Hi 1MThomas, the pvt appears to be pretty accurate. I have heard of situations (albeit very few) of ppl getting to the cc pg, yet found out they have passed. Have you checked your state BON? I was issued my license even before pearsonvue had the quick results available. I'm in MD. Good luck, I hope your situation is a case of a false negative!

Hi All, I took my exam on July 01. Got the "good" pop-up when I checked later that day (around 6pm). I've read from several sources to wait 'till your status states "delivery successful". I found one post here on allnurses about a false positive, and false negatives seem to happen every now then. From what I've searched and my own experience and as well as my friends, the pvt seems to be accurate. I was issued a license my MBON on July 02, found out the morning of 03. My friends also had theirs a day or two later. My quick result wasn't even available 'till the evening of the 3rd. Of course by then, I already knew.

I usually go to my mail and click on a message to get there. I'm still figuring how to navigate around yahoo, I'm a google person.

Sounds good to me!

Andrea, sorry you guys were put on the spot. Not the best technique to promote knowledge retention. We have orientation next Wed. For us it's at school and not at the hospital. Prof. Mansir feels it's not necessary to go through a 6-8 hr orientation at the site. She also mentioned it gets crowded and makes the whole process too chaotic. We were told to keep our valuable at home and only to bring the necessary items to clinical as we will have a main lounge to store our stuff. She said a student had her textbooks stolen last sem. and advised us to assign ppl to bring in a diff. book and share the resources. Thought that was a great idea. No updates yet regarding our tunics. I would think the orientation would still be a go w/out full uniform. I haven't worked on any school stuff today. Why does everyone need you when you're busy? lol

Wow Andrea, sounds like you had a long, stressful day and need some R & R! I can't believe she expected you guys to already know those procedures, this is after all the first wk in the program.Don't worry to much about her. You'll have the support of your fellow students and you're a smart cookie. :) I don't get that out of know where we were expected to have 3 more modules done by the following day. Where's the planning? So we all stayed up or woke up early to get those done and guess what? We did not have our lab/clinical today...CANCELLED! Here we were, waiting at the student lounge for Prof. Mansir. We thought she got tied up talking in the hallway. So 3:30 comes, then 3:45 and still nothing. Nikki went to the office and that's when she was told about our class. We don't know why it was cancelled. We tried to go to the lab for our practice time, but since we didn't have the lab yet, we were not allowed to do it. We spent a couple of hrs in the MLC doing procalc. Then went out to dinner (4 of us), ate at Austin Grill. Food was ok overall. I ordered seafood quesadillas and boy it smelled like something died. They tried to pass bad seafood as edible. Man, it would have sucked to get sick from that! We had a great time chatting and laughing, though. I hope we get the opportunity do that throughout the semester. I'm off from school 'till Mon, thank goodness I get to sleep in a bit tomorrow...Have a good night and some well deserved sleep!

Andrea, forgot to tell you...Nikki gave me your clip and badge folders. I will give them to you on Monday (or today if I see you, just remind me please). Nikki, when are you leaving for school? I plan to leave around 2:15.

Hey Andrea, I hope your clinical/lab goes well today. We laughed a lot. Prof. Mansir is hilarious and we have a nice group of students, two of which I know from my other classes. I started feeling the drowsiness around 6 and tried to keep the yawing very discreet lol. For some reason, the day felt longer yesterday. I have Bertiz for 110's small group discussion. I like that we sit at one big table for our smaller classes. We were given more modules to complete (3 more) before class today. I wanted to work on them last night but I was too brain-dead. I better get going on them soon. Tina, have a great clinical day! Talk to you all later!

Nikki, I meant to ask you, did you get that email Prof. Mansir sent regarding our meeting time and place? I never got it. (??)

Hi Tina, I hope you had a nice wk @ school so far. mom23boyz is Nikki. She and I have clinical together and we had our 110 lab today w/ Mansir. Who is your clinical instructor? We did not need our lab coat or equipment today. We had lab and MLC orientation and discussed infection control and safety. We were given a supply kit which we will be using throughout the semester. Tomorrow we will be practicing infection control and safety precautions/protocol and were told to bring our mask and gown. I was @ Fenton on Sat and the arrival date for the tunics was still unknown...they are thinking within a week. I agree, we do have a great group of professors and students.

Text me w/ order if you do. See ya soon!

Look on the weekly schd for this wk. I'm bringing the pg. #'s listed... the course guide, pg 19 and 35 and the safety and infection control power point. Bring the certificate too, turn it in today, maybe? I'm leaving in about 15 mins... thinking about making a Starbucks run on the way, do you want something?

I don't think we need it today. Are you bringing yours?

Andrea, have fun in 121!!

Yes, the drug form we took with us to get tested.
