Is there any other study guides or cleft notes for this program. I have Excelsior study guide it is a lot of reading for one topic. I feel like I will never finish the program if I follow their study guides.

I used the Saunders NCLEX RN review to study for this exam (well all of them actually) and passed. I just used the content guide to pick out what I needed to study and took the EC practice tests.
Thank you for the quick reply. I going to have to try it. I been studying day and night since May and I am not done with Carrion. yet not even half way. Did you get good scores?

I also use the EC content guide and read the chapters to look up all information listed. I do use the notes from studygroup101 as an extra guide and I like the amount of info and practice tests they provide for 9.99. Good luck, I am too studying this exam.
how did you get into study group 101

I'm using studygroup101 also - I like them alot!! you can get them on ebay or at www.studygroup101.com
Oh Okay! Thank you.so much. I appreciate.it.
I just went directly to their site http://www.studygroup101.com and paid using paypal 9.99 to download the material then print it from home. def check it out. remember to read up on all material in the EC guide. I also like to take the EC practice tests online, they really give you a good idea of what to expect on the actual test. Dont get discouraged and keep postponing the exam bc you only get 6 months, plus it will only take you even longer to finish. Stay motivated and read as often as you can. It usually takes me 2 weeks to study and test. But when I say 2 weeks, I am reading everyday. You can do this!!! I also like to read others success stories with Excelsior on this site to keep the motivation going. I get excited when others who took this route finish. Good luck and remember to keep reading and schedule that test!!

Studying for this test also. Started reading the med-surg book n realized that i will never get finished, so i started using Saunders which explain the topics much easier. Studygroup 101 is a supplement for the questions. Also take ECE practice exam. Took form A with only reading cancer, now reading cardia n resp. will take form B at the end of month. Schedule to test next month.
Passed with an A :-)
