Looking For Chancellor's Study Guides

FROGGYLEGS, LPN · Apr 28, 2004

I am looking for Chancellor's Study Guides for the ASN program. I am looking for everything from Pre-req's to the Nursing Concepts 1-7 Guides. Please let me know if anyone is selling any of these and the condition with price. Thanks in advance for helping me prusue my ASN degree.

There are some good discussion forums for EC students on yahoo. A lot of study guides are offered for sale on them. One even has it's own swap board. A lot of folks are listing them on ebay now. Are you interested in only Chancellors or would any company (RUE, Moore, DLSI) suffice?

I, too, am looking for Chancellors Study Guides for Microbiology and Lifespan Developmental Psychology. I do have the content guides and textbooks borrowed from friends who have actually taken the classes. The head of my program suggested that I try to test out of them through Excelsior College ( I will be doing an accelerated BSN program in the fall) but I am in a time crunch. Summer session starts late May-mid June, so I need to take both of these exams before then to know whether or not I passed and whether or not I need to take summer session.

From what I have read on allnurses-it seems like the Chancellors are the most streamlined. I went on ebay last night and nothing came up when I typed in Chancellors Study Guides. Any other suggestions on the other study guides and/or places to get them used?

I substitued the CLEP Human Growth and Development for Lifespan. Excelsior college now accepts either for the required class. If your school will accept the Growth and Devo. CLEP then I would take the CLEP. CLEP tests will cost you $50-70 which is a lot less than DANTES or EC. I also thought the CLEP was quite easy being mostly things already learned in LPN school. REA makes CLEP study guides you can buy at any bookstore for $20.

What I search for on EBay when looking for guides is "Excelsior College" in both titles and description. If you want to search for Chancellors I'd leave off the "study guide" part and just put Chancellors. Right now there is a RUE micro listed. I have my Micro study guide, but it is DLSI not Chancellors.

Any of the yahoo groups for EC always have books listed for sale as well.
