  3. Excelsior LPN to RN

    EC was a great program for me as well. It requires a great amount of independence and motivation but I truly enjoyed it and glad I choose that route. Didn't find it nearly expensive as others I looked into. WGU has accepted several credits I obtained...
  4. Quit before I even start..?

    I understand your point. I'm not necessarily excited about going back to school..again..but the positions I desire require it so to be where I want to be I'll do what I have to do. If you're comfortable in your position and don't plan leaving I agree...

  10. Anyone only use 1-3 resources and pass NCLEX?

    I used Saunders, Lacharity and the 3 week course from NCSBN for $50. Total less than $100 in resources and passed first attempt with 87 questions.
  11. Quick Results on a Saturday

    The amount of time while taking the exam doesn't have anything to do with a hold. I took my exam Thursday, 87 questions in 50 minutes. My results were available on Saturday.

  14. NCLEX

    Being in a totally different facility definitely played a part in increased anxiety. Fortunately for Excelsior exams I was able to go to a local community college that has an approved testing center. For NCLEX I had to drive 2 hours for a Pearson Vue...
