ATI
Retesting Information:
Prior to retesting, you need to fully
review the content for the ATI Content Mastery
Exam that you are repeating. Test scores do not
usually improve without
going into the test and printing the “Topics to Review” and
using the ATI materials, your textbook and notes
to restudy the content. Once you have completed
this detailed review,
retest on the nonproctored exams and score greater
than 90%. If you know you had trouble with one
unit of the course
and scored low on it in the class, add that material
to your review. I have stated several times that
retesting without studying is like spitting in
the wind. It just hits
you in the face and does not improve your knowledge
level.
Retesting for ATI is on August 21 at 9:00
a.m.
Thank you, Dr. Kay Williams-Prickett
