  12. Pearsonvue Trick Is this TRUE? Does it work every time?

    Well...I was able to pay and yes I failed. So this is my experience however this is not very scientific method to find out and nurses should be scientists. This trick better just be ignored and should...
  13. Stressed/worried/confused

    People seem to get into a huge frenzy after taking the test. My best advice is to completely forget about it. Don't think about or talk to anyone about the test. Let the results come by itself rather...
  14. Question I tried Pearsonvue "Trick".. and paid

    If you made a mistake and Parson's Vue wont give you a refund. You call your credit card company and say they are ripping you off. Don't pay it, you don't have to. Simply explain it to the credit card...
