Just took the worst test of my life... ETHICS!!!

Nursing Students Excelsior

Published

I am sure I have said that before about all my EC nursing exams, but this was AWFUL!! I can't believe how much this test entails. I passed with a "C", which I will take. I was hoping to do better, but hey.. it's over!!!

If anyone needs to take this, I would suggest Lisa Arends material on ebay. It was very helpful.:bugeyes:

Thanks for the tip and the scare. Lol. What else did you use to study?

Specializes in Nurse Scientist-Research.

It was one of the most difficult exams I ever took, and I include nursing curriculum. I took this back in February after intense study. Came out of the exam room and was took ashamed to look at my results sheet the nice lady slid into the manila sleeve. I was positive I failed. I was shocked when I got to the car, looked at my grade and made an "A".

I recommend Lisa Arends, but not just that. I also highly recommend the practice exams offered by Excelsior though they cost a bit. Strangely one of the materials that helped me bring everything together (but would not have been enough by itself), was the "Complete Idiot's Guide to Ethics". I was able to get it for my Kindle which was very convenient.

I have heard that Dantes (DSST) offers an Ethics exam that is transferable, I would definitely check into that rather than take the Excelsior version if there is any way to get away with it.
