Assignment 1: Study Plan
Assignment 1: Study Plan
Throughout this assignment I will reflect on my practice exam results by creating a study
plan identifying content-area strengths and opportunities for improvement. In addition, I will
include three specific goals including the tasks I need to complete to accomplish each goal, a
timetable for accomplishing them, and a description of how I will measure my progress. I will
also include resources I would use to accomplish my goals and tasks, such as ways to participate
in study group or review course, mnemonics and other mental strategies, and online resources I
could use to help study. I believe this study plan will help track my goals, tasks, and progress
and ultimately help me prepare for the national certification exam.
Reflecting on my practice exam results, I honestly did not do as good as I expected with
an overall 60% of correct answers. However, I was able to identify content-area strengths as
well as opportunities for improvement. Being a postpartum nurse for the past four years, my
biggest content-area strength is women’s health including OB/GYN and newborn care. After
completing the practice exam, I noticed the majority of the correct answers came from those
areas. In addition, I noticed another content-area strength was the HEENT and respiratory
systems. I was also able to see the trend of where my weaknesses are and the opportunities for
improvement.
For example, I missed quite a few pharmacological questions, questions regarding professional
issues including Medicare and durable power of attorney, and questions on the
gastrointestinal, renal, and hematological systems.
After reviewing the practice exam questions and the areas for improvement, I have
created a study plan that includes three specific goals. My first goal is to correctly answer 85% of
the pharmacological test questions covering all body systems by the end of this class. To
accomplish this goal, I will continuously complete online practice exams covering pharmacology
