    PVT clarification

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

    There is A LOT of details about how this works all over this forum; I personally wrote it out many times, as did several others, so....take a look around :) If you live in a State that participates in...

    Pearson Vue trick 2014 -still works!

    RNsRWe replied to terri8's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It is computer-scored both times. As for the likelihood of passing, that'd be hard to say, as the only real way to know what percentage of the time the second score is a 'pass' when the first score...

    Pearson Vue trick 2014 -still works!

    RNsRWe replied to terri8's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm doing a copy/paste to save myself the re-typing: As for the PVT: everyone is directed to the credit card screen, regardless of test results. You would have to actually submit your financial...

    PVT IS DEAD! Don't try the "new" trick

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

    First off, the number of SATA questions, or even their presence, means nothing. They are not higher level questions, nor lower level questions. They are a format type for questions to be presented,...

    Just finished my nclex freaking out!

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

    Advice? Yes. Stop freaking out; it has never been known to help anyone.....ever :) The number of SATA questions is irrelevant. They are merely a format option. If your State participates in Quick...

    Late Quick Results?

    RNsRWe replied to KP826's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    If your results were placed on hold at any point, it can take longer than 48 hours. Once a hold is placed, it takes anywhere from a day to three to lift....and then takes time for the Quick Results...

    failed 2nd timei

    RNsRWe replied to khaleesi123's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I think you should consider a tutor who specifically offers NCLEX-preparation and study plans, or a live review course. Being out of school for 2 years means you are facing more challenges than a new...

    Just took nclex - pn

    RNsRWe replied to blackch3rry's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It isn't 'maintenance'. It's how the software works. The double-scoring process is completed at some point within a 24-hour period after completion of the exam. You cannot reasonably rely on any...

    PVT For New Nclex PN

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

    Sorry Well, if you did fail, you will get a CPR (candidate performance report) that will tell you what areas you need to focus on for next time, so you'll be ready for whatever they throw at you!...

    PVT For New Nclex PN

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

    The PVT is usually correct, but not always (hence, 'the trick', not 'official results'). Your exam is scored twice within a 24 hour period. If you play the 'trick' after the first scoring, but...

    "Please pray for me to pass"...?

    RNsRWe replied to RNsRWe's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    LOL, I never even realized that it could look that way until I saw a couple of people comment on that! I had to go back and look at the title again to see what the heck they were talking about!...

    "Please pray for me to pass"...?

    RNsRWe replied to RNsRWe's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    You pretty much nailed it...thanks :) It has caused misunderstandings to those who are unfamiliar with the practice, but it is commonnplace within observant circles to neither write, type, paint,...

    Scholarships for 2nd degree students=nonexistant?!

    RNsRWe replied to Summers3's topic in General Students

    Financial aid offices often have postings of available scholarships in the community; see what's there and for what you might be eligible. Nursing was a second degree for me, but I qualified for...

    Thoughts on Accelerated MSN for Bachelor's in another area

    RNsRWe replied to kmbrink's topic in General Students

    I'm trying to picture how one can do an accelerated Masters in Nursing program....without actually being a nurse first? Someone else is going to have to jump in on this

    RNsRWe replied to ernesto34's topic in General Students

    Hi, Ernesto, and welcome to AN! It's very reasonable for students to ask for help with homework, and we do offer quite a bit of that here. However, it is NOT reasonable to simply post a question from...

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

    Difficulty is.....difficult to assess, really, when it comes to comparisons between pre-req science classes and core nursing classes. In the hard sciences, it's more about the ability to retain info...

    AP biology

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

    A 3 all but guarantees the OP WON'T skip Bio in college. Schools that will consider an AP course to skip won't consider less than a 4; even then, it's not suggested that Biology be the course to skip...

    AP biology

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

    Then you need to speak to your instructor about it; you said "AP" which tells me "high school". You can pick up study tips by reviewing the forums here, but in the end you need to pass the course the...

    Quadriplegics & shock

    RNsRWe replied to rdavis37's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If I'm understanding this correctly, you answered an ad (or were somehow otherwise notified of the job opening) and accepted a job for which you have absolutely no training, no experience, and no help...

    Crowd funding: Yay or Nay?

    RNsRWe replied to roser13's topic in General Nursing

    Considering some of the requests for donations, I imagine that they might very well have asked these people for help. And after being told no, or being told no because of too many 'yeses' over the...

    RNsRWe replied to bubbles__'s topic in General Nursing

    I'm finding your question a little confusing, since in order to be eligible to even take the NCLEX, you would have applied to your State Board of Nursing. You don't sit for the exam at al without...

    Does BON really take 48 hours or am I going crazy?

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

    I have no idea how long the BoN takes to update its website in your State; some take one day, some a few days or a week, others several weeks. I think the "48 hours" you're thinking of is the time it...
