WELCOME TO THIS GREAT EDUCATIONAL BLOG

Welcome to my Pre-Nursing Exam Prep blog. I hope it will help you prepare very well for the Pre-NLN entrance exam, popularly known as the PAX exam. This is one of the entrance exams required by some schools for those who want to pursue careers in the nursing field in the USA. I will attempt to break down the review materials into manageable parts so that you can systematically and efficiently prepare for the test with less stress. I will guide you to prepare for the entire content of the test. Hopefully, you will be able to pass after going through these series.


BEST OF LUCK!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL MY USA FANS!

For all my readers from USA, I want to wish you all
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

As you eat your turkey, meticulously identify the epithelial tissues, the connective tissues, the muscle tissues, etc. Dissect the turkey with care!

Let your mind wonder about how its proteins were made. PROTEIN SYNTHESIS!

Remember the blood cells are formed in the bone marrow so savor the juicy marrow to derive some iron. IRON is needed for the formation of the hemoglobin in the red blood cells.

Explore the cartilage at the end of the bones and enjoy the sight of its glassy appearance!
