so, i just had to run in and say thank you!!!!! thank you to this web site, and to the many new friends i've made in the bajillion hours i have spent since august of last year combing this board for the answer and support in my earning my adn and license....i started excelsior a little over a year ago "against all odds"....where i live, tcn is very popular (???) and we have a "highly" acclaimed associate's program...great brick and mortar school, but with those hours, who can work and be a mom and go to school full time....so i set out into the great unknown of excelsior. against the advice of my coworkers, my family, my fellow nurses, and the teachers that i work with for clinicals in my hospital. thanks to all of you, and some really hard work, i completed all the nursing classes, & 2 gen eds by may then i passed the cpne in august of this year. took boards last week, passed in 1 try and am now officially an rn! so, thanks again, to all my friends, confidants, board buddies, whom ever had a hand in helping m through. i know i wouldn't have made it nearly as quickly without all of your support! merry christmas to all!!! julie
