Only a nursing student would do this!!

So yesterday I was heading off to take NC6, stuck in stop and go Boston traffic when a large dump truck full of rocks plowed into the back of my Toyota. First call that I made was to Pearson vue to make sure that it was ok to be a few minutes late. They said they could only give me 15 extra minutes or I would have to reschedule and have to repay the $235.00 fee.

Second call was to the Massachusetts state police. Then I got out of car, picked up my license plate from the highway, exchange info with dump truck guy, told him I was in a hurry and he should wait for cops, took picture with my cellphone, got into breakdown lane and drove like hell to pearsonvue in a totally erratic illegal way. Got a few fingers pointed at me but I made it to the test center with 2.5 minutes to spare. Got a B on Nc6.:smokin: When I finished the test, I limped back to my crumpled up new car that is not yet paid for and cried, took 2 advil and headed home to study for NC7. Who would do something like this? NURSING STUDENTS!!!:chuckle:up:

Congrats on passing! WOW talk about good luck to have still made it to your test!

Congrats also on Passing NC7. I couldn't stand that. It was too dry. It was my first test to take because I had seen many people talk about it being boring and dry. OUT OF THE WAY! YAY! Like you, I don't care to see all of that material again. Put it off for months. Are you CPNE bound? Traci
