Hey Future RN's & LPN's,
I haven't seen a group established for us!!! I wish everyone much success on their exam! For me I will be taking it for a 2nd time!! Please leave prayers, advice and words of encouragement to everyone in this group!:heartbeat
Ok should i stop reading and do questions or keep reading and doing questions? RNindmaking when should start focusing on meds??
You know what? Few weeks before the exam I was asking myself how to do good with pharm. What i did, i reviewed my notes and paid attention with endocrine, gastric,psych & cardio meds. I read the pharm section of kaplan course book. I didn't memorize. I just made myself familiar with meds. And then i aswered pharmacology questions from kaplan & saunders. remember when the question ask "the nurse should be most concerned",pick the most life threatening among the choices. if it's asking for early symptom, pick the least life threatening for ex.nausea. Neurologic problems are late symptoms most of the time like tremors,slurred speech,etc.
I hope this helps.
Don't worry to0 much! You can pass:wink2:
P.S.
I did 100 questions a day and then i read my notes from kaplan & saunders 1 week before the exam. I did review pharm 3-4 days before the exam.

i just read the Q6 rationale . i got 88% :typing. i'm reading NCLEX 311 now by R.A. Gapuz ,while listening to soft music to relax too, i like it bec. in 1 page there is 1 question and surrounding by content about the question. and it is handy. i hope my confident last up to the day of the exam. bec. when my anxiety start to increase, i can't focus .
