A long time ago when NCLEX was done on paper you would recieve a score, and some pepole would hire based on your score.The test now is set up so differently. Leo2

Hello,I used TCN study materials I didn't have have any problems,passed every test the first time.I finished EC and passed NCLEX first time. You will find people on here that don't like TCN ,because you can buy thier stuff on Ebay,but you do what works for you and don't worry about what anyone else says.Leo2:)

I called the board, they were very helpful, very picky but helpful.They wanted to know exactly what my LPN clinicals were had to come directly from the school,and the hospital I had worked at had to verify #of hours worked. They want to make sure you had clinicals in peds, Ob, psych. Leo2

I'am an EC grad from Ga. I took boards for Ga. I didn't need to do preceptor hours because I was enrolled before July 2008 but I had to provide proof of acute care exp. they even wanted to know about my LPN program and I was an LPN 24 years. You may be able to skip the preceptor hours but they will ask for details. Leo2

There is hope I got my Lic. in Jan. 2010 applied online no calls,so I called the recruiters where i applied.first one shot me down ,but one ask me to come talk to her. She set me up for interviews,I got a call 2 hrs after my 1st. one with a job offer on Ortho unit. iam so excited. Leo2

Yes I passed , now to find a job? Leo2

Congratulations feels great doesn't? Leo2

I was enrolled before July 1st.2008 I had to have my previous hours worked in a hospital varified by the hospital plus they checked my LPN program to see if it met the clinical requirement they wanted. It's been a long road!! Leo2

Hey everyone- EC grad and now a Georgia RN. I got an email today letting me know my Lic. was on the way:yeah::yeah::yeah:Leo2

Yes,you pay them to help you,you then pay EC to take the test,you will have to enroll in EC to take the nursing exams and actually get the collage credits.You can do LPN to BSN thru. university of Pheonix.You can get study materials any where use EC study guide for each exam it will give you an outline of what to study.

No that one had taken at my local CC. years ago when I tried to go the trad. route. You can get a course outline for all of EC exams.I took everything else thru. them,not sure if its essay or not? good luck

They help you prepare for test,you would have to enroll in Excelsior College to take the test and get your credit and earn your degree.

No I would study 2-3 months for each one. I wish I was that smart. Leo2

I went thru. Excelsior I took all my gen. ed. thru them but you can do them at your local cc. then transfer your credits.I did one course at a time but do as many as you can handle you will get done faster. make sure your state BON will accept them some states won't. I spent 2-3 months on mine because I didn't want to repeat it is alot of money.I did all the gen. ed. first then the nursing. good luck Leo2 :)

I took RN NCLEX

I used examcram,kaplan, Leo2

:up:I passed NCLEX Leo2

240? That was the really scary part. about 2hrs 30 min. Leo2

:uhoh3:I took the nclex today it was hard I had a lot of delegation ,sata, priority,some drugs I had never heard of. I will hold my breath for two days and see if I passed. Good luck to those who are next. Leo2

way to go :yeah:What state did you take boards for? I'am EC grad in Ga. will take mine in Dec. Leo2

I put down paper towel and laid my paperwork on that. I didn't use a grid it only confused me, you must be very careful about getting everything done on the documentation part they will look closley to make sure you covered all critical elements, in sims lab you must know your steps, control your nerves I had to do this thing twice I couldn't have done it again best of luck Leo2

yes I'am I just passed CPNE waiting for grad date then nclex Leo2

A long long time this was my second time. It was basic stuff just the way the study guide is.nerves did me in the first time,I now feel very sorry for every animal that is trained and made to perform. Leo2

Hi everyone I just had to tell all of you OH MY GOD I PASSED CPNE TODAY!!!!!! Thanks for all your support ,I'am so glad its over Leo2

Hi I got that notice also ,its looking better for EC students .Thanks to Gov. Purdue Leo2
