Over the semester we have had to take many ATI exams, with those exams we get Individual Performance Profiles. After looking at those profiles you can see what areas went wrong and who long you took for the exam as well. After looking at the profiles and taking the next exams, I realized that each time I took more time in total for the exam because I read through the questions more in depth and I also for the longer…
This semester I had to take gerontology, there were many topics that we went over, some that were a review and somethings that were knew to me. Two topics that I will take with me throughout my nursing career/ have provided me insight include the Beers criteria and pharmacokinetics of aging adults as well as the misconceptions about ageing. Overall, I will take many aspects from this class into my everyday life as well as my nursing career. There are…
I had to take the Comprehensive Practice B ATI exam and also do the remediations for this exam. After doing the first comprehensive exam, I did better, I got a 75% on this exam while on the one before this I got a 74%. I didn’t do much different I think that I just focused more on the exam rather than my surroundings and I took more breaks for this exam than I did for the other exam. With doing…
I had to take the comprehensive practice A exam and I think that it went better than I thought it would. I was a little nervous at first because I wasn’t sure what a comprehensive test would look like but overall, I think it went well. I didn’t know it was going to be 160 questions, so I took some breaks because it was a long test. I think that taking the breaks has helped me along the way and…
I had to take the ATI adaptive pediatric exam and I think that overall for not knowing too much for pediatric/ going into the exam with wanting to know more before taking it, I did pretty well for what I could’ve done the first time. I think that with the adaptive quizzes I tend to get distracted especially towards the end because I don’t know when they’re going to end so after doing 100 questions I’m done by that time….
We had to take the ATI Pharmacology proctored exam and I thought that I took my time with the exam but because it was with other people and some were don before I was, I was starting to get distracted towards the end. I do think that I knew more of the information than I originally thought but I do know that pharm is a harder topic for me, so before the NCLEX and any other big exam I will…
After taking the Pharmacology Practice B I feel better than I did with the first practice exam. I felt like I knew more of the answers and what the medications where. I didn’t have time to make a study guide for the medications that were asked about, but I was able to find a quiet and comfortable place to take the exam which I think helped the situation. I did notice that I was more confident when taking this exam…
When taking the Pharmacology Practice A exam, I noticed that even though I knew what the medications were, or I had heard of them before I didn’t know them in as much detail as I thought I would/ I needed to. I took the exam in a spot that was quiet, and I don’t feel like I got distracted but I do feel like I should have studied the topic more than I did. Many of the medications and remediations…
While taking the maternal newborn ATI adaptive quiz I noticed that there were a lot of questions that I knew because we had gone over most of the information but there were questions that even though I knew them, I still second guessed the answers. This is something that I have been trying to work on, not changing my answers. It is easier when I can’t go back and talk myself out of why my original answer is wrong when…
While taking and remediating the CAT pharmacology Adaptive Exam, I noticed many different aspects that I need to improve upon. One of includes that while I may recognize a medication that is in the problem, there were many that I had forgotten what they did or just didn’t know what they were. I also noticed that towards the end of the exam, I started to get distracted. I did take a break in the middle, but I think next time…
