1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,760
Candidate performance report or 
your CPR report. 

2
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:09,840
If you've gotten to the point 
where you've taken the exam and 

3
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:13,720
unfortunately did not pass, or 
you've taken it multiple times, 

4
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:19,280
you receive one of these via 
e-mail and or via mail and you 

5
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:24,800
look at it and you're kind of 
like, OK, what does ACPR report 

6
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,440
really mean? 
What does my candidate 

7
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:31,920
performance report really mean? 
Well, as the next Gen. came out,

8
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:38,360
the CPR report has actually 
added in a little bit more 

9
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,520
specificity. 
It used to be 9 categories, now 

10
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,920
it's up to 15 categories. 
There's only three different 

11
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:49,720
levels that they give you. 
Either you're below you're near 

12
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:53,720
passing or you're above passing.
What does that mean? 

13
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,320
What do these subjects mean? 
How do I interpret it? 

14
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,520
What do I do moving forward? 
So as you look through it, 

15
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,920
you'll get these 3 pages. 
The 1st 2 pages are basically 

16
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,240
kind of an explanation of who 
you are and what you can get 

17
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,440
where. 
You can get other resources if 

18
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,560
you kind of want to look at it. 
But even if you look at these 

19
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:16,520
resources, they still don't give
you a little bit of insight or 

20
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:21,480
detailed insight that you need 
in order to pass this exam the 

21
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:26,200
next time you take it. 
So how do I interpret it? 

22
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,160
Well, let's take a look at this 
example. 

23
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:32,960
One, if we look at this, we've 
got the different domains on the

24
00:01:32,960 --> 00:01:35,560
side, management of care, 
safety, health, promotion, 

25
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,280
psychosocial, so on and so 
forth. 

26
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:43,480
As you read through each one of 
these and the description, you 

27
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,840
kind of look at them, you're 
like, what does that really 

28
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,360
mean? 
Like, am I bad at cardio? 

29
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,760
Am I bad at maternity? 
Am I bad at farm? 

30
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,920
Am I bad at fundamentals? 
It doesn't really give you that 

31
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,360
because a lot of these things 
like basic care and comfort, OK,

32
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,000
that's its own subject. 
But how about like provides and 

33
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:08,360
directs nursing care of the 
client that incorporates 

34
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,920
knowledge of expected growth and
development principles. 

35
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:14,200
OK, What does that really mean? 
OK, growth and development, I 

36
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,360
get that. 
But again, it's still a little 

37
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:17,080
vague. 
Like what? 

38
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,760
What do you really tell me? 
Growth and development, What 

39
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,880
growth development or in general
or what about everything that 

40
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,200
I've studied so far, whatever 
program you've used, whatever Q 

41
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,280
Bank you've used, how does this 
relate to your CPR? 

42
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:37,160
What I look at is the fact that 
the Nclex are actually on a 

43
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:41,080
curve. 
Well, if you're doing above 

44
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,000
passing, well, you're above the 
curve, right? 

45
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,280
So just kind of think about the 
curve if you're above, well, 

46
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,360
you're doing better than the 
average. 

47
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,000
If you're near passing, you 
could be kind of right there, 

48
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,120
but not necessarily at the 
average. 

49
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:04,120
And if you're below, well, we're
definitely weaker in a lot of 

50
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,240
different areas. 
When I interpret these for my 

51
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:12,200
students, when I look at them, I
look at the fact that there are 

52
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:19,080
15 different domains and the 
performance level in general, if

53
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:23,040
you look at it in this 
situation, we'll go one by one. 

54
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:34,720
We've got near passing 123 and 
that's it. 

55
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,800
There's only three near passing,
so let's take that into 

56
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:44,680
consideration for this student. 
Three near passing. 

57
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:56,600
Then I look at my above passing.
So we've got one 2, looks like 

58
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:02,240
323. 
So now we've got three above 

59
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,080
passing. 
OK, so I'll keep that into 

60
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:15,840
consideration. 
Three above passing, which means

61
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,959
just by default, doing the math,
I already know how many below 

62
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:21,000
they got. 
There's only fifteen of these 

63
00:04:21,079 --> 00:04:27,040
domains, so the remainder of 
them are going to be 9 below. 

64
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,600
Passing. 
In this situation, if I was 

65
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,400
talking to my student I'm 
looking at, I'm saying, wait a 

66
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:37,920
minute, well, we've only got 3 
that were above that curve, 

67
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:45,120
which means that if majority of 
people are right at this median,

68
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:52,520
then only three or three domains
were you above them. 

69
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,400
I tell my students all the time,
when you're looking at a 

70
00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:00,280
question, if 40% of people got 
them right, you should be doing 

71
00:05:00,280 --> 00:05:04,840
higher than that 50%, definitely
higher than that. 

72
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,680
If they're scoring 60 or 70, the
majority of people, you better 

73
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,800
get those right. 
So that's going to set you apart

74
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,240
and make you pass. 
So somebody like this, I would 

75
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,520
probably anticipate was probably
85 and out. 

76
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,480
Well, not in a good way, but 
there were 85, which means that 

77
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:30,720
the adaptive test was noticing 
that guess what, in nine of 

78
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,600
these domains I'm below passing 
standard. 

79
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:35,640
What does that mean? 
What should I do? 

80
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,280
Because I don't know how to 
study based off of this, like 

81
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,240
how many people show you. 
OK, well, let's go through each 

82
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,080
one of these. 
No, the way that I teach my 

83
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,040
students is what, system by 
system and breaking down 

84
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,120
questions, test taking 
strategies, system by system, 

85
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,680
which is all-encompassing. 
It's going to include all of 

86
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,160
these domains. 
So as I'm teaching you cardio, 

87
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,000
as I'm teaching you infectious 
disease, as I'm teaching 

88
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,440
maternity, as I'm teaching 
growth and development 

89
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,840
fundamentals, endocrine, all of 
these topics are all in there. 

90
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,200
So there's no reason to sit 
there and say let me just do 

91
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,200
analysis of cues. 
I don't see that. 

92
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,520
Oh, I don't understand how this 
is more understanding testing 

93
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:22,400
strategies, looking at your case
studies now, looking at what you

94
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,200
can grasp those clues. 
Like when I break down questions

95
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,680
and as you watch me do break, or
as you watch me breakdown 

96
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,400
questions on these other videos 
that I have, watch those 

97
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,360
analysis of cues, watch all that
testing strategies. 

98
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,280
That hypothesis, what am I doing
with the hypothesis? 

99
00:06:40,280 --> 00:06:44,840
How about prioritization? 
Yeah, how about differential 

100
00:06:44,840 --> 00:06:45,840
diagnosis? 
Things like that. 

101
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,560
They're all-encompassing, and if
you learn your content 

102
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,040
completely, you learn your 
testing strategies completely. 

103
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:56,000
In this student, for instance, I
would say we need to work on 

104
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,120
everything. 
If only three were near and only

105
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,640
three were above, the good 
majority of people are probably 

106
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:08,520
getting more near and above than
they are compared to the 

107
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,760
student. 
Now with your CPR report, hey, 

108
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,160
obviously everything is 
different. 

109
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,880
I can't say, oh, if you've got 
this many above, this many near 

110
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:22,080
this many below that, this is 
what you should do, because 

111
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,240
every single student is 
individual. 

112
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:29,200
That's why I say fill out the 
form and we'll go over it. 

113
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,480
We'll make a game plan. 
Let's figure out what you need 

114
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:37,120
to do to pass your exam, and if 
you've taken it multiple times, 

115
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,240
fine. 
I want your most recent CPR 

116
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,920
report because the most recent 
one's going to tell me where you

117
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,880
stand at this moment. 
But there's so many variables 

118
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,480
involved. 
What queue, bank use? 

119
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,120
Did you finish it? 
What program you used? 

120
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:54,360
How did you like it? 
What supplemental programs did 

121
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,320
you use or what supplemental 
textbooks and things of that 

122
00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,920
nature did you use? 
How is your schooling? 

123
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,080
How's your anxiety levels? 
There's so many. 

124
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:04,400
How long have you been out of 
school? 

125
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,120
How many attempts have you had? 
All these different things are 

126
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,880
variables that I take into 
account on top of your CPR 

127
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,600
report that gives me the full 
picture. 

128
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,200
And if I don't have a full 
picture, I can't just 

129
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:19,120
generically say, well, this is 
what you should be doing. 

130
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,240
If this is what your CPR report 
says, that's like a student 

131
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,720
asking me, well, Doctor Z, if I 
take your program, can I pass in

132
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,120
four weeks? 
You could, but there's a lot of 

133
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,559
different variables involved. 
Some people pass in four weeks, 

134
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,520
some people need six months 
because they do different 

135
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:40,039
variables. 
So with the CPR report, again, 

136
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,919
it is very subjective to each 
individual student, which is why

137
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:49,120
I'm offering the ability to talk
to me or my team regarding your 

138
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,000
CPR report, because I do want to
ask other questions. 

139
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,280
I want to get a full idea of 
what's going on. 

140
00:08:55,680 --> 00:09:00,440
So when you get this, keep it, 
don't lose it, Save it with you.

141
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,280
And if you do want to talk to 
myself or my team who are all 

142
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:07,120
being trained in this exact 
situation as well to to consider

143
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,800
the variables, to look at your 
CPR report, so on and so forth. 

144
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,160
We would love, love, love to 
help our community out, to help 

145
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,120
our students out and our future 
nurses out. 

146
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:19,120
So please feel free to fill out 
that information and we will 

147
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,920
contact you and or we'll 
schedule you soon as possible. 

148
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:24,760
So I hope you guys enjoy. 
Take care.
