Please select the 1 correct answer for each question. Remember to use care with your cursor so the
computer does not think you are selecting an answer when you are not.
Final course grades will be posted by the end of the week in which you complete the final exam UNLESS
there is a computer glitch. Your grades will be posted on GET and it takes GET 48 business hours to post
the final grades after I enter them. Please continue to check GET in that time frame. I will send out an
announcement letting you know when I have posted the grades so contacting me about GET will not be
helpful to you.
Thanks for a great summer semester. Hope to see you in the future. Positive thoughts to each of you
regarding taking the NCLEX successfully.
