Just passed Essentials in Chronicity!!!!

Published

Boy was it a hard test! By the end I was just praying for a "C". Which is what I got. Some of the practice questions were on there but for the most part it was strictly from the books. I did the worst in functional assessment because I was so focused on End of life care and Sensory Impairment. I would like to thank everyone on here for all their encouragement. It goes a long way. Now I'm off to register for Essentials in Reproductive health.

congrats

Receiving (and giving) test questions would be considered cheating in any program, and EC is no exception. In addition to that, EC has a very large test bank, so the likelihood that you will have the same questions as another student on any given exam is small.

My suggestion is that you study the material provided like everyone else in order to pass the exam. The course outlines provided by EC cover anything that you might see in the test. EC also has practice tests that you can use to gauge your weaker areas, so that you can focus more on those while you study.

I would also like to respectfully ask that you refrain from asking for test questions from the other students in the future.

I understand the test questions, but I was wondering if we are allowed to discuss the questions from the practice tests? Im not too sure if we all get the same questions if we buy the practice tests, but there were a few I had questions about and would love to be able to discuss them with others.

Also, I couldnt print the tests to study from so I have been typing out the questions, answers, and rationale. If it is "legal" I would share. I know how expensive it can get buying the exam, fees, books, and THEN add $60 a pop for practice tests...

-Thanks

Nope ... you aren't supposed to reproduce or share the practice exams, either. Per the EC website here: https://www.excelsior.edu/Excelsior_College/Excelsior_College_Examinations/Excelsior_College_Practice_Exams/EC_Practice_Exams_FAQ

Q: May I take notes on the practice exams or share the practice exam questions with others?

A: No. The practice exam questions are protected by copyright and may not be disclosed in part or as a total examination. When you register for your practice exam, you will be asked to agree to abide by the Excelsior College Academic Honesty Policy and Electronic Use Policy before completing your registration. You can review these policies by clicking on the relevant link at the bottom of any Excelsior College Web site page.
