    PVT trick let's see if it still works November 2014

    RNsRWe replied to Calinurse562's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hannah, pretty sure we covered this quite a bit, have you read the other posts directed your way? The NCLEX is scored twice, and both scores are finalized (usually, normally) within 24 hours. You...

    Curious to know why Jahi thread was closed?

    RNsRWe replied to RNIBCLC's topic in Nursing News

    I cannot even believe that a forum dedicated to nursing professionals has a thread in which people argue about what "DEAD" means. Folks.....the girl is dead. No brain. Declared dead. The fact that...

    NCLEX-PN Pearson Vue Trick

    RNsRWe replied to romedizz's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yes. People pass and they also fail at every single number from the minimum ot the maximum. 125 is no different, it's just the number at which the computer determined you had either demonstrated...

    RNsRWe replied to Fearless_leader's topic in General Students

    LOL, here's where checking spelling is a good idea! Pretty sure you didn't feel threatened :) As for abbreviations, OP is one that has been commonly used for a long time on many message boards (not...

    Tattoos in the workplace

    RNsRWe replied to MAH82's topic in General Nursing

    In following your description of what it takes to not judge people by their appearance, why do you exclude face tattoos? Using your own logic, there should be no exception for this. If the...

    Nursing Student Ethical Dilemna

    RNsRWe replied to cbs701's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Interesting. I thought it was not just 'some parts of the Church' but an overall, widely-held belief. Good to know that the Vatican can (and does) recognize when changes of opinion, changes of...

    Debunking the SATA Myth.

    RNsRWe replied to cp1024's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Congrats! Although several of us post something related to SATA questions quite frequently, there is still a pervasive myth out there that getting SATA questions means something. Most of the time,...

    NCLEX-RN Which books to use?

    RNsRWe replied to EMT6530's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yep, it has :) You might do well to use the Search bar (little magnifying glass on the top of the page) to put in key words; there is A LOT of information here and only you know which program would be...

    Is it true that the pearson trick doesnt work anymore?

    RNsRWe replied to xtina213's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Please read akulahawk's post directly above yours. He explains it very well, and should leave you with a much better understanding than you currently have.

    NCLEX

    RNsRWe replied to nkenw1's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The best one for you is the one that is best. No one can answer "which is best" because many people have passed with each of them....as well as failed with each of them. Have you previously attempted...

    Yes, they are referring to you; "OP" stands for either "Original Poster" or "Original Post". In this case....you

    What sort of nurse do you want to be?

    RNsRWe replied to Miss-kate's topic in General Nursing

    I want to be a highly-paid, highly-in-demand nurse consultant on the production set of multi-million dollar movies. Oooh, and a fairy princess

    Testing

    RNsRWe replied to kghammond6's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Choose ONE program, maybe a second so you'll have one different kind of study guide for some rounding-out, but don't get caught up in using a half dozen different programs/manuals or you'll just...

    Can I take the Nclex

    RNsRWe replied to blupixie's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I *think* what you're referring to is when (certain) States allow someone who has completed 1/2 to 3/4 of an RN program to take the NCLEX-PN. Thing is, one must be in good standing at their current...

    Nclex rn 2nd time failed

    RNsRWe replied to kiatkiat's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Take a look at the CPR that came with your failure notice. What does it say? Should give you the breakdown of what areas you were below passing (as well as above passing, if there were any). With...

    RNsRWe replied to StacInTheBoxRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Not only do you need to wait 24 hours in order to allow the scores to finalize, if you HAD submitted your credit card number after only two hours (and your FIRST score was a 'fail') then yes, you...

    Ran out of time but PASSED NCLEX! Also PVT did NOT work for me...

    RNsRWe replied to StacInTheBoxRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The NCLEX is scored TWICE, and it takes up to 24 hours for both scores to be finalized. This is why it is not recommended to put in your card number until at least 24 hours have passed. However, in...

    can you be floated while your on orientation?

    RNsRWe replied to labnars's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Why do people keep running to "is this legal?!" Yes, of course it's legal. But no, it isn't fair to you in completing your agreed-upon orientation. As the others have said, talk to the NM, see what...

    RNsRWe replied to keviisom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Once you have defined what "a life" means to you, compare it to your anticipated nursing school schedule and study requirements, and see how it works. If it doesn't...you need to adjust your...

    ok, VERY funny! It's like the winking smiley: I use it to indicate sarcasm, or irony, like that. I was surprised to find that my teen and his friends use it to indicate flirting! As in 'wink wink'...

    oh, and on the 'roflmao' vs smiley' thing? I'm an OLD internet user (like early 90s kind of old, LOL) and we didn't HAVE 'smiley faces'. We had just the text shorthand, just the acronyms, and they...
