When the previous poster mentioned NCLEX-RN review books, he was referring to Saunders, Kaplan, Cliffs Test Prep, Lippincott, or any number of review books that can be found on the shelves of typical bookstores.

You can get an NCLEX-RN review book from any major bookstore such as Borders, Barnes & Noble, or over the internet through www.amazon.com and www.Ebay.com

Don't forget Mosby, that's who I used.
I also got my books from ecampus.com, they were the best deal for used books with free shipping back then, but this was before Ebay existed.

Does anybody know if the credits you earn at Excelsior can be used at any other accredited colleges?
Thanks,

I am also considering goin through Excelsior. I do have a few questions however. I have no college credits. How do get your general requirements accomplished? Do you have to take an online class or can you purchase study books and take the exam? On the website, it says that you can take 6 credit exams for 275. Does that mean the exam itself without the online or school classes? The school I was going to for my LPN now has an RN program that includes prereqs. It is a year long and 20k. I would like to attend but I like the idea of not being in a classroom setting right now. How does the price of Excelsior compare to that? Sorry for all of the questions. Thank you in advance for the info.

Does anyone out there know of those who have gone through EC successfully; and are they respected as RN's? I don't have the 20k to go to a college; plus, I work fulltime and must go to college on-line! EC also has an RN to BSN program. Has anyone gone through that? Thanks!

Not all boards of nursing will accept an Excelsior education. California is one prime example that comes from the top of my head.
