Have you read through the EPN - CPNE journals on Excelsior's site? I recall reading a journal entry not long ago there from a tester in Savannah.

I haven't, but have heard it's a good test center. as for pointers be sure you can control your nerves , I failed because I was so nervous, know your critical elements,practice documentation. leo2

i tested there in July and had good CE's and CA's. They always have pediatric patients so be aware. Like others have said, keep the nerves in check, use the grid, and keep your mind going forward.

Good luck to you.

Thanks!!

Any surprises with the PCS's? I have reviewed the dvd and the study guide several times. What types of pts did you get to work with?

If you're talking about the Excelsior DVD, please be aware that there are many mistakes in that video -- it's not really meant to teach! I'm sure you noticed, but I just wanted to mention it, just in case.:)

You're right. There are many mistakes and onissions. I was hoping it would give a good idea of what to expect. Thanks for the input.
