So I passed Life Span 3 today. Made a B!!! And I am verrrrry excited about that. :singing: I think I understand now why I did not get a response to my last post. It's hard to pinpoint any content because the exam questions were all over the place. Not to mention I had lots of SATA questions! Well, movin' on to the FCCA soon. I'm just trying to hang in here. :dead:

Specializes in LTC and Pediatrics.

I am finishing A&P 1 as it was too old. I am thinking that I am going to do the online classes as I don't seem to do too well with the study and test system as I am a procrastinator.

How have you found the nursing classes to be?

The online classes have been very challenging for me. There have been times when I really needed a classmate for support. I do like how Excelsior gives you the flexibility to study around your work and family obligations, but you have to be VERY disciplined to cover the information before your testing time expires. And it is a lot of information to cover! So it's still the glass half empty, half full. Either way, it's gonna require some major prioritizing. :yes:

Thanks. So do how you feel about the FCCA so far? Just wondering if you decided to complete them one at a time. Im not sure of how it's set up but I imagine it's just as difficult as everthing else, lol. I saw where some said they "took 'em together". Hope you continue to do well.

I did them together. It is very do-able. Plus if you fail one, you are not further behind than if you took them separately. I would study one for a few days, then the other for a few and switch back and forth. I also took one final test early in the week so I can take the other later and have them spaced out.

That test was very difficult for me. I'm glad it's over. I'm taking FCCA on JANUARY. I will take both. Good luck to you
