys trying to get back to work after a month off....i have worked for 6yrs with the elderly which is my passion mostly group homes and home health...maybe this helped....i have a great picture memory that could have also helped me out....how much i retained, i honestly ask myself the same question....i dont know for sure only time will tell. i did it this fast because i study best under pressure if i give myself too much time i get out of focus and bored. i plan on spending 4 moths studying for NCLEX so am sure am competent enough. i would hate to make the school and the other students look bad later on. i know this is not possible for everyone i just wanted to give hope to anyone who might consider it. i have little EMS experience i work with private transport to Dialysis...soooo...yer i dont do much

i want to thank God for i would not be this far without Him. i would also like to thank all the people that posted on this site and either encouraged me or discouraged me enough to work harder. background: i worked as a paramedic for less than a year in a basic unit so i have no good experience since school. i also have no clinical experience. i enrolled in excelsior and finished the classes in 6-7 weeks it would have been less had there not been a slight delay with transcripts. i read daily 18-20hrs i used SG101(best product), Atinursing.com (highly recommend this it has all the recommended books summarized onling except 1) saunders(yellow book) practice exams on all(a must) i sometimes used NCLEX Q&A incredibly easy it has questions and explanations. LS 1 5.5 days (A) study more psych therapeutic communication was the majority of the questions. use the recomended book as well for more terms., LS 2 7 days (A) must use med surge book for pre and post op care LS3 7 days (B) tough exam, know all the drugs in SG101 even the antifungal. i got a B because of antiviral drugs, post op care was a big part in the tissue trauma. READ PEDS neurological and muscular conditions especially JRA and lupus Reproduction 6 days (A) easy just use SG101 and saunders Health differences 4 days (B) i failed in the sleep part prolly got a 50% Health safety 5 days (A) therapeutic communication!!! i don't know how excelsior wants me to answer the questions!!!!! cant get it Chronicity 7 days (A) was discouraged from posts which motivated me to sturdy harder. easy test. used all the above books plus googled chronic illness book and read there. .....i took transition just before i enrolled and studied 4 days (B) super boring what i would have done differently: started with the Essential classes or last 3 1st a lot of material was repeated in LS classes from here. spent less time writing notes and more time reading and understanding. less anxiety from other peoples failure. FCCA monday yei!! but i wish i knew what i was getting into good-luck to all of you and may the Lord have even better plans for you....
