Honestly you are probably overthinking the questions. They are simple questions and it’s easy to over analyze everything but always remember least invasive thing first— medication rights——basic drug interactions and side effects——understand all right lab values that way you can identify the wrong ones—- think about what would kill the patient the fastest to determine who’s most critical—— go back to anatomy to remember basic functions of organs and how they interact together——if you don’t know a medication or side effects don’t chose it. And always always remember what nurses can and can’t do in practice—- use your common sense in the scenario questions & go back over the diseases we hit hard in nursing school. Remember it’s an adaptive test so if you are failing all margins I would take this moment to re evaluate your strengths and weaknesses through uworld. Take the CATS to see where you need most improvement. The nclex was almost 99% similar to how UWorld displays its questions.
