Calculate with confidence. Care with precision.
Master every clinical calculation — dosages, drip rates, pediatric formulas, and more — using a single error-proof method that works on exams and at the bedside.
"One reliable method, applied consistently, is what stands between a calculation and a medication error — and that's exactly what I teach."— Tracy Burke
What you'll learn
What you'll be able to do

Who it's for
Is this you?
Nursing Students
Build the dimensional analysis foundation that nursing school introduces but rarely has time to fully develop — before exams and clinicals demand it.
NCLEX Candidates
Translate solid clinical knowledge into exam-day accuracy with timed practice, alternate-item question formats, and a personal error-reduction strategy.
New Graduate Nurses
Close the gap between classroom math and bedside reality — from reading actual drug labels to verifying IV drip rates without a preceptor looking over your shoulder.
LPNs & RNs Returning to Practice
Sharpen skills that may have gone rusty and rebuild the systematic confidence that safe medication administration demands.
Pharmacy Techs & Medical Assistants
Master the unit conversions, dosage calculations, and label-reading skills that allied health licensure exams and daily clinical duties both require.
Paramedics & Prehospital Providers
Apply weight-based dosing, IV calculations, and rapid order interpretation to the high-pressure, no-margin-for-error environment of prehospital care.

Tracy Burke
If you've ever stared at a medication order, done the math twice, and still second-guessed yourself before reaching for that syringe — I want you to know that feeling is more common than anyone talks about in nursing school or on the floor. Math anxiety doesn't disappear the moment you pin on a badge. And the stakes don't get lower.
That's exactly why I built Medical Math Mastery the way I did. Not as a formula sheet you memorize before a test and forget by clinical, but as a genuine skill-building program centered on one method — dimensional analysis — that you can apply to any calculation you'll ever face, whether it's on the NCLEX, during a pediatric code, or at 3 a.m. on a busy unit when your calculator feels like your only friend.
Here's what I know about clinical math: the problem isn't usually the arithmetic. It's the setup. It's not knowing how to read what a physician order is actually asking, or how to catch a dose that's quietly, dangerously out of range before it reaches a patient. That's why this course spends as much time on interpreting orders and identifying dosage red flags as it does on the calculations themselves. The math and the clinical judgment belong together.
Every lesson is built around real scenarios — the kind where the drug label looks slightly different from what you expect, or the patient's weight is in pounds and the order is in mg/kg, or the IV tubing you have on hand has a drop factor you need to account for. That's the reality you're preparing for, so that's the reality I teach in.
I also know that for many of you, this course sits right before something high-stakes: NCLEX, a licensure exam, a return to clinical practice, or a new role with new responsibilities. I take that seriously. The exam-prep section isn't a bolt-on — it's a full translation of everything you've learned into the timed, alternate-format, mixed-scenario practice that mirrors what you'll actually face.
You don't need to be a "math person" to master this. You need a reliable method, clear explanations, and enough practice with real clinical scenarios that confidence becomes the natural result. That's what this course is here to give you. I'm glad you're here — let's get to work.
