thanks lunah- i will check it out... btw you are a pro here huh?!? lol

i don't think you need to use clep as if i remembered correctly from your previous posts, you said you all have the pre-requisites and just need the nursing exams plus info lit.

i am the same except for the "lifespan development". so i will use clep and take the "growth & development" exam.

yes lunah is a pro here! she's very helpful. actually everyone on this board are helpful :yeah:

how's your studying for transitions going diana? i finally started reading the cancer chapter(med-surg book) last night and made some notes. it is very overwhelming!!!! i thought i scheduled it in 3 weeks but checked the pearson website and i only have 2 weeks left to study. i should get back to studying....

i really think it is mostly memorizing for transitions... i need to try a practice exam on ec, but my husband keeps saying "already?"" not to mention on all exams i have printed and tried i am making 70s...ugh!! i am shooting to do the transitions test on november 2.

you bought the med surg books? you are right about my other postings though- no pre reqs just nsg courses left and of course info lit. again i am only using the larends and mostly the studyguide101 stuff. very helpful. i am sooo worried i may fail a test... thinking positive though!!

i really do like this site- so much info and support here! cancer is a beast... in many ways... so many types and kinds.

how in the world do you work and study enough to test in 2-3 weeks??? i must be doing something wrong!!

good luck on transitions!!

yeah, i bought the recommended med-surg book last year for less than 10 bucks (one edition old)! this is the first time i am using it for lifespan 1. i am not so proud of the way i studied for the previous nursing exams. that is why it showed on my grade. you get what you put into it, you know. but hey i am passing. but i think i really need to study for lifespan 1 in order to pass even with a c. yes i scheduled it in two weeks but if i am not ready, i will reschedule.

i am scared of failing an exam as well. but hey life won't stop so i just have to retake it if i do fail and make sure to pass it the next time. hopefully, not though. thank god we are on the package price option so if that happens, i won't have to pay any extra.
