Hello Everyone!
I am just looking into obtaining my RN with excelsior. There are many options. Has anyone used I Studysmart.com? What do you think. I don't want to sign a contract with Chancellors or Rue. I studysmart looks like you can pay as you go.
Any opinions?
thanks,

Go to Ebay and buy study guides there as you need to for a fraction of the cost! It is the only way to do it. Wished I knew then what I know now!! Good luck

istudysmart is here in Nashville. I tried their studyguides (buying on ebay) and thought they were crap. I mainly used the free study guides supplied by Excelsior but did buy several study guides. Another great resourse is:

or

they can give you tons of good info and are also a resource to buy used study guides. I graduated 4 years ago. It's the best thing I've ever done for myself. I graduated at age 46 ! Good Luck!

istudysmart's study guides ARE crap. I bought the one for A&P and lifespan and it was of NO benefit as far as passing the EC test was concerned. About all it did was fill my mind with a bunch of extra junk I didn't need to know.
Save your money. Buy a study guide from Chancellor's or College Network off ebay if you feel like you need a study guide.
