Excellent advice to use the Saunders, I have it with the CD, have not used it to study - though I may consider it since reading this post. I use the textbooks suggested by Excelsior and take the...

personally, I believe that is very ambitious, I am not sure I would be able to do that myself, 5 exams in 13 weeks? wow! good luck whatever you decide! :nurse:

I agree, make SURE your state BON accepts Excelsior, Mine said as long as it was accredited in the state where the college is located, that is good enough for them! Good luck and keep on! :wavey:

congrats!:wavey: I have taken Transition, it is a lot of reading, read all that the study guide tells you to, believe me .......... that's all I can tell you

May I ask if you went to school for this (vo-tech, etc.) and how long was the training? Do you work under the wing of an RN?

YOU DID A GREAT JOB, PAT YOURSELF ON THE BACK, and 40 rez to one nurse is absolutely wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!! are you still working there? :no:

congrats and no you aren't an old dog! you did good!:wavey:

did you talk to anyone at EC about the administrative fee, etc for them to review your transcripts? after that is done you will know which classes transferred and what you need to take, it will all...

can't you take your boards in another state and then apply to GA for an endorsed license? they would probably check to see if you had the clinical hours.

You need to know 'textbook' procedures, theories, etc. What happens when you get out is called 'the real world'. Think textbook and you will do fine. Bridging from LPN to RN is a big change!

Good for you! You will do great!

WoW! you work nights and full time? give yourself a break! I mean you are doing ALOT! ;)

This is so sad, please all of us remain vigilant to protect our patients! sick

I think it is just one of the Gen Eds for a bachelor's degree. Some of the ADN programs are also requiring it now. If you have to take chemistry you will need a background in math.
