Looking for major advice on obtaining my A.S rn. I am currently an LPN and have been one to two years in Mass. I recently got laid off from a state correctional facility and decided it was opportunty to endeavour.

As of march 09 i signed up wit the college network ( a lot of controversy) , however during my investigation, i learnt that using the excelsior study guide and taking the eight ( classes and exams) and i believe one Nsg concept class, i should be able to take and pass my boards.

If this sounds right please kindly advice me.

Also can this be done within four months ( not having to work)?

????How many hrs of study a day is recommended?

I am using the txt bk suggestions from the excelsior study guides and answering the questions at end of ea chap.

What i s the best way for me to ennsure success, please any advice?

You can do all of the exams within 4 months, yes, but then you'll have to take the clinical exam. I am going to request that this thread be moved to the DIstance Learning forum. Answers to a lot of your questions are there.
