  1. Pearson Vue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 2

    EquuszARNP replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Because after over 500 confirmations and not a single negative, there's no more comfort to be had! I didn't say get rid of the topic, I said call it confirmed and close it! I only passed my NCLEX in...

  2. NCLEX 3500: Study software for NCLEX-RN

    EquuszARNP replied to tgriffin888's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Why are you guys risking yourselves by pirating software? Just click on the dang link I gave you and follow the instructions. It's legal, free and the same material. Sheesh!

  3. Pearson Vue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 2

    EquuszARNP replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Good lord, Silverdragon - why did you continue the thread? Didn't the last thread confirm that this 100% works? People keep coming on and saying the same thing: "I got the good (or bad) popup but I...

  4. Washington State and Excelsior

    EquuszARNP replied to anticoagulationurse's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Yes Vega if you do it this way could you please come back and let us know if it went through OK? Thanks!

  5. Washington State and Excelsior

    EquuszARNP replied to anticoagulationurse's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Thanks for sharing your story. I'm also in Oregon (licensed here in May) and when I called the WA BON about a year ago they DID mention the 1000 hour requirement. But I've just downloaded the...

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

    EquuszARNP replied to brichielpn08's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    OK, after 900 pages this is getting a bit silly. I think it's been established 100% that if you get the popup described wayyyyyy back on page one, after attempting to re-register (after your test...

  7. The retro nurse's outfit has returned

    EquuszARNP replied to cicatrixx15's topic in General Nursing

    I worked as a medic a couple years ago at a hospital in Saudi Arabia. The medics were part of the nursing department, and medics and nurses wore a heavy-duty white scrub that could be pressed (and the...

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

    EquuszARNP replied to brichielpn08's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Worked for me. Took the test 10:30 am on May 10. Shut off at 75 questions so I figured, I'm toast. Did the PVT when I got home 2 hours later, got the popup. Tonight at 1:30 am I got the email from the...

  9. NCLEX 3500: Study software for NCLEX-RN

    EquuszARNP replied to tgriffin888's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Actually all you have to do is go to the ExamMaster website for UTMB (University of Texas Medical Branch - Nursing), click "First Time Registration", pick a username, and it'll mail you your login...

  10. Nurse Practitioner or Physician's Assistant?

    EquuszARNP replied to arelle68's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks, David. I think you've got it nailed down quite accurately

  11. NCLEX 3500: Study software for NCLEX-RN

    EquuszARNP replied to tgriffin888's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I've been using it for a couple months but got the same error message today. It could be they're just doing maintenance - since it's a University website with instructor functions I'm pretty sure they...

  12. Nurse Practitioner or Physician's Assistant?

    EquuszARNP replied to arelle68's topic in General Nursing

    Would you like me to send you the FNP scopes for Oregon and Washington? Perhaps they're less restrictive than where you practice. No one on this thread has said that an NP is on an equal footing with...

  13. Nurse Practitioner or Physician's Assistant?

    EquuszARNP replied to arelle68's topic in General Nursing

    tothct: You're wrong. Do your research. NP's are not "under" physicians in many states. In my state, they practice independently and can/should refer to a specialist directly if there is a patient...

  14. Stepping Over to the Dark Side

    EquuszARNP replied to SweetLemon's topic in General Nursing

    I'm going to be accused of being sexist, but I think this kind of behavior is definitely a female thing. Guys generally don't act this way when one of the dudes starts bucking for

  15. Do you guys really hate nursing this much?

    EquuszARNP replied to damaranicole's topic in General Nursing

    Nursing is a huge field with so many specialties, locations, and niches, that there is simply no reason that someone can't find a nursing job they enjoy. I can't think of any career that has more...

  16. Do you guys really hate nursing this much?

    EquuszARNP replied to damaranicole's topic in General Nursing

    Lame. There are plenty of people who love nursing. This person was obviously never cut out for

  17. Nurse Practitioner or Physician's Assistant?

    EquuszARNP replied to arelle68's topic in General Nursing

    Bajasauce: Nurse practitioners know of all those disorders. If you're going to do a study on whether they were caught or not, better start with the physicians who miss them, because there's a HELL...

  18. Nurse Practitioner or Physician's Assistant?

    EquuszARNP replied to arelle68's topic in General Nursing

    Are you kidding me? How about myriad and ongoing studies, quality control, and research? The state boards of nursing, ANA, NLN and other regulatory agencies are constantly gathering data on that which...

  19. Nurse Practitioner or Physician's Assistant?

    EquuszARNP replied to arelle68's topic in General Nursing

    Well Bajasauce, you may think it's irresponsible, and you're entitled to your opinion, but there are a whole lot of PhD's and experts in the field, along with studies, licensing agencies, and state...

  20. Our School No Likey Your School

    EquuszARNP posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    Received this from USA this morning, in reference to their ADN-FNP program: Dear ---: I'm sorry but we do not give credit for Excelsior courses. That will leave you the following courses to get credit...

    EquuszARNP replied to EquuszARNP's topic in Online Distance Learning

  23. Indiana State University BSN Thread for Current Students

    EquuszARNP replied to chaxanmom's topic in Indiana State University

    Indiana State looked really good at first, but the problem is the length of time. I just got off the phone with their adviser and she said that they only offer 2 nursing courses per semester so just...

  24. NP Salary (independent practice vs. nonindependent)

    EquuszARNP replied to caffeineRx's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    That's correct. NP's can bill most insurance companies separately under their own insurance number. This includes Medicare. Expect this to be expanded under the new healthcare bill as well. Nurse...

  25. Warning - excelsior students

    EquuszARNP replied to robertjankowski's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I don't buy the "cheating" part, but there are several Oregon hospitals that told me to go away because I didn't have clinicals in my program. And that's with 17 years experience as a medic. OHSU and...
