    Results on hold

    From reading on here it looks like the big majority of the time, when people pay the $200 it is because they have failed the test. In those cases, they will need another exam anyway so the $200 is not...

    Results on hold

    IT is neither good nor bad. A hold is put on any test that has something that needs further review, usually something like a palm scan that didn't take on the first try, or if you took extra breaks...

    Im exploring other healthcare career options
