Hi and welcome to AllNurses.com!
I've never heard of this exam. Does your school recommend a study guide? Have you searched online?
Don't feel dumb about it. You'll get it!! :)
Good luck!
You Can Buy This Study Guide Book But Only Math, Science, And Aptitude Stuff Is In It. And Ive Searched Online But You Cant Really Find Questions For That.
Oh And I Feel Dumb Because I Passed Everything But The Easiest Part.
I'm not sure what kind of questions this has, but would an NCLEX study book help?
Maybe it's the type of questions you need to practice on? ....Choosing the correct answer, when they all could be or at least sound correct?
Good luck either way. Sorry I can't help more.
There Just Questions Like"If An Patient Asked For A Cigeratte And He Just Got Off Tha Oxygen Tank What Should You Do?" And One One Of Tha Answers Were Tell Him The Hazards And I Pickd That One. It Just Show You What Would You Do In Nursing Situations. I Dont Know If That Book Will Help. Well Thanks Anyway

I have also taken this exam in Pittsburgh for shady side school of nursing. I didn't have any of these questions but there were a lot of Natural Science and vocab. that I failed. I take my exam in March. I wonder if anyone has any ideas on how to study for the vocab? The questions asks what word does not belong:( I know I should know this but the words are words I don't know. The natural science are there any sites or books that would be helpful? I have the books that they recommend but I would like to have more resources. Thank you so much.
