I had trouble with the Lifespan series-passed 1 no problem but got a D in both LS 2 & LS3. My own fault tried to shortcut it and use study guides. Started all over and got the books Excelsior recommends, followed the study guides and passed both the second time around. Working on CPNE right now test in May-Excited, nervous and sick all at the same time!! :no:

Sorry forgot to say Health Differences was fine-again just followed study guide. My only problems were LS 2 & LS 3 again my own fault. Good Luck!!

Best of luck on the CPNE. I get sick just thinking about it even though I'm about 4-5 months away from eligiblity. I don't have any texts for the Lifespan exams. I guess I'll invest in some. Thanks for the heads up and good luck!

Specializes in Oncology.

Congrats...I passed it 2 weeks ago & my goodness I hated studying for that one...ur right very dry! Good luck on repro (That is my least fav subject & i think im going to save it for last), let us know how it goes. And as far as studying for the LS series, IMO you should definitely invest in the med/surg book-I bought one edition back for less than $20 (one of the nursing advisors even said the only difference in the 11th & 12th edition was a new CD that comes with the 12th) & it has been a great and primary resource for me. Good luck!!
