Apologies for not checking the thread in some time, for some reason it stopped emailing me replies. I've got things more or less worked out at this point, I was mostly stressed over my scores because I believed (at the time) that they had a direct correlation to the level of patient care I...

For all those examples I'm assuming that you've learned the correct answer to the questions. My issue isn't getting to the question from the problem, my issue is actually getting the correct answer. Again, the text and the test differ.
