Nursing exam questions

Exams are over, and I am just bored and tired. All my friends are either out on vacations, or are busy with their Gfs. So, just ask me anything, tell me anything, stories, questions, secrets, whatever. I just don't want to be either asleep or working the whole damn time

Hello HR friends!
I am looking to start studying for my PHR. I bought the HR Book of Knowledge by Sandra Reed and have been doing tests and questions on pocket prep, but looking for other resources to help me get prepared.
A friend of mine gifted me her whole HRCP exam prep material with all books and flash cards, but it’s from 2017. Should I still use this or are there any other low cost resources you all would recommend?
TIA :)

I just signed up for my Provincial exam through Durham college. I had a few questions - The HLLQ course that I completed had a calculator and an open book available for my reference, through the proctoring system. Will that be the same for the provincial exam?

• Can I use a blank scrap of paper for my calculations?

One of my mentors that gave the exam, almost half a decade ago, pointed out that the exam did not allow for an open book or a blank scrap of paper. The website states nothing regarding this, hence the confusion.

Hello Folks. I am planning to apply this application cycle and find myself in a predicament after receiving my mcat results recently. To provide you context, I was a psychology major in college and completed all the standard pre-medical classes except for biochem which I self-studied for mcat prep. I went to a small liberal arts school where I had a GPA of 3.78. I generally did very well in my pre-med courses except for gen Chem where I struggled early in my college career. My mcat prep spanned a 6 month period with total hours studied at 760 hours. Below are my results of my practice exams in order:
11/18/23: Blueprint diagnostic: 502 ; 12/1: BP FL 1: 504 (126/125/125/128); 12/8: AAMC FL1 505 (124/127/125/129); 12/15: AAMC free scored: 502 (125/124/124/129); 12/29 BP FL 2: 505 (126/125/126/128); 1/5: BP FL3 504 (125/126/126/127); 1/19 AAMC FL2: 504 (125/124/126/129); 2/9 BP FL4 503 (125/125/125/128); 2/16: BP FL5: 505 (124/127/127/127); 2/23 Princeton demo 499 (123/125/123/128); 3/13 BP FL6: 502 (125/124/125/128); 3/22: AAMC FL 3: 509 (126/127/127/129); 4/5 AAMC FL4: 505 (126/125/125/129); 4/7 AAMC FL unscored: B/B (127 concerted), CP (127 converted)
Actual Mcat 4/12: 501 (127/123/125/126)
After each practice exam, I took the advice of many successful test takers and recorded the questions I got wrong and added new flashcards to the milesdown Anki deck. I also purchased the uplanet mcat q-bank and did every single question and re-did every question until I got 100% correct for all sections (except for orgo since I ran out of time). I generally studied like it was a full time job, around 5 hours each day over this 6 month period. Also, I did all the AAMC question packs. For section banks, I was around 65% for all 3. And for the bio volume 1 and 2 questions I was at high 70 % on both. For the independent Q's I got >80% on all sections. For chem and phys practice q's I was at about 70-80%.
My goal entering mcat prep was to study extremely hard to try to achieve my goal score of 515. I'm honestly shocked at my actual mcat score and don't really know where to go from here given how much time and financial investment I've devoted into preparing.
I am considering retaking the exam soon, but wanted to gauge opinions and when would be the latest I could retake with this current application cycle. I essentially have my primary finished already and was planning to submit in the first week of June once I got my mcat back. Thank you for any advice.

I am a bit in shock. I studied for 5 months, did not go out during that time, had long library days, etc.. I took my diagnostic exam (BP) last summer and scored a 503 (before even taking biochem). My BP FLs increased from 505 to 510, and the AAMC FLs were all around 510. Therefore, how is a 501 possible?
Not to apply the fundamental attribution error to me but: Was it an issue saving my exam answers? The exam was a bit glitchy, and there are many Redditors who said (the test day after) that their entire exams didn't load or some questions just said "Error" (and their exam was cancelled). Could it be an AAMC issue that weekend?
On the other hand, could it be a severe case of test jitters / anxiety?

I'm just so tired, really tired. The entrance exams to colleges have took a toll on me. And the academic stress is just to much, to top it all off I had a fight with my sister too to the extent that we don't talk nowadays. i was so badly hurt by whatever happened between us, it made me write this:
"I do not want you back in my life anymore. I'm just done with you. I sacrificed my pride in order to fix things with you. You can call me egotistic if you want because ego and pride are used interchangeably sometimes too. You lack the basic cognitive skills to understand and acknowledge what the other person is going through, in laymen's term - you're a dumb idiot. You are the reason of my sleepless nights, my crying (which you compared with your panic attacks). I do not cry often, you should remember that. Yes, i do act immature sometimes when I do not want to lose something or someone. But I also love hard, which you don't deserve now. You were just like the others, it was my love that made you special. I still do not know why you've had such a great affect on my mental peace and its health, but congratulations on hurting your own brother. You have this quality of hurting everyone, be it stranger or your known. I still go through the screenshots of our chats and cherish the old you, because the current you is horrible. Whenever I was giving any exam, the only thing apart from my brain processing the questions was that I wanted to make 3 people proud - mom, dad and you. I thought if I work hard, then you'd follow suit, which was clearly a miscalculation on my part.
I'm glad you are happy without me, because I know I can be difficult to handle with but I was not someone who didn't deserve a second chance. I did everything in my power to fix things with you and guess what, you never even checked on me. This tells a lot about your personality.
Remember this all started because I asked for some rightfully earned respect 2 months back.
Good luck with everything you're gonna do and just fuck off from my life, i really don't want to see you ever again. I think you wouldn't even care if I go abroad or die.
Goodbye"
I'm just tired of life as a whole.

Me and my brother currently share an apartment together, sharing all the normal facilities (ie kitchen, washing machine, etc.). However as of recent, living with him has been tough as although we were both studying (me for my 3rd year of college final term exams and him finished college after a gap year looking to get into a post graduate degree), the work load in keeping the apartment clean and buying food fell onto me 90% of the time, with no recognition or gratitude of me trying to look after both of us.
Don't get me wrong, I love my brother and he's recently had a tough time with health issues (family history related) a year ago that have only subsided at the start of this year, so anything I could do to help him then was done without looking for anything back in return. But nowadays, he completely just assumed that I had to clean up everything after him and would ignore the fact that I could barely support myself in the stress that is studying for an important academic year of college (weighing 50% of my overall degree) , being more annoying considering he's one year older than me and in asserting this, always assumes that his work is more important than mine because its 'not as hard as the work he's doing'. Condescending A-holymoly.
Anyways, onto the bottle, his sweet sweet prized metallic 100 dollar 1 Litre bottle with all sorts of memories put on it. If this lad could save anything from a fire, he'd lock the door on the family to keep this prized possession safe.
After 3 weeks of tension building up, I wake up to find the kitchen in a complete mess after he had friends over, whilst he's studying at the kitchen table. A LITTLE annoyed, I continued to try get on with my day, grab a few snacks and leave his presence, until he decides to say ''can you for could for once just clean up the kitchen, I'd really appreciate it''.
Insert Kurt Angle's dumb face here.
In confronting this question, telling him to basically f off I'm stressed enough as it is, the dumb eejit decides to starts to go for low hanging fruit, insulting my introverted social life and in trying to respond to him, he starts gesturing to me to go away. In seeing the poor poor bottle, I found the only way to get through to him was that poor poor bottle.
Thus, I picked it up, opened the window and aimed it at a bush outside, hoping it would land safely in natures embrace and to give him a moment of panic. Oh was I shy of the bush, instead whacking the plastic part of the top of the bottle clean off a metallic plant pot.
To say the man lost his fart is an understatement.
Not knowing I broke the bottle top, I walked off smugly, with the tension of the last 3 weeks being released. However, upon seeing the Tasmanian Devil running towards me, that catharsis went straight to guilt. Stupid metal bottle.
Am I the asshole for breaking his bottle?

So I personally am not as interested in fashion/ nift and more into ui ux but in all my design exams that I've given so far I've noticed that I perform better in aptitude and general knowledge based section like my uceed rank was 326 because part a went well and nid rank was like 1xxx with a bad score in the drawing section. I had no idea about design till like a month before uceed so I am quite new to this style of thinking but I am questioning whether design is the right choice considering my strengths or should I be doing something else and if yes then what

First off, note that my story has a happy ending (thus far.) But, mine is a case where I almost didn't even call for advice, and I'm so glad I did. I just wanted to encourage any other (especially first-timers) who like me, hemmed and hawed about going in for observation and explain why I have zero regrets about actually going in. This will be stupidly long but I really want others to see a non-scary story to just go if you have any question at all! TL;DR at the end for those who want it.
I am 29+5 today, and yesterday had a super minor fall at work at the end of the day. As in, I went to sit down on my rolling stool, missed slightly, and landed on my butt. I have to emphasize, I thought it was really no big deal - I fell almost in slow motion, didn't hit my belly, and was MUCH more embarrassed than hurt.
My baby even kicked me right afterwards as if to say, "Geez, Ma, what are you doing out there?" No cramps, no gush of fluid, no bleeding, and he was moving just fine.
Still, I had read plenty of times on this sub reddit, my baby books, and other sources that pretty much any fall at a certain point in the pregnancy warranted at least a phone call to the doctor. And my quick Google when I got home reiterated the same. Literally every single result said to call. So I did, and immediately buffered my question with "I'm sorry because this is probably a waste of your time, but I'm X far along and had Y type of fall happen, so I just wanted to do my due diligence and call." The receptionist was so lovely and didn't make me feel like a waste of time in the least bit.
She saw on my chart how far away from the hospital I am (40 minutes give or take depending on traffic) and said that since I wasn't having any bad symptoms and baby was moving, chances are the nurse wouldn't ask me to come in, but she wanted to make sure. A brief hold later and she said, "Actually, we do want you to come in to labor & delivery for a 1-hour observation, just in case. Any fall at this stage is worth getting checked out."
My heart sank a bit. I was honestly not even worried, and I hated the idea of wasting the gas, time, and whatever the observation would cost for them to just tell me everything is fine. On the flipside, obviously I take my son's safety very seriously, and decided that there's probably a reason they have a blanket recommendation to come in after a fall, even after I took pains to explain how much of a nothingburger it seemed to be.
Nonetheless, my husband and parents both insisted that I was doing the right thing by going in, and that they would all sleep better tonight knowing baby and I were both okay. My own birth was an emergency c-section at 30 weeks after my mom's amniotic fluid disappeared and I'd stopped growing around 26 weeks, so I can understand why my folks were of the better-safe-than-sorry mindset.
To try to make a long story short, we went to the hospital, they got me back right away because it was super quiet, and got me settled in with monitors. I could hear his heartbeat straight away, nice and strong, and heard, felt, and saw his kicks against the monitors lol. I already felt glad that we actually came in, because I think I was almost more afraid of the process of getting there than of anything actually being wrong. Plus, my next appointment isn't until the end of this month, so it would've been a long time to wait and wonder. After almost an hour, the doctor came in to check on us, and that's when I was utterly convinced this was NOT a waste of time.
She explained that my baby was looking great, but that I was having low level contractions (!!) She asked if I could feel them, but I couldn't, although I wasn't sure if that was because he was moving so much, or if they really weren't noticeable. She said this was normal after a fall, but could also be due to not eating enough or being dehydrated. I'd eaten a fairly normal amount yesterday and hadn't quite hit my water quota but had had a lot (maybe between 40-50oz?) So they had me stay another half hour or so just to make sure the contractions either stayed the same or slowed down. If they didn't, they would probably want me to stay 24 hours.
Luckily, at the end of it, they said the contractions slowed from when I first came in, and let me go. They just said to watch for any signs of premature labor.
All of that to say, I'm glad nothing too scary came of it (yet at least!) but I definitely learned my lesson not to overthink it about coming in. They recommended that I ask for a solid chair with a back at work, and said I could get a letter from my doctor issuing an accommodation for it if needed, which I appreciate. Otherwise, just going to be a little extra careful and wait and see. Hopefully my little one cooks for a while longer!
TL:DR - 29+4. Had a seemingly very light fall onto my butt at work, decided to call it in just to be safe, assumed I wouldn't have to go in, did have to go in, hemmed and hawed about it but I'm glad I went, because baby was fine but I was having light contractions and didn't know it. Contractions slowed down and I got to go home, but learned my lesson about not hesitating to get checked out!

Please help me with this question:
A chinook helicopter flies at a height of 4km overhead. The distance between the 2 rotors is 25m. You observe that the intensity of the sound keeps going up and down and note that the time between successive intensity maxima is 5 seconds. The sound produced has a frequency of 60Hz. Assume the speed of sound is 340m/s, the wavefront propagate in circular fashion, and the rotors are point sources of sound. What is the approximate horizontal speed at which the rhinoplasty is travelling with respect to the ground, given that it is travelling straight towards you?
170m/s 181m/s 90m/s 225m/s
Please don't beat around the bush I really just need a clear explanation on how to solve this as I have an exam tomorrow.

As a first-year college student enrolled in an engineering program, I find the coursework challenging, but I remain dedicated to my studies. I'm aware that before entering the second year, there will be an exam, and failing it could necessitate a change in my course of study, even as a regular student. Nursing is my backup plan, and I'm currently searching for schools in my area that accept transfer students from engineering programs. Unfortunately, my application to one preferred school was unsuccessful as they don't admit transfer students from engineering. Despite the difficulty of transitioning from engineering to nursing, it's my dream course, and I'm determined to pursue it if I don't pass the exam. What steps should I take next to ensure a smooth transition if needed?

Do you have exams right after returning from the Christmas-new year holidays (23rd Dec to 3rd Jan)? Or just at the end of the block? Thanks!

I passed the PMP and scored T/T/AT.
So here was my testing experience:
I took my exam at a testing center so I wouldn’t have to worry about any interruptions from my neighbors 😂. The testing center was so quiet, you can literally hear someone’s thought lol. I flagged questions I was unsure about, but I made sure to answer them just in case. I also reviewed each question before closing the section. I had extra time to review because I was so nervous that I was going to run out of time. Even though I was exhausted at the final stretch, I made sure to review each answer because once you submit, there’s so going back.
The resources I used:
PMP Prep Course (35 PDU) - Andrew Ramdayal; I took the CAPM years ago so I didn’t need to take a course, but it was great refresher.
PMP application - Alvin the PMP; he provided a great template to use for the application. He also has a prep course if you’re interested but there are other resources as well.
PMP Test Prep - Andrew Ramdayal’s Prep Course AND his PMP Exam Prep Simplified; this actually helped me to understand the materials. The videos just scratched the surface. I am a reader so reading helped me cement the information.
David McLachan’s YT Videos; this helped me confirmed what I had read in AR’s prep book. Actually listening to how he would tackle questions helped me to understand my weak spots and learn more interactively because I became discouraged and low key bored lol.
And, though it was a pain, PMI Study Hall (plus) was the most annoyingly effective tool. It was difficult at first but like many others had suggested, I kept on going and felt more confident over time. I completed 4/5 mock exams scoring around 70-76 but I read that you can score lower and still pass.
Now if you made it to the end of this, thanks because this is a long post lol! But, my main takeaways were:

• create a realistic study plan based on your circumstance. I work two jobs and didn’t want to put this back burner which would have happened if I took this exam in August for example.
  
• don’t be enticed to pay for more than 2-3 test prep services; it’s not worth it. Only invest in tools that are within your budget and actually provide value. YouTube is free and AR’s book was $50 which was worth it. SH was $79 which was all worth it imo.
  
• if you are really fearful of taking the PMP, consider the CAPM. I did this three years ago. I didn’t have enough experience and felt overwhelmed by the PMP process. The entry barrier was lower and I studied and passed AT.
  

Okay, comment if you ever need encouragement or any tips. This channel has been so helpful as others have been sharing their stories 🤍!

Hey has anyone taken the COMM 243 final exam recently? I’m wondering what kind of questions it is- like is it short answe essay questions? How many? It doesn’t say in my course info it just says 3 hour invigulated exam. Also any tips on what I should focus my studying on :) thanks!

I am weak on MEE and MPT. A lot of people advised me to go through past question answers from NCBE. Few of them has explanations and analysis and few of them previous bar exam candidates best answers. Not sure how to use them. What are the methods the one who passed this exam applied while using NCBE?

So, I am an Erasmus student from Bosnia and Herzegovina here in Budapest and my 90 days of visa-free stay in Schengen are over (Bilateral agreement/visa-waver), my Erasmus ends on July 5th (That is also the period that I applied for my permit). I am still waiting for the decision and I have Temporary RP card. My exams are soon finished, as well as my conract and the period I appplied for. My question is can I go back home after all of my academic ond contractal obligations are fulfilled.?
I have all of the documents stating my reasons to stay from Elte university, Erasmus and my contract+ payment certificates that I have paid all of my rents in time, and ofc the documents from the Immigration office. On the TRP card it does state that I cannot do a round-trip and as I exit Hungary they will take away my card. That doesn't concern me since I have obligations at my University in B&H and I have no reason to return back to EU in next 90 days.
P.S. On the website of the General Immigration Directorate it states that the waiting period for Permit is maximum of 70 days, can I call upok that rule?

I am right now in cma inter and I want prepare mcqs for my exam as they hold 30 marks from where I can practice them. And as 1 q hold 2 marks I am assuming that institute will include practical questions so from where I should study them as module doesn't provide any practical questions please help if u have any insight

Looking for some insight from people who may have had similar experiences.
I(F) have been with my partner(M)for 3 years. There have been no lapses in our relationship where we took breaks and could have had intercourse with other partners. I went to the gyno last week to have my annual exam, and was tested for STIs/STDs for the first time. Yesterday, I got results back that I am positive for Chlamydia.
I am very puzzled, as my partner expressed when we first got together that he was a virgin, which would mean hypothetically I am the only person he has had sex with. This would mean that I have had Chlamydia for nearly four years if I would have contracted it from the most recent person I had intercourse with before my current partner and I got in our relationship.
While on the phone with my gyno, I asked if you can be asymptomatic for this long of a stretch of time, and she said there is ABSOLUTELY no way I have had it for nearly four years. She said I DEFINITELY contracted it from my current partner. This is obviously very upsetting to me, because this would mean my partner has cheated on me.
My question for people who may have dealt with similar experience, how did you navigate this situation? Is my gyno correct that there’s no way I’ve had it this long?
Thanks in advance

I lost my mom about a year ago.
Being the eldest, culturally I tried rounding up the rest of the family, checking on everyone every now and then. My Dad (60M) was distant for a couple of months, which I thought of his way of taking it slow and processing his grief.. until I found out that he got himself a girlfriend (28F) barely 3 months after my mom's passing. Now I've learned about this without his knowing. I waited patiently for him to open this up to us, his children, but apparently he has no plans of doing so. So I confronted him, and it was not pretty.
I was enraged with his measures of trying to fix himself by deciding to remarry, with a woman he barely knows, who is younger than my younger brother. And turns out, as she claims, she was pregnant, and he's been sending her money since then. At that time my Dad took a long vacation with me, which is for another post.
I went with my gut and hired an investigator to check this woman out, and turns out she's not pregnant. To my shock and annoyance, I started asking more questions, until they started arguing as to why my dad's adult children are meddling with their relationship. We asked for checkup schedules, doctor's names, anything to prove of her claim. She didn't show us any, said that we don't have the right to see it. And not long after, she said that she miscarried. Our investigator pointed out that this was a convenient way for her to escape our inquiries, guilt trip my dad and to seek empathy.
Now my dad got messed up hearing the news, but I just wanted to know which hospital she was brought (she claims she was home and was brought in through ER). I called up my friend nurses in the area and weirdly enough she can't be found anywhere. What's worse, he made up his mind that it's our fault as to why the miscarriage happened (even if the pregnancy was not proven to begin with).
Through all this mess, I started to grow cold towards my father. I understand that grief makes you disoriented, unable to come up with good decisions, but adding this shady relationship in the picture really did it. I ended up not giving him a proper send off after his visit.
He also kept seeing her and he asked us to just 'forgive and forget' during the Christmas/New Year's season. Not only did he kept seeing her, he believed her story/claim more than us and the investigation. I guess that was my last straw.
I was mentally and emotionally exhausted from the back and forth of him convincing us to let go of our 'doubts' and to just let him be. It was making me sick to my stomach especially with the thought of him not even waiting an honest year for my mother's sake, before making his way to another woman. I was portrayed as a disrespectful daughter, but I'd rather be truthful and honest about my feelings. Plus, culturally, you were not supposed to answer back to your parent because, well, they are the parent. But I've lived in the U.S. long enough to know that this situation doesn't count.
For the mean time he said he's not gonna remarry, but with him not being honest since this started, it's hard to believe what he says anymore.
It's very sad because I know he's not a bad person, but I'm really getting tired of this while I'm trying to grieve and raise my own family as well.
Currently VLC but not sure how to go from here. Thoughts?
