Embarking on my EC journey!

Published

:nurse: I just submitted my app to begin at EC. I have been an LPN for 9 years. Can anyone give me any feedback on their success with this program so far? What are the must have books to be successful? Does anyone have any feedback on the best CPNe sites because the college website didn't provide much info about that. If there is anyone that took the CPNE in the southeast part of the U.S. I would really like your feedback since I am from the Carolinas. I don't want to travel too far. Thanks!smile.gif

Specializes in Med/Surg, Long-Term Care, Urgent Care.

Thanks to everyone for the feedback! I'm just waiting on EC to do my review. I've started reviewing the required content for the Health Safety exam. Good luck to all the newbies starting this journey as well. You may email me at [email protected] :)

Hi everyone!

I too have submitted my transcripts to EC and awaiting their response. I am a respiratory therapist in Tennessee hoping to earn my RN degree. I have read good and bad things about EC, and the horrid CPNE experiences, but I have decided that I am willing to do the hard work required to be successful. I hope to hear from EC within the next couple of weeks. I hope that all of us newbies can encourage and help one another, that would be awesome to have some online EC friends!:)

Finally got my review done with EC and now I am ready to knock theses courses out! Waiting on the rest of my books to arrive. I have set a personal goal to get these nursing exams all done by January 2012. Best of luck to everyone. :)

Scorpio, when did you send yours in? I'm still anxiously awaiting the 'word' from EC... check my email a few times a day! What pre reqs do you still need... or are you done?

They received my transcripts on 6/3 and my review was done 6/14 after I called and asked them how much longer, within a couple of hours it was done. I have to do one more humanities and information literacy.
