So glad to see you're still on track! :) Keep it up!

Hi all,

I am waiting for my FCCA to get here. Should be here end of this month. Then it's all about studying for CPNE. Getting ready to send of application for that. I was told 3-5 month wait for SPAC. So, maybe some time around March I'll be taking the dreaded CPNE!! I think I'm going to do a workshop in January - not sure yet, need to find out CPNE date first I think. Also not sure which workshop. I'm thinking Sheri's workshop in Atlanta or maybe Lynn's in Charlotte. Any advice? Good luck every one!!!

Chronicity is scheduled for the 23rd. Life span 2 is Dec 10 and Life Span 3 Dec 15 (bad scheduling options at PV in December it seems, its all I could get). I've paid for all 3 and its my last 3. I have not started studying for LS2 or LS3 yet but I have the first 2.5 weeks off work in December to prepare. I'm so ready to get this behind me and get on to the fun stuff!

Specializes in Dialysis.

Good Luck to everyone, at whatever point in the EC program you are currently preparing for.

I am trying to get motivated to study and conquer LS1, Scheduled the test for mid-December. Feeling like I am just not motivated enough. Reading on Allnurses helps me refocus though.

Thanks to all who post and help encourage those of us still on this journey!!

Just found out this AM I passed FCCA!!! Still waiting for my Lubbock CPNE date. Looking for study partner in Dallas, Tx area! Good luck everyone. We can do this!

Chronicity on Saturday. Then I'm hoping to finish Transitions and Repro. before christmas.

I take Chronicity on Monday (21st) and then off to finish the Life Span series and Micro. Want to finish LS series by mid February and do Micro while waiting for CPNE. :) I am testing about every 3 weeks at this point.

Specializes in LTC.

CPNE this Friday then I'm done :).... Hopefully lol

Good luck to all of you!!!!!
