Scheduling My First Exam

Nursing Students Online Learning

Published

Okay, I was all excited about scheduling NC1. And I wanted to schedule it for Friday ,but no appts are avail. None are avail until the 16th, unless I schedule for tomorrow at 1pm. I have no problem b/c it is do or die for this exam anyway.

But, (I love life), my son doesn't go to daycare, my dh is off but has to return a rental car from his trip (I don't know what time), my mom just started working again (she has nothing better to do), my brother is leaving town, my other brother is working, my dad has a doc appt, my sister is also working, dh's mom, just had surgery on her foot, and he has no of age siblings.

Is this some bs or what? I would just schedule for tomorrow now, an then try to work it out, but it is too close to the 24 rescheduling deadline.

This is really messing with my motivation (I wanted to take NC 2 next week).

Anyone want to watch a 2 year old (3 in a month), that is a little bully, very sneaky, and knows how to maneuver it so that he can drive a car without anyone's assistance while talking on a cell phone, for a couple of hours tomorrow ?

LOL!! Sounds like too much going on. I would go ahead and schedule it for the 16th, and then check Pearson Vue every day for an opening -- people cancel/reschedule all the time, so time slots constantly open up. Good luck!! :)

your son sounds like fun! count me in! ;)

hey, could you schedule your appt at a different center? i had to do that once, just like you, couldn't find a date that fitted me, so...had to drive to memphis...NOT FUN! i was too worried i wasn't going to make it, so i didn't stress about the exam at all..LOL

Yes, do what the others suggested, go ahead and schedule for the 16th and then check every day at more than one center and you may be able to get a date that is sooner. Good luck.

I have a 6 year old son who could give him a run for his money. We'll take him...how far are you from DC? lol!

Thanks ya'll. I guess I will just have to schedule for the 16th and check back. The only other center that I "could" drive to is in Baton Rouge, which is about 80 miles away, but their schedule looks worse than the one down here.

LOL, we're in New Orleans, but one day with my terror, you'd be paying me to take him back, I promise.

wow...i just moved to WV from Mississippi...guess i won't make it back there any time soon...LOL

btw, i loved New Orleans. The french Quarter reminded me of home (Europe) soooo much! babysitting your little terror might be the perfect excuse for me to go back there for a visit!
