Welcome! We moved your thread to our Excelsior College forum. Good luck with the CPNE because we know that preparing for it can be a nerve-wrecking experience.

Please contact me [email protected], I have been done with fcca for over a year, and still haven't applied for CPNE because I looked at the material, lost motivation and changed my mind and was going to go to traditional school... change in plans due to a pending divorce and I am going to give Excelsior, and myself, the shot we deserve. I need a study buddy, maybe together we can tackle this thing!! I am in Killeen, TX, hope to hear from you!!

I did the No Sweat Clinical Bootcamp to help me prep. Christy who runs that bootcamp also does an online care plan class. They were invaluable to me in my studies.

Also, if either of you are on facebook there is a group on there called "Let's Conquer the CPNE Beast Together" with lots of EC students who are prepping for CPNE. Some of us who have passed stick around and offer advice and help when asked by those preparing.

Best of luck to both of you!
