  • 1.  Both books?

    Posted 01-31-2024 01:20 PM

    How is everyone doing with chapter 3? I just finished the chapter and questions in our review book and wondering if anyone is studying from both books concurrently?  I'm wondering if Selekman/Cogan is pretty comprehensive or if the test will cover material only found in the 3rd edition chapters as well? Trying to see where I should focus my study energy for these next 2 days, thanks!

    No one but the test developers know what is on the test and the sign a confidentiality agreement. The Selekman, Shannon, Yonkaitis text is used for test development among other texts.

    Usually I say to download the handbook and read it. It lists the texts that are used in test development so you mught find it helpful.

    I am reading the NBCSN book first each week. I have the digital copy of the School nursing, a comprehensive text 3rd edition. I read it then I do any tests in the books. I make note cards of questions I missed or things I think might help me memorize. I am personally working on refreshing on all the eye conditions (myopia, hyperopia, strabismus, amblyopia, etc) I have quite a stack of notecards going LOL. I figure if I can't memorize all the things I find important, Seeing them frequently may trigger a memory on test day. Hope this helps.
