   teaquay replied to starletRN's topic in Virginia

   Did you get to see what kind of care the patients got? Is it more typical of a med-surg floor, or are there big differences? What was your typical workday like?

   Please tell me more! I am considering working there and would super appreciate some first-hand insight. Do you know anything about any of the other floors? What about it makes it horrible - is it the nurses, the doctors, the managers? Where are m...

   teaquay replied to CrystalClear75's topic in NCLEX

   I just took my nclex-rn on Saturday, and believe me, I was in the same exact shoes - not many "higher level" questions, a lot of "recall" - so when it shut off at 75, I knew in my heart that I had failed. I even had to wait THREE DAYS to get my resu...

    Hey p_one -- how long after taking your test did you try going to the Pearson payment page? I just tried the trick and it won't let me pay; HOWEVER, the BON just told me over the phone that they do not have my results yet (even though I took my test...
