I wish these types of videos offered advice that could be applied like hey ATI exams are nothing like class exams. ATI asks questions in puzzle form and require the test taker to use ATIs tips like urgent vs non urgent, maslow's hierarchy of needs, evidence based practice, therapeutic responses, and ABCs. ATIexams have little to do with nursing school, but learning how to take exams...
R Gonzo, you are so right about these test bank questions. They can feel like just another thing you have to figure out how to do in nursing school. You CAN do this, don't give up, friend! Have a fantastic day! :)
Wow, thank you for this video. This makes so much sense now why our cohort is not doing well. We DONT have access to ATI yet nor ATI modules, yet we are given exams with ATI material that does not correlate with our lecture textbook assigned….so irritating. Imagine taking fundamentals and no matter how much you know the textbook material, it doesn’t matter because ATI resources are different…
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, Jake! Sorry to hear about your experience in your program! Remember, you can do this! You will do GREAT and we are here for you! Thank you for being here, your support means the world to us. 😊
My husband spread out all the practice tests. Spent 2 months going through them, understanding the rationales...before taking the ATI exam, he was scoring 98% or higher on each of the practice tests. He took the ATI exam and was SO DISHEARTENED because he scored a 75% and said the practice tests only helped him with 4 questions on the actual exam. Any advice for him?
Nico James, so sorry that was his experience. Keep doing practice tests and rationale, like he had been doing. Sometimes with these test bank exams you just get unlucky with the questions you are given, but usually by studying for your courses, incorporating practice questions, and reviewing rationale it helps SO MUCH! Tell your husband not to give up! He CAN do this!!! It also might be helpful to check in with his instructors as well, see if they have any input too! :)
haha.. I am starting to study for my exam day before the exam.. like you said my program has lecture exam and ati exam. SO far I bombed 1st exam in lecture exam but so far other than I am doing better. Going over the quiz bank on ati hoping it can help me to study for rest of tonight to do decent tomorrow. I will take your advices on the next ati exam which is next week.
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, RN Scrub! 😊 We LOVE hearing how our resources helped you feel more confident in your knowledge! Hope you have a fantastic day, RN Scrub. 😀
Hello , my question to you is in regards to Ati testing , when given your exams were you ONLY given test questions related to the course you were enrolled in? Example: if you were currently enrolled in a fundamentals class did they only give you test questions related to that subject or did you also see med surg 2, peds questions on your fundamentals exam? Again this is just example
Tolu Ogundele, great question! Typically it is only on the subject that you are learning about, some programs will have a comprehensive exit exam which will cover topics from all the courses. So if it is your course ATI and not the exit one it will be focused on that subject.
Yes, everyone learns differently, so if you find someone or something that works for you, absolutely go for it!! She is great! Thanks for being here, Brittany A!
As far as preparing to take the TEAS we recommend Kate, from Prenursing Smarter: www.prenursingsmarter.com/ She is awesome and her resources are excellent! Hope this helps! You are going to do grat, Sonia Unstoppable!! Have a fantastic day!
I am taking mental health and OB for the next 8 weeks and at the end of those 8 weeks we take the ATI exit exams for each class on the same day. How should I prepare for them if I still have to study for the lecture exams, clinical rotations, and assignmets. Help!! Thank you!
I just took my first quiz on ATI, i read the chapters, and made flash cards (quizlet) but i still just got a 72. I don't think these questions are simple reading comprehension. what is the name of the style of questions? It felt like all the answers were possible, but only 1 of them was the MOST possible. what am i doing wrong?
Bridget, You CAN do this, these are NCLEX style questions, they focus on critical thinking and not just memorizing the information, but being able to APPLY it to a scenario. We just did an AMA on critical thinking and how to focus your studying so that you are constantly learning with this in mind. It will help SO MUCH, you will go into your exams feeling super confident and prepared! ruclips.net/video/k3zOwzrL2Zk/видео.html Hope this helps! You've got this! :)
NursingSOS are you going to start formally teaching because you’re way better than the ones from you 1976! Lol! How are you more responsive than my own teacher. I literally begged her today to review the quiz and she’s having ya wait until Tuesday. I’ll have forgotten all the questions by then. Bottom line....you are the best!
I'm failing the tests the quizzes we practice online have nothing to do with the proctor exam. We never were told ATI had online ebooks for the classes or practice quizzes that weren't party of the practice exam. They tell you to remediate exam but the info has nothing to do with the proctored exam. There's also info that we haven't heard of or learned anything about on the proctor test. It makes it impossible to pass. I'm not a fan of ATI tests
I have ATI mental health tomorrow, I’m in my last term and we have five proctors plus our midterms and finals and quizzes. I’ve never felt so much pressure on me to get through this. I’ve never failed an ATI in the previous terms and just thinking I could fail one just adds the stress
@@NursingSOS I wanted to update you on my results from the ati mental health proctor today, I PASSED IT!!!! 😊 thank you for the guidance and help you have personally given me during nursing school. I’m down to my last seven weeks, I’m so scared and excited
Great question, Sato Thompson! focus on learning the medications by pharmacological classification, and learning the mechanism of action for them. This will help you fully understand what the medication does so that you can critically think your way through nursing exam questions, or ATI ones! You will do awesome! Thank you for being here. Have a fantastic day 😊
@@NursingSOS on ati did you use the book for medications or website. also how did u choose which meds to learn for each disease m.s. has like 8 meds parkinsons 5 and osteoarthritis 5 all 3 needed to know in one week in nursing program
ATI is usually what you take in nursing school, that or HESI. TEAS is usually what you take before nursing school, Winni Petema! As far as preparing to take the TEAS we recommend Kate, from Prenursing Smarter: www.prenursingsmarter.com/ She is awesome and her resources are excellent! Hope this helps!! You're going to do amazing, friend.
I am having trouble with "focus review" after I take a practice ATI exam. It shows what to read but it takes me to a chapter of the book & then it just continues to show more chapters. How do I know when to stop that point of the focus review and go to the next one?
Great question, Miranda Flemming! There isn't a magic number of chapters, but each chapter will dive further into the topic so that you can critically think about it. So you may only need to read one of, or part of a chapter, or you may get through that chapter and not fully understand the concept to be able to critically think about it. It will vary, but focus on making sure you are able to critically think and apply the topics instead of just trying to memorize them. You CAN do this! Thank you for your support, it means the world to us. 😊

Do you recommend using the cathy parks cards to study as well? I will be taking the med surg one next quarter & I feel lost on all of this!
Yes, everyone learns differently, so if you find someone or something that works for you, absolutely go for it!! She is great! Thanks for being here, Brittany A!
Thanks 🙏 for taking the time and making this video. It surely does help.
YAY!! I'm so happy you loved it!! :) Good luck on all your exams! :)

Nayeli K Ferrer, set a schedule, start early, and use all the ATI resources your program provides! You CAN do this!
I just took my first quiz on ATI, i read the chapters, and made flash cards (quizlet) but i still just got a 72.

We LOVE hearing this from students, Bridget!! 😁😁 So happy to hear that we were able to help you better understand it! You are going to do FANTASTIC!
Agreed!!
What is the ATI examen?I’m starting Nursing school in This August coming up.
ATI is basically a test bank and curriculum that some nursing schools use. If your school doesn't use it you don't need to worry about it 🙂
I'm failing the tests the quizzes we practice online have nothing to do with the proctor exam. We never were told ATI had online ebooks for the classes or practice quizzes that weren't party of the practice exam.

You CAN do this, Alexis Ramos!! 😁😁 Don't let the fear of failure get to you, you are SO CAPABLE!!! You are going to do FANTASTIC!
