So I've basically spent my day irritable and emotional. NOT GOOD for a work day. Once I got home from a hectic 12 hour shift, I CRIED MY EYES OUT. why? Because I took my exam on Tuesday and felt nothing but relief, confusion, frustration, and any other emotion you can think of. Believe me, this was definitely not my first time taking it, but it sure as hell felt like it was my first time all over again!!! The first time i took it, I took the whole exam. This time I ended at 98 in about 4 hours. Once i SAW THE BLUE SCREEN, I felt relieved. Relieved because it was over...but then sat there and thought about it then asked myself, "WAIT! SHOULD I BE HAPPY THAT IT'S OVER?!" haha. I HAD A HELL OF A LOT OF SATA'S, PRIORITY/DELEGATION, a FEW pharm questions (BUT NO MED CALCULATIONS..JUST PHARM), 1 EXHIBIT Question, 2 Graphic/hot spots and 2 drag and drops and some infection precautions. I swear SATA's were coming left and right..I wanted to poke my eyes out every time I saw a Select all that apply question. haha. Anyway!i tried the pearsonvue trick and I GOT A GOOD POP UP... but i'm not getting excited JUST YET.. My poor boss and co-workers have to deal with my crazy butt at work five days a week for the next week! or until I find out. SOMEONE GIVE ME SOME GOOD WORDS OF ADVICE TO CALM DOWN!! OR DID ANY OF YOU HAVE ALMOST THE SAME CRAZINESS AS I DID? hahaha

LOL!!! I felt the same string of emotions as you did! I took the exam for the second time yesterday. When the computer shut off at 75 questions, I wasn't relieved, I was scared! I wanted it to give me more questions, because I felt like I didn't prove my compentency with just the 75.
I honestly thought I got several of the questions wrong. I had about 6 SATA, a TON of priorty questions, 1 math, 2 drag & drop & about 7 or 8 med questions.
I checked the PVT trick and I got the good pop up, so that's what's been keeping me sane. But I still want to see my official results :)
Hey huladoll! Yeah, i tried the trick too! and it popped up. ONLY thing that kept me a little more sane. We'll see! GOOD LUCK TO YOU!!...did you take the boards for Cali?
Yeah, I'm in California :)
Oh yeah?? Me too!! Let me know how it goes!! Goodluck!! Fingers crossed for the both of us!
