There are no hours as it is a challenge exam. There is no longer an NC1 exam are you referring to the NURX-210 fundamentals of nursing?
I'm sorry yes. thank you. that one. I have a school that will accept it but asked for class hours so i didnt know what to say.
Do you have any advice for study prep? ive read to get an essential healthcare safety book and a nc1 study guide as well as sauders books.
There is an exam content guide available for free on the EC website. It's a UExcel exam, not NC1. The other nursing exams require you to enroll in EC.
Go to the excelsior.edu website, click credit by exam, UExcel > lets get started > choose your exam > nursing > fundamentals of nursing under "register now "purple button one link is to recommended study material the second link is to the free exam
Content guide/syllabus. Start there.
Once you register you should have the opportunity to sign up for a practice exam ($75) to prep also
The recommended text as listed in the study guide is Kozier. & Erb's Fundamentals of Nursing... Not essentials of health & safety.
