Anyone use Studyguide101 for Excelsior???

Im studying to take the Excelsior transition exam next month and I purchased the studyguide101 and so far everything that is on it is what the content guide is telling me to study. I also purchased the books needed for this exam. I wanted to know if anyone has used the study guide for this exam and passed?????? what do you all recommend. Im trying to pass this exam on the first try any advice is appreciated. Thank You

I would still do the required reading from the content guide and just use studyguide101 as a set of notes. I used sg101 as an additional study aide for chronicity and was suprised at the errors I found in sg101, and it seemed to veer off track from the EC Content guide. Just my 2 cents ;)

For Transitions, I did feel like SG101 was pretty much spot on, Transitions is pretty much a history test. I passed using only SG101 for this exam... but I would not recommend using it as your only source for any exam.

I have found some errors now that I am farther in the program in many of the notes for the nursing content and some of the practice exams. I think that their notes follow the older Excelsior content when the exams were numbered and called Nursing Concepts.

There is no better way to study for an Excelsior exam than to print the content guide and do the required reading. Excelsior seriously gives you all the tools to pass right there and the questions are almost right out of the textbooks sometimes.

And I tell this to everyone--Saunders NCLEX-RN comprehensive review is the best investment! It will break it down for you and the practice tests are awesome :-)
