   Thanks for the reply. What study guides did you use and how many hours did you study weekly? It seems like the best way to get through the courses is to use study guides for the similar classes from other programs.

   Thanks. I'll look into that. The school I will be attending is nlnac for rn and ccne for bsn. I already have a bs and I guess they want students because the acics accred was a non issue for them for enrollment into the bsn program. Great advice.

    Thanks for that!! I have a few more questions. 1) there are some ccne bsn programs that will accept an rn from an acics school sooo will the ccne accred bsn trump the acics rn school and therefore not be an issue to enroll into a msn-fnp program ? 2)...
