I think the Baptist is used in Amarillo for a site, it is very easy if you follow what you learned in the workshop. I know of a fantastic tutor in Amarillo if you want her email. Know your grid and PCS and you will find it a breeze but it helps to have had a personal tutor who has taken the exam. Just let me know if you want any contacts. Good luck

There is a site in Amarillo, but it's NWTHS.

My advice -- visit the Excelsior Peer Network (EPN) and check out the CPNE board as well as the CPNE journals -- many students post their grids and mnemonics for others to use. Good luck!

Question Re: Need Excelsior CPNE Advice Please!!!
I am scheduled to take the CPNE September 2008, any tips, welcomed. I'm confused, I've heard memorize the entire study guide, memorize the critical elements, don't memorize anything. Also what is the average age of the students, I am a grandmother, and have lived more than half of a century.

Welcome to allnurses...you need this forum. If you don't memorize the critical elements you will fail fail fail fail fail.....Look around and read the CPNE threads. You will find good stuff like where to get the CPNE Critical element flashcards and Robs CPNE video.....Let me know if I can help. We also have a great friend Sue who is doing her CPNE as I type this and at the end of her first day she posted her experince. I am hoping she does the same today so watch out for that. It is a great way to learn. I also recommend a CPNE workshop.....

Thanks for the info. I am scheduled to take EC Workshop in August.
Guess I'll hit the study guide, and flash cards after taking my Ginko Biloba. I have the DVD from EC. Someone name Mary Marsh stars in it.
