    Buy the book - skim the chapters. Buy the companion lab manual - there are study questions in it. There is also an online resource for the book that has - if I remember correctly - a chapter by chapter test question bank. I used all three to study - got an 89% - not curved for us ... took the 89%. It is doable and if you are going to be given the option - take it!
    I'll be taking 310 either next session or the first summer session. The mini-syllabus calls for the 5th edition but there is a newer 6th ed out there. Which did you use?

    Update:
    This is kind of a moot point now. Since I posted the question, I've actually ordered new copies of the 5th edition for both the text and manual - couldn't resist the price and will have to put up with using the older edition. With luck, I can prep for Appraisal while taking Community and test out of it during the Spring 2 session. This would mean I'd have 12 weeks of no courses (who-hoo!)since neither Family Nursing nor Research seem to be offered until Summer 2 or Fall.

    Chuckster i think if you will be taking 310 you will have to get the 6th edition as the prof stated in the email to me that some of the answers in earlier editions are inconsistent.Apparently that is why they had to curve the exam before.She also stated that she personally went over all 100 questions and all answer will be in line with 6th edition.

    So, If your employer does not participate with academic outreach then would you complete the Rn to Bsn online program? I am confused with the website. I applied to OU but I am not sure which program I am in. Does it even matter?

    Hi I am interested in enrolling in the onlin BSN program but I have a few questions. I will graduate from my nursing school in September and I won't take my NCLEX until October so I plan on enrolling for Spring 2013. I want to take some prerequisites that I may need in during the fall at my local community college. Can anyone tell me besides statistics some prerequisites that OU looks for? Is child psychology a prequisite? I do have an associates degree in business.


    Thanks

    I had to take stats, nutrition, junior english (bus communication), and an ART class (I took music). I'm sure others will chime in on other classes they had to take.
