  1. PVT trick

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to staple's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    sounds like you passed. PVT was accurate for me, too. just relax and prepare for the excitement once you see that "PASS" on quick results (even though you knew it was

  2. Prayers needed

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to lisa861971's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I scored 50%'s in uworld and I passed, so you have a

  3. Pearson vue trick

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to Devonsaulsberry25's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I really think the people who are posting that are doing it wrong. it seems like people don't understand that you have to go all the way through with the trick - ie, actually try to get the CC...

  4. Took my Nclex yesterday

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to tameen's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    the PVT works as soon as you get the email from pearson after taking the exam saying they acknowledged you taking it. I did it 1 hour after the exam, the day after, and then the day after, and all...

  5. What Nobody Told You About Graduate School

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to nurselyfe4115's topic in General Nursing

    I'm pretty sure every students wants an A, but nursing school just doesn't happen like that. I strove for an A in all my semesters, ending up with B's and B+'s. As the saying goes, always a...

  6. Resigning before 6 month probation period - ineligible for rehire?

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to DesertSky's topic in General Nursing

    I don't see what the issue is. as another poster mentioned, go to the new job, stick it out and this 'black mark' may not be as big of a deal. are you planning on jumping ship at the new job, too?...

  7. What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story?

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to steffck's topic in General Nursing

    this is also such a cautionary tale. we sometimes brush off the little things - like someone saying they just don't feel right (and after all, the patients are the ones who know their bodies the best)...

  8. Pearson vue

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to Emily.'s topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    the credit card number has to be right. you change the expiration date. for example if your card expires Sept 2016, just change it to October 2016. I also put the wrong security code just in case...

  9. NCLEX pvt

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to JNS_87's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    ^ my suggestion to you is the Hurst program and Uworld. Uworld questions were hard and this NCLEX was just as difficult, IMO. I did all the questions in uworld, took notes on stuff that I never...

  10. 200 gone- PVT tool right, second time ?

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to rn-aspirant's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    you did the trick wrong and you won't get anything other than that message from now on because it took your payment. so even if you end up passing (but you won't confirm it using the PVT) you're out...

  11. NCLEX pvt

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to JNS_87's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    the NCLEX gets revamped every 3 year. unfortunately for everyone who took it this year (moi included) it is supposedly a harder version than the one it replaces. so your assessment of how in depth...

  12. Is 32 to late to go to a nursing program ?(ADN)

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to Samyong's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was 36 when I graduated from an ADN program

  13. Was this workplace violence? What should I do?

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to Irving's topic in General Nursing

    I've seen it happen too, with the opposite result. The poor lady ended up resigning. There are various degrees of herd mentality, and in OP's case, it appears there is a deep rooted culture there...

  14. Was this workplace violence? What should I do?

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to Irving's topic in General Nursing

    sounds like a toxic culture. ie, someone else kindly reminding you that G will lose his pension if he loses his job, as if that's your problem and it also hints of retaliation should that actually...

  15. Fake Nurse?

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to RN1994#'s topic in Nursing Professionalism

    See post #18

  16. Poor Judgment, Didn't notice Compartment?

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to morningland's topic in General Nursing

    if it makes you feel better, OP, I learned something from your 'mistake' and thank you for

  17. Do women find male nurses attractive?

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to Sykadia's topic in Men in Nursing

    When talking about potentially gay people, ya'll know what a beard is, right? I just couldn't read the beard talk without a smirk on my

  18. so embarrassed...

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to kesia123a's topic in General Students

    3-4 hour lectures with no breaks (snack/bathroom or otherwise) is extremely unrealistic and bordering on sadistic. I ate/drank and went to the bathroom on average twice a lecture, so I sat closer to...

  19. Debating on On-Campus classes vs Online

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to RainbowHead's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm taking online Rn-BSN and the school charges an additional $300 for an online course vs a regular in class course...just

  20. Is it normal that my school doesn't teach us IVs?

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to Annie_1101's topic in General Students

    so if someone told you to address the elephant in the room, are you looking for an actual elephant? Point being, you are taking something completely literal and out of context. the analogy to a...

  21. Should mean people be allowed to be mean at work?

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to jessimee's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Misery loves company. It's not just a saying, people who are miserable truly make others around them miserable, too. I don't care if it's a personality flaw or if someone's having a bad day - my...

  22. Linguistic Pet Peeves

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to Jedrnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I call aus jus (the beef dipping) old jews. I just find it easier to say LOL. the s at the end of aus tells my brain I need to say it, even though it's

  23. So you're just a nurse?

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to l1234567's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not sure gloating should be a motivating factor to enter this

  24. Linguistic Pet Peeves

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to Jedrnurse's topic in General Nursing

    ^ I heard that in my head as I was reading it

  25. Linguistic Pet Peeves

    NuGuyNurse2b replied to Jedrnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I didn't know the correct term was "taken aback" by something. I rarely heard the 'a' in front, to me it always sounded like people said 'I was taken back by...' - so for the longest time I would say...
