All you can do right now is wait and PRAY.
I got my result after 21 days. Waiting was the worst part of it. The first 2 weeks was fine but after that... terrible feeling. The mailman was my best friend. But once you pass, it's all worth it.
i am just curious regards to the starting rate of pay for newly LPN grads upon hire in all and many different states here in the US. I am currently in mcallen, tx. but i plan to move around to different states to see where i like to work best so I would like to know the different rates of pay for different states.
Starting rate here (LTC) in the Silicon Valley, CA is $25-$28. I just got hired for $28/hr but the job is terrible. Aside from med passing to 35 patients, you'll do the treatment, admissions and discharge.
