Nerves of Steel...or Spaghetti

This week has been all about positivity! I am mentally prepping for my comprehensive ATI examination that concludes my nursing education at the University of Portland. I have ot pass this exam in order to take the NCLEX so I am quite nervous. My regimen to be prepared has been:

-read my Medsurge ati book cover to cover

-read OB, Peds, Mental Health, and fundamentals ATI books cover to cover

-take focused assessments on the ATI site

-take the comprehensive practice tests

-get lots of sleep

-get up early

-think positive!

-work out

-DONT think of the big picture

-make tasty meals :D

So far it has worked. I have to score a 73% on the ATI to pass. This equates to a 95% score on the NCLEX. GOOD. I just took my practice comprehensive and I got a 73.5! CLOSE so I need to get it up a bit more. I want more of a buffer for sure. At any rate...I'm feelin good and so eager to move on with this next chapter in my life. I'm SO excited!
