Hey!! I am new here. I have my Clinical Compt. test on Wednesday am. Our theory instructor would not tell us what to study for and has all of us scared to death of this test. She informed us ALL that if we do not pass this test that we are out of the program. I think there are 25 questions on the test. It is supposed to beased on patient safety, which I feel I am comfortable with but now I am soooooo scared that I will not pass. I MUST make at least a 80+ on the test or I am finished!!!!! Talk about a high stress level I am at right now. I have talked with some of our 2nd year students and they say not to worry but I can't help it!! Any comforting advice would be appreciated. By the way- I am new here and I look forward to meeting fellow nsg students like myself and hope that maybe I can share some of my many frustrations with you as well....

If it is on patient safety, just review the areas that you covered pretaining to that. We had to do lots of computer programs, and a few delt with patient safety. If you had to do things like that as well. You might go over them againto make sure you feel good about that area. Patient safety to me is probably the most impoprtant area , but is also an area of common sense. Just review your info and I know you will be fine. Good Luck and let us know hopw it goes.
By the way, I'm in my first year as well, so I think we are all gonna have moments like these. Just have to remember why your there. Starting week five and got my fingers crossed LOL

have a great day

Hi there. I'm new here as well. How did your test go? Hope all went well and you are a bit more stress-free (how stress-free can a nursing student be though? lol)
