  1. Pearson Vue Trick Works!!!

    Yes and CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! After my NCLEX last year in June, I did the PV trick and got the good pop-up. I then proceded to check it every hour until the next day. I even checked it yesterday after I read here that they changed the pop-up message....
  2. I have hit a brick wall!

    Bittersweet post in that I had been having second thoughts for telling WGU to forget it! I don't now....reading your post simply re-ignited all the frustrations that I had with them and they had the audacity to call my house today. I didn't even answ...
  3. A friend of mine is agonizing because she keeps scoring lower in the L&D/OB sections in her studies. I try to tell her to relax because this is not a reproductive exam, nor a chronicity exam, etc. This exam covers many topics and test you on your...
  4. Which Exam should I take? CPCT/CCMA?

    Honestly and seriously, it don't believe it really matters. You've answered your own question when you mentioned the diversity of those hired with you in the hospital....the employers did not care because they knew what you would be required to do, c...
  5. Select Specialty Hospital work environment

    I'm sure their facilities vary by location. Which one are you considering? I have experience in only one of their facilities and trust me when I say that you don't want to know my experience.:devil::devil::down::mad::eek:
  6. Took nclex pn

    Oh nooooooo.....I'm sorry...........Ok....pity party is over. Get ready to retest in 45 days......IF, indeed you didn't pass. Wait for the official results....it ain't over til it's over. But no false hopes here. If you're certain you entered all the...
  7. Took nclex pn

    Are you sure you entered all of the information correctly? The correct state? Selected 'yes' when asked if you ever applied for this exam before? One little detail out of the ordinary will throw the whole thing off.
  8. Took nclex pn

    Good luck:yeah::yeah:.......waiting........:yeah::yeah:
  9. Took nclex pn

    You go in to Pearson Vue and try to re-register. Most successful test takers will not be allowed to follow through with the registration...it stops you just before you get to the credit card screen.
  10. OK I gotta vent for a minute about Excelsior exams!

    I remember LS 3.....that was the only exam that I studied for for only 7 days and went in to take the exam. I was so happy because finally I was gonna get my first A outta Excelsior. Instead, I barely made the grade....came outta there with a C. For ...
  11. WGU RN-BSN 10/01/11 start...anyone with me?

    Same here!!! My funding is already there, payment is expected by September 25th, yet I can't get a simple evaluation done, let alone a re-eval.....they won't even tell me what the first one reflected, though I can just imagine seeing as how they didn...
  12. My RN New Grad is losing hope need suggestions

    Hopefully, something will open up very soon. Did she apply to the hospital where she did her clinicals? There, she's a familiar face and might stand a better chance at a position. Sad to say, but a lot of places actually treat you as though you shoul...
  13. WGU RN-BSN 10/01/11 start...anyone with me?

    It's official. My October 1st date is off as well as any other date with WGU. I got a phone call from them just a few minutes ago and....remember the re-eval needed as a result of the first eval that I NEVER got???? Well, guess what!!! She called ask...

  21. Exam q2weeks???

    Thank you, BarbaraNM. It was not that I was trying to impress anyone. I actually went in with the hopes of not taking more than a year to complete the program. Finishing in record time just worked out that way....my job kept cancelling me just like t...

  24. Exam q2weeks???

    Yep...did the nursing exams in 2 1/2 months. Did A&P weeks later and then Micro 30 days later. The wait time began with getting a date for the CPNE (02/12/2010) and then another 2 months' wait to receive my diploma in the mail (04/16/2010). So fr...
  25. Community College? You must be stupid.

    WOW! I wonder if this same argument is going on with doctors? Surgeons vs Family Practitioners; Neuro surgeons vs Orthopedic Surgeons, Cardiac Surgeons vs General Surgeons,etc.... I wonder if they ALL look down on nurses, even the Nurse Practitioners...
