    NCLEX and SATA

    RNsRWe replied to palliative101's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yes. Why would you believe it isn't possible? People pass without getting drag/drop. They pass without getting an EKG question. Receiving many or few SATA style questions isn't indicative of...

    PVT question

    RNsRWe replied to king2020's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The PVT isn't "true", it isn't "false", and it isn't "accurate". It is a glitch of the registration system in that MOST of the time if you pass the exam you will be unable to create a duplicate...

    Question about NCLEX posts

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

    Myths are long-lived, it seems, and that includes the one concerning the "level" of the SATA question. People may write a million posts about the myth, but it doesn't make it any more true than if it...

    Taking the NCLEX Question

    RNsRWe replied to Paigebreanne's topic in General Students

    you might consider looking for employment as soon as possible after passing the NCLEX. I say this because in most areas of the country if you could even GET a job in 2 to 3 months you'd be doing...

    RNsRWe replied to florida89's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Superman, you could never pass with only knowledge, comprehension. You always had to be able to demonstrate proper application of ability and proper analysis of a given situation. That's not new. The...

    NCLEX yesterday...

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

    No, not a myth, because that IS how the test works. However, there is definitely truth to the idea that if you are uncertain about a topic, you will tend to "see" it more than it might really be...

    Become a Nurse without Nursing School

    RNsRWe replied to Longa's topic in General Nursing

    Alas, no, it went to the Lost Zone of Locked Threads because some people (who I imagined recognized themselves?) complained. Enough hits to the Report button can get a perfectly entertaining thread...

    No, the truly tragic loss to The Locked Zone was a gem entitled The Mockery of Nursing.

    Become a Nurse without Nursing School

    RNsRWe replied to Longa's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, but would he still be willing to do the job for 5/8 the pay? Or would he be trying to find someone who actually WENT to college to let him know if that's more or less than

    NCLEX help

    RNsRWe replied to buttercup323's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Well.....stopping at the minimum number of questions (or, in this case, one more than the minimum) indicates you weren't doing well enough in any domain to continue to test, OR you were doing so...

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

    If this helps any, you should remember that the test anyone sees is going to be different than yours. The design of the exam is that you receive questions in each of the domains of knowledge until...

    PVT and nclex yesterday

    RNsRWe replied to KaltmanRN15's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The answers are Yes....and very small. Sorry. MOST of the time if Pearson Vue lets you create another registration it is because you failed. However, SOME of the time it allows that registration...

    VA Nursing Salary Negotiation

    RNsRWe replied to Surg-OncRN's topic in Government, Military

    The quick and dirty answer is "maybe" :) The pay schedules are pretty well defined, and your degree absolutely matters when assigning a level/grade. If you feel you are offered too low an amount...

    VA Hiring Process

    RNsRWe replied to wife&mommyRN's topic in Government, Military

    Step increases are not automatic. The only automatic (read: non-merit) increase given is when the employee population of a facility as a whole is granted a COL increase. FWIW, the "COL" has no real...

    I have no idea what MQA service is; is it a Florida-specific service? I don't want to build false hopes, of course, but I'm not so sure I'd trust anything other than Pearson Vue's results, since they...
