It is impossible to know everything but that is okay.

🔥 The trick is to learn how to answer any question with what you have.
Use this even for those horrid select all that apply "SATA" questions.

🔥 Top tips that helped me get A's on exams:

1️⃣ Turn each answer option into True/False. If it is false or does not answer the question, cross it out!

2️⃣ If two answers are alike, both are wrong.

3️⃣ If two answers are opposite, chances are one is right.

4️⃣ Always assess patient BEFORE interventions, EXCEPT in emergency situations.

5️⃣ Never ask "Why" instead use "What" in therapeutic communication.

6️⃣ Prioritize Acute over Chronic issues.

7️⃣ Use Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.

8️⃣  For Interventions, use LEAST invasive option first.

9️⃣ Avoid absolute answers that include words like, "Always", "Never", "Only"

🔟 If you have never heard of one of the answers, do not pick it.
