    Conqueror+ replied to txspadequeenRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    As I prepare to take NC 5 for the THIRD time (the only test i have left) I commend you for your B. It is really hard to tell sometimes with EC exams because the grading formula is a "secret". Kudos...

  9. CPNE Application

    Conqueror+ replied to aegirl's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Conqueror+ replied to Lovely_RN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Conqueror+ replied to occupiedgirl's topic in Online Distance Learning

  13. Passing Grade for Excelsior NC???

    Conqueror+ replied to insomniacgamer's topic in Online Distance Learning

    You need a C to pass but they use some weird drawn out "secret" formula to grade the test as you take it. The best part is that you get your grade right away. No

    Conqueror+ replied to rjf59's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Conqueror+ replied to katorules's topic in Travel

  21. Hospital cancelled my contract!?!

    Conqueror+ replied to mrupp3's topic in Travel

    This is why more travelers are getting their own housing. If you've never lost your home and job the same day you don't want to. That's why we're going back on the road in an RV. Cuts all that

  24. refuse to float ?

    Conqueror+ replied to nursejllrn's topic in Travel

    I would never go to an unknown city, an unknown hospital and then turn around and work in an unknown specialty no matter what. It sounds much like a recipe for trouble and if you think the facility...

    I agree 100% I have seen clauses in my travel contracts that FORBID me from doing the very things that the other poster suggested. I wish you would keep a log of the facilities shortcomings and then...
