O I am so excited! I purchased the study guide from studyguide 101 for a&p today! I'm going to stop thinking about excelsior, and just do it! Any suggestions or helpful tips would be greatly appreciated. I will never have to wonder anymore!

You will also have to do the Focused Clinical Competencies Assessment (FCCA), which is made up of two 8-week courses between your last nursing exam and the CPNE. Most people take both parts of the FCCA at the same time. Wanted to make sure you didn't get blindsided by that!
What practice exams are you talking about?
Practice exams available through excelsior. Once you pay for your exam you can purchase the practice exam. There is 2 forms, a & b. Understand the rationales. It focuses you on areas geared toward the test and shows your weak areas to improve on. They are $75, well worth it
Thank you!
