Preparation for Licensure (ATI Comp Predictor Proctored)

Preparation for Licensure (ATI Comp Predictor Proctored)

For this last ATI proctored exam and remediation, I felt extremely confident after I received the grade that I did. During the exam I thought there was no way I was doing well but I guess I knew more than I thought I did. Obviously, because it was a proctored exam, I took it in a quiet and non-distracting environment where I was able to easily focus on the exam and read through each question slowly. I still noticed during…

Preparation For Licensure and Transition to Professional Practice

In the beginning of the semester, I thought of ATI as just another thing on my list of things to do. I would take the exams whenever and wherever I needed to just to get them done and out of the way. As it went further into the semester, I realized that these exams are what’s going to help me pass the NCLEX and I should take them more seriously. I began to take the exams in a quiet place,…

For this exam, I took it in a quiet, comfortable place where I was able to focus without disruption. I feel that I have developed good test endurance as I was able to take the exam without breaks. I tried my best to really read through each question and figure out what exactly it was asking as that is what went wrong with the practice A of this test. I found after doing remediations that there were a lot of…

Preparation for Licensure (ATI Pediatric CAT)

For this adaptive test, I feel that because I was able to focus and complete the test in a quiet environment and fully read through each question and answer, I did surprisingly well! There were still a few questions that I wish I slowed down and read completely as I missed a few key words that would have helped me get to the answer however compared to my past experience with rushing through an exam, I feel that this one…

Preparation for Licensure (ATI Comp Predictor Practice A)

For this exam, I took it on the third floor of the commons on the Biddeford Campus, so it was a very quiet and non-distracting environment for me to be able to focus solely on the exam. I was very surprised at some of the questions I got incorrect because I was so confident in my answers and my knowledge of the topic that I didn’t think twice about my answer. After completing the remediations for this exam I came…

Preparing For Licensure (ATI Pharm Proctored)

I was nervous going in to take this ATI Pharmacology proctored exam as I know that pharmacology is not my best subject. I was surprised at the grade I received as I improved after taking both ATI pharmacology practice exams and doing the remediations. Obviously because it was a proctored, so the environment was quiet and non-distracting, however even with this I still felt a bit of test anxiety. There were a lot of medications that I did not recognize…

Preparation for Licensure (ATI Pharm Practice B)

After completing the ATI Pharmacology Practice B exam, I noticed how many of the medications that I did not know in the first practice exam (Pharm practice A) that I recognized in pharm practice B due to the remediations that I did for them. I definitely still have some studying to do in order to get a full grasp on some of the medications before I take the NCLEX exam, however I was definitely not as frustrated or let down…

Preparation for Licensure (ATI Pharm Practice A)

After completing the ATI pharmacology Practice A exam, I definitely notice how much studying I have to do in order to feel comfortable with pharmacology for the NCLEX exam. There were a lot of medications that I did not recognize so I would attempt to make it sound like another medication that was in a completely different classification just so I could make an educated guess on the answer to the questions. It was frustrating because I felt that I…

Preparing for Licensure (ATI Maternity CAT)

During this adaptive exam, I feel that I did better on it than I expected. I was forced to take it in a somewhat distracting environment due to time constraints and even though I still had a lot of remediations, I feel that most of them were due to not paying attention or a content deficit. I found that on a few questions some of the things we learned in lecture were slightly different than the answers on ATI which…

Preparing for Licensure (ATI Pharmacology CAT)

Preparing for Licensure (ATI Pharmacology CAT)

After completing the pharmacology adaptive test, I was surprised at how well I did as I typically struggle with pharmacology. When taking the test, I took it while I was at work so I got distracted a few times and occasionally didn’t completely read the question. I noticed that I struggles with questions surrounding patient education, maternity medications and medications effect on lab values. For next time I will definitely find a time without distractions for me to take this…
