Published

Hello fellow LPN to RN nurses! My name is Ashley and I just wanted to give you some input on the tests I took and hoping to get input on ones I have yet to take! Hopefully we can all help eachother out!!

Passed on First try with a C (hey C's get degrees!)

Health Safety

Transition to RN role

Foundations in Nursing

For all 3 of those exams I only studied solely from the Excelsior Practice Exams and study cards I found on cram.com

I do have the disc of study group 101 that I purchased for 50 dollars For all the exams, I just started using it for reproductive health.

I am currently studying for Reproductive health and then I will have all 3 Life Spans to take.

feel free to give your input on anything or ideas!!!

Goodluck friends!

Hello, everyone I know this may sound crazy but I just wanted to know. I currently have an Associates Degree and I do have all of their required courses done already. I am not a Lvn/ Lpn, do you have to be a nurse already in order to attend this online school?

You must be a healthcare person of certain types: Excelsior College | Admissions at Excelsior College: Requirements

Specializes in Emergency Medicine.

Either a LPN/LVN or a Paramedic. The thought is that being one of these providers has allowed you to gain the clinical skills necessary to succeed as an RN. I don't see how someone who is not in one of these two positions can complete a practically all online RN school and be a safe practitioner. I actually think there should also be a years of experience clause for LPN's and Paramedics, you should have to practice for at least 3 years before taking a bridge program such as this.
