Of all tests to fret over this was the one for me. No experience at all in this area. The test was a breeze! I waaaay over-studied for it! Yay! I used Excelsior's study guide and looked up the stuff in the textbooks. That was it, other than drive myself nuts over worrying about passing it ;-)

Thanks for posting, I take this test on Friday and my Nerves are all over the place.
Glad to know excelsior's content guide prepared you. Did you by any chance take the practice tests?

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I have already rescheduled this one 3x's!!! I am so SCARED of it! I adopted so I missed out on the antepartal part of motherhood! I have scheduled it AGAIN for this Friday. Because of your sharing...I WILL NOT RESCHEDULE IT AGAIN...I PROMISE! I only have 4 EC exams to take but I am stuck in this moment because I am so intimidated by the Repro exam!
YOU are my hero! THANK YOU!

I took this exam 2 months ago, I feel the same way as over studying. I took Chronicity a month ago as well. Tomorrow i'm taking Transitions. I pray that I pass this exam. I know I will. Life and death lies in the power of our tongue. We have what we say. After tomorrow I have lifespan 1-3, FCCA, and CPNE. Wow! My Lord. Keep on pressing we can do this. I pray for everyone that's doing excelsior. Best wishes to all! Anyone with any comforting words for Transition?

Good luck on Transition... I have to take it next month so nervous... let us know how you did...
I passed! I didn't do as well as I thought. I thought I made atleast a "b" but came out with a C. I was very disappointed. The test seemed relatively easy. Well on to the next exam. Any tips or pointers for the Lifespan series. I've read a lot of post about repeating these exams which makes me nervous. I'm thankful to God for passing.
YAY! YAY! YAY! I AM HAPPY FOR YOU!!!! Who cares about the grade anyway! It's nice to get all A's and B's but what counts is BOARDS which you are quickly on you way too!!! YAY! I don't even know you, AND I AM REALLY HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!
Repro had me the most scared-I have no kids, never worked with kids nor have I ever babysat in my life-so needless to say if I can pass it, anyone can ;-) Transitions was a breeze as well. Did that one three weeks ago. I know I over study, but it's hard not to over study ;-) I'm doing the life spans now, all two weeks apart. I did just the study guide, no practice tests or anything. Good luck, I guess!
Thank you all so very much. Nurses don't have to know nurses to be happy for them. We are FAMILY! What are you studying to take them 2 weeks apart. I want to be finished with them by August 31st myself. Which do you suggest first out of the lifespan series?
BerryHappy and Mystic2fire, where are you in your studies? Are you two almost done or done with excelsior?
