a very complicated problem regarding Continuing Education...

I passed the NCLEX for Northern Marianas almost a year ago and now it's about time to renew my license. I received my renewal letter April 23, 2009 and the letter said that the CEUs that will be accounted for should be taken before April 30, 2009. I managed to finish my 30units within 3 days (So, I finished around April 26). I took my CE at www.medscape.com... Unfortunately, my medscape account was set for medical students since I'm also currently a first year medical student. I hadn't realized that I had been taking the wrong units until I got to the 28th unit. I made the proper corrections and so now I have 28 units of AMA (for doctors CE) units and only 2 units of ANCC (Nurse's CEU). I wrote an email to medscape staff if it was possible to have my credits converted to the nursing type. I sent it on April 26 and that they said they would reply within 2 business days (April 28). I have also been busy lately studying... It is now May 3 and they still haven't replied. I tried reading all the fine print in the website and as it turns out the credits are not "exchangeable..." I know that most of this has been my fault for being so careless.

So, I now have 2 choices: Should I just have my license inactivated or pay $300 for my carelessness (which I dont have)? I may be in med school but I do have plans on working as a nurse after I graduate from medicine. i would gladly appreciate the advice.
