  1. free NCLEX questions online

    ladybugsea replied to berg13's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thanks for the suggestion of NCLEX-RN 3500 online. What I discovered that I like about it is that you can actually choose to have ONLY alternate items. This way you can stick to your regular 'plan'...

  2. Recommend me a SATA/alternative question resource?

    ladybugsea replied to sprtnbsblplya's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I also recommend the previous suggestion of nclex-rn 3500 online. You can actually choose to have ONLY alternate items....

  3. No test date, will Suzanne delete me?

    ladybugsea posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm done with tip #1 and met all Suzanne's requirements except that I am still waiting for my ATT. Will Suzanne delete my PM since I don't have a specific test date yet? I'm anxious to move on and...

  4. No test date, will Suzanne delete me?

    ladybugsea replied to ladybugsea's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thanks. She stated she gets 100s of PMs a day so I don't want to aggravate her by adding another to her pile. I think it is safe to assume that NOT having a test date would NOT fulfill her...

  9. ATI RN Comprehensive Predictor

    ladybugsea replied to pipersjo's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I will be taking it in a few weeks, will let you know what I thought of it. My school is requiring us to score >=75 or we have to retest. 74-75.3% on the ATI RN Comprehensive gives you a 94-95%...

  10. 75 questions! Anxiety is getting bad...

    ladybugsea replied to Nili927's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I recently read in an ATI pamphlet that said the NCLEX computerized adaptive testing (CAT) expects that you will only answer about 50% of the questions right. So with that tidbit, now I understand...

  12. Mastitis management question

    ladybugsea posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    My lecturer stated that management for mastitis included pumping and dumping because the breastmilk is loaded with bacteria. Do you think she just meant to dump any milk that was pumped in addition...

  13. Mastitis management question

    ladybugsea replied to ladybugsea's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Thank you so much. I know the info is wrong from my own experience with LLL, just wanted to make sure it was universally so across nursing (meaning RN, not breast!). I am going to bring it up with...

    ladybugsea replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in Ob/Gyn

    You could use Parenting, Readiness for Enhanced. That's what I used last

  15. TEAS Test?

    ladybugsea replied to Krystal_loves_babies's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It probably depends on the school. My school had a requirement that you score at least a 40 on each section to apply to the program. They said most people who get in score in the 70s, 80s,

  16. Pictures of bad practice from history?

    ladybugsea posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I'm doing a group presentation on the nurse's role in safety and quality. We thought it would be fun to have a few pictures of bad practice from history (ie a nurse doing a procedure without gloves,...

  21. Dysrhythmia help

    ladybugsea posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I tried a search and came up with nothing for dysrhythmia/EKG/ECG. Does anyone have any links or book recommendations? I'm trying to make sense out all this stuff, and lecture and the few strips in...

  22. Dysrhythmia help

    ladybugsea replied to ladybugsea's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I figured out the problem with http://www.skillstat.com/Flash/ECG_Sim_2004.html, in case anyone else runs across it themselves. It was a browser problem. It works with Explorer (PC) and Safari...

  23. Dysrhythmia help

    ladybugsea replied to ladybugsea's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Yes, I looked at those links. The first one Daytonite listed, I went through all the practice ECGs and they were mostly about MI and not showing specific rhythms that I'm looking for. Sadly I have...

  24. Dysrhythmia help

    ladybugsea replied to ladybugsea's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Daytonite - that site is too hard for me. I'm looking for the bare basics, like SR, ST, Afib, flutter, Vtach, etc. Any other favorites for the more simple

  25. Dysrhythmia help

    ladybugsea replied to ladybugsea's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Airforce - that site looks awesome but when I load it, it's super tiny, I can't read any of the words (except for 'The Six Second ECG' on the top), I can see a tiny waveform moving by. The whole web...
