Nursing Students Online Learning
Published Feb 22, 2003
Got my excelsior packet. Sounds really good. Where do I find the book list for prereq courses such as Microbiology and A&P. Apparently have to be enrolled to get study guides.

Hey all!!
At Excelsior, do they require a clinical component for the RN-BSN program? Or is it just theory and management issues?

Clinical Performance in Nursing Examination (CPNE)
OR
Portfolio Assessment: The BSN student may choose to develop a portfolio in lieu of the CPNE. The portfolio should chronicle your academic, professional, and clinical experiences. The portfolio requires EXCELLENT written communication that demonstrates prior clinical and professional exerience.
THESE are REQUIRED for the BSN student:

As the person mentioned before, you can download the study guides in pdf format from the Excelsior website. A list of books and recommended reading is in the study guide. Also if you go to their online bookstore you can look up the books as well. What I do is shop around using the book number I go to like bn.com ebay.com and ecampus.comHope this helps.Ed
Hope this helps.

Ed, do you know if any of these excelsior study guides are on audiotape, especially the PRPE which I'll be taking soon?
