Passed A&P 2! Now onto Transitions... any tips??

Nursing Students Excelsior

Published

Yay passed A&P 2 through Straighterline. I'm doing transitions now and I acquired the recommended text book (from the content outline).. How did you all study for the Transitions to the Registered Professional Nurse Role exam? I also registered for the practice exams and took one already and am planning to study the questions and answers.. Any tips would be helpful.

Can you do Microbiology with Straighterline? If so how much are the classes? I need Microbiology and a Humanities class...

Hi GiftedNurse,

I did Microbiology through Excelsior which I think may be the only option because neither CLEP or Straighterline doesn't offers Microbiology..

That's what I LOVE about self paced learning!! I work 3 12 hour night shifts and sleep all day... never any time during my 'work week' to do any studying. On my 4 days off, though, I can really devote a lot of time to studying. I took a Math class through ALEKS, and finished it in a week... but I spent 30-32 hours on it! Better than 16 weeks in a classroom, twice a week, for an hour each

Now... I just need to get STARTED!! :)

Exactly!! :D

Giftednurse,

It's 99 bucks a month plus 30 bucks per course but I found a coupon code online where you can get your first course free.. Google it and it should come up :)

Are you talking about sg101? I bought it and am using it, it seems worth it so far.. It's only 10 dollars and it comes with alot of notes and practice tests.. Im taking a practice test now lol..
