Hello everyone! I was finally able to pay for my first exam with excelsior and scheduled my exam for mid October. I just did the first practice exam and scored 55%. I'm kinda bummed about this because I have been studying for this exam for some time. I am using studygroup 101 and excelsior content guide. Starting to feel that I may not be ready for the exam by the date that I gave myself. Please share your scores and experience with this exam with me please:uhoh3:. Getting extremely nervous, especially since tomorrow is the 1st.

You still have 2 weeks, you should be fine. That test was all memorization. If you score in the upper 60s you should be able to get an A or B on the real exam. I don't know about 55%. I would concentrate on the studygroup 101 notes for that particular test. Just memorize the founders and their philosophies and then know what group does what and you should be fine.

Ok thanks so much for the advice! I plan to take the second practice exam around the 15th but in the mean time devote at least three to four hours a day in studying and reviewing the material.

I took this exam a couple of weeks ago. I used the textbooks to study, mostly the Ellis book. The practice exams for this test are great. I used them to guide my reviewing. I scored in the upper 70s and got an A on the exam.

I bought the SG101 notes but didn't use them.

Good luck! :)

hi, when you say know what group does what are you referring to clinical specialty organizations and all the different nursing organizations? Thanks!
