    pearsonvue trick question

    RNsRWe replied to avidhunter3's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Pearson Vue's Quick Results are available 48 hours after completion of the exam. The day of the week (weekday, weekend) doesn't matter. One thing that can (and does) delay these results is if your...

    Dismissed from Chamberlains BSN!

    RNsRWe replied to VPRS0711's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm sorry you're going through this, really. Something you should be aware of (and probably are, but are too upset to think about just now) is that a minimum grade standard must be met, regardless of...

    Just took nclex-pn

    RNsRWe replied to 1031cmp's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    If you waited at least 24 hours after completing the exam before attempting to register again, and you could not, it is *most* likely you passed. If you tried the 'trick' prior to 24 hours passing,...

    Should I drop Microbiology?

    RNsRWe replied to pinkdream182's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I understand the dilemma; you don't want a substandard grade on your transcript, but multiple attempts (including withdrawals) don't look good either. Have you checked into hiring a tutor for this...

    RN to BSN timeline

    RNsRWe replied to Emilyinidaho's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Actually, there are definitely RN-BSN programs that WILL NOT accept an applicant who is not already working as an RN. This assertion is untrue for all of those programs that have this requirement....

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

    Any chance you read any of the messages? There is A LOT of information about this 'trick' all OVER these boards. Before you click 'reply' to something, READ what the other messages say. It will be...

    Pearson Vue trick 2014 -still works!

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

    A charge can be made, even if the expiration date is incorrect when submitted. Just FYI. If you don't want to risk losing $200, don't authorize the payment, period. It seems to be true, based on...

    pearsonvue trick question

    RNsRWe replied to avidhunter3's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Obviously, I really hope you passed! But why did you authorize a charge a SECOND time, after 6 hours? You might have passed....and that $200 is completely non-refundable It's possible you failed,...

    Should I wear this to the next staff meeting?

    RNsRWe replied to Guttercat's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    ok, I got it instantly, and smiled broadly. NO, I don't think I'd wear it in public either, but I suppose it'd make a nice sleep/lounge shirt at home, while I was OFF!

    Can't Pass NCLEX, So What Jobs Can I Get With My Nursing Degree?

    RNsRWe replied to eutawville11's topic in Nursing Career

    Wow, this thing is still alive?!? There's quite a long history for this.....although the OP has LONG since left the building, so to speak. Two and a half years, actually. Perhaps some background...

    Pearson Vue trick 2014 -still works!

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

    You should be very careful in giving out this advice, because people HAVE been charged $200 only to find out later that they passed.....and that registration fee is completely non-refundable. I'm...

    Labor and Delivery New Grad?

    RNsRWe replied to AnaLong's topic in Ob/Gyn

    It depends on the needs of the department as to whether you could get hired on as a new grad in L&D. In some places, they will orient you as a new nurse, no problem. In many others, though,...

    How did you get your job?

    RNsRWe replied to scamper22's topic in General Nursing

    Not a great answer, but "it depends". If you are working as a CNA while in nursing school, your employer might be more inclined to hire you once you become a nurse simply because they know you (and,...

    Unsure nursing is for me

    RNsRWe replied to newgrad1988's topic in Nursing Career

    It is incredibly common for new nurses to feel as you do! The first year of nursing always contains plenty of growing pains.....accompanied by tears, anxiety, fear, worry, and just about every other...

    PVT after 24hrs

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

    Pearson Vue updated its registration software August 23rd; those who wish to try "the trick" have now gone about it a different way. Thing is, it's no more accurate (but is more costly, potentially)...

    RNsRWe replied to yangq904's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The posting of statistics isn't intended to hurt anyone, just provide information. There's an expression "forewarned is forearmed", meaning that if you know in advance of a situation what you're up...

    pearsonvue trick question

    RNsRWe replied to avidhunter3's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    There is really a very simple, very cheap answer to this problem: wait for official results. They are free. If you live in a State that participates with PV's Quick Results option, you can pay eight...

    Knitting during class: ok or not?

    RNsRWe replied to BusyBee91's topic in General Students

    Hold on a minute. You wonder if the OP is serious in her question about knitting, but you go through some really WILD leaps to conclusions that have absolutely NO correlation at all: you honestly can...

    Knitting during class: ok or not?

    RNsRWe replied to BusyBee91's topic in General Students

    Several people on this thread have said "if you have to do something with your hands, doodle". But based on your post, even doodling would get its share of naysayers! The OP can't seem to win, I...

    Which classes should I take, and will I make it?

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

    Much will depend on the school you intend to transfer into. Some schools are highly competitive and will only accept the highest-performing candidates, and C's will not cut it. Others have a bit...

    reasons to go into nursing over social work?

    RNsRWe replied to Nursetobe25's topic in General Nursing

    No, it is inaccurate. Nursing requires a fair amount of psycho-social education and skills, but we are not social workers. It's not that we're "taking over" social work; it's ALWAYS been part of...
