    hi everyone, my friend and i took the nclex-pn in pa on friday 1/7. computer shut off for both of us at 85 questions - the minimum. we came home and got the good pop up on the pvt. just now, we were able to pay for the quick results which are unof...
  2. Took the NCLEX-PN yesterday...It was awful!!

    I agree about the good pop up. Hasn't seem to be wrong in any of the zillion posts I read. Two of my classmates and I stopped at 85 and before we knew "officially" that we passed, the DON at our school told us that to fail at 85, you would have to ...

  8. Took the NCLEX-PN yesterday...It was awful!!

    From what I read and saw on Judith Miller's video's....if you are doing well, the questions get harder, if you get questions wrong, they get easier. I'd feel pretty confident about the good pop-up - just my opinion. Good luck!!! I take mine tomorr...

  14. Lvn Vs. Medical Assistant Help please

    hmmmmm, i'm curious as to what this nurse pak is. i have to say - i paid $50 for a litman lite se stethoscope for my phlebotomy class and it definitely keeps background noise to a minimum. i didn't get my paperwork yet but i know we have to have al...
