Use the texts EC says to buy. You will need the med/surg, pharm, maternal, and peds.

I don't recommend buying them directly from The College Network (TCN) like I did. I spent over $1,000 on the binders and I was horrified to learn you can get them cheaper if you don't register with TCN and buy them from someone else.

Thanks again smiley SuesquatchRN , your advice and time are precious to me. How are the questions set? and how many questions
cbarrett303 thankyou so much. i actually registered with tcn under a collegues advice ( whom later stopped with the program), and after more research on my part realized that ec route made a lot more sense ( sadly i indebted to tcn $3000+ )
do you happen to know of any online type or any other study resources?
Hello Again and good evenning SuesquatchRN,
Do you happen to know of any online type or any other study resources?
For online resources, try checking out flashcardexchange.com as well. :)
TCN are the study materials for Excelsior and are not a school. I'm sure you already know that, though.
thanx a million :)
it the site flashcardexchange user friendly?
once again thankyou for ur help :)

I used study guides from www.studygroup101.com and raised up my grades. Otherwise, I used a lot of my LPN textbooks, which I found better than my RN textbooks.
Thankyou so much for the pointer, i kinda was feeling overwhelmed with the time pressure i've exerted upon myself but pray that i will be ok. People like you definitely make our world a better place.
Congratulations :)
Remain blessed
