Oh boy. Was there any EI questions or all clinical? Also do you have any good recommendations for resources to study to prep for the clinical questions? I feel like I have too many options for study resources but would really like to narrow it down to the best ones. Currently using my Barrons CCRN book (although I don't think it goes in depth enough for pathophysiology & pharm), Ninja Nerd on YouTube has always been a favorite of mine (he has great video on ARDS, shock states, pressors), CSPA podcasts.
Specifically, I haven't been able to find a great resource for pharmacology & receptors that common ICU drips work on.
This video is the best I've found explaining sepsis. Just figured I'd share it here in case it could be useful for others.

They throw EI and clinical at you and every question comes from a different member of the panel. They're all joting stuff down as you speak and it's super easy to let it get in your head. Just take it one Q at a time. Honestly I don't have any specific great resources. I would Google questions I had and it would take me to differently blogs. I'd look at their questions and look up answers as well as go over MOA of meds. I used the CCRN book and imagination LOL. We'll see how well that works out for me. I wish you the best of luck though!

I was expecting an email before the mail.
I'm just curious, do they send denial letters through mail as well? So nervous to open it 🥲
I just opened my denial letter 😔 I sincerely hope yours is better news!
