Re: Rant!
I'm so sorry to hear you failed your test. If it's any consolation, you're not alone in the "careless" mistakes arena. I just had my first NS test, and while I didn't fail it, I did manage to do exactly what you did on one question. I also "corrected" two right answers and made them wrong. Time and time again during my prereqs I told myself not to change my answers. Did I listen to myself? Noooooo.
Just know that this was but a single test, and you are not likely to make those mistakes again. My instructor told me of a student she had once who did that but then all the answers below that one on the scantron were one "off" so that the student actually got about a dozen wrong that she really knew. Now
that would be really sickening, don't you think?
Pick yourself up and move forward. As I tell my students (medical transcription, not nursing) .... Onward and Upward!
