  1. Happy birthday Erin P GN!

    Thanks!!! So glad I don't have to PM you about NC's anymore. Holy cow is it ever confusing to get started with that program!! When are you going to start working for Excelsior?
  2. EC RN-BSN? Yes or no?

    Where I'm at in Michigan, a good portion of the jobs post for BSN's. On the other side of things, we would like to start a family and when I went to get the Inderal for the CPNE, the doctor told me...
  3. EC RN-BSN? Yes or no?

    Nope!! But my program just wants an official transcript.. I'm anxiously waiting for it to be updated. I don't even know if it'll work out. I may wait until winter. I know I have a few general...
  4. EC RN-BSN? Yes or no?

    Yeah, on the way home from Wisconsin we were so excited because we wouldn't have to dump money on tuition or supplies anymore. I didn't feel like it was a good time to tell him I had already applied...
  5. EC RN-BSN? Yes or no?

    Money is a factor here too!! Why am I even thinking about this already? ha! No, I'm going to a state university RN-BSN online. I can go accelerated full time - 1 year or I can go part-time for 2. I...

  7. Thanks everyone! I woke up this morning still on edge! My heart started racing thinking I had to be somewhere. I ended up lying back down and just got up!! It's almost 9am! Holy
  8. Thanks!! My journal is already at 5 pages! I feel like it's pretty consistent with how my documentation was at the CPNE. Thank god I'll have time to edit
  9. Excelsior Grad - Passed NCLEX

    Where are you in Michigan?? I feel like I'm the only one here going through Excelsior! Taking CPNE this weekend - scared out of my
  10. Can't believe it!!

    Meg - I wouldn't worry about the NPAC at all!! Everyone is posting wonderful things! Majority of groups and often entire groups are passing at sites each weekend. A lot of the faculty that answers...
  11. Registered for FCCA!!!

    I don't know anything about the FCCA! Finished right before the deadline! Good luck!! I hope to be the first to welcome you to crazyland when you start with the CPNE
  12. I do half twists!! http://www.youtube.com/user/edowns88?feature=mhw4#p/a/u/0/HXrjhdlffpk Sometimes I struggle with getting the plunger to move in the beginning! I am praying for non-stick
  13. First exam tomorrow..advice?

    Once you pass that first test, it's all down hill!! You'll be so motivated to knock out tests once you're done!! My only advice is that you READ every single word of the questions and answers. I used...
  14. YAY!!!!!

    Good job!! Start getting yourself
  15. This is funny! I finally got the 2 ml's in 2 minutes, but can't do 2 ml in 1 minute. I go too slow!! And I think it's TOO SLOW to be
  16. Ok, my test date is rapidly approaching and in the last week I've read terrible things about my CPNE site - Racine! I'm trying to stay focused on the positives! However, I am SCARED out of my mind!!...
  17. Someone tell me to stop.....

    Thanks for the support!! I do know the critical elements! I keep telling myself they can't fail me if I perform the critical elements correctly and on time. I wish I had more confidence in the labs....
  18. Someone tell me to stop.....

    Thank you both for the reality checks!! I felt the need to vent somewhere else other than the EPN. I really appreciate it! I took a few hours off yesterday (fell asleep during the USA-Canada hockey...
  19. CPNE in Janesville, Wisconsin

    They need a lesson from 'allnurses.com!' The online workshops were a LITTLE better. They had a 'my posts' button and any replies that I had gotten. Still in poor format! Faculty BARELY responds to...
  20. Feeling overwhelmed today.

    What makes me jealous is people like that will find some way to pass. I know that's mean of me to say, but it's frustrating to hear of people who have studied for months and not get through this exam....
  21. CPNE in Janesville, Wisconsin

    Sorry! This post made me laugh! The EPN is so overdue for a complete over-haul in how they manage their forums. A search feature would be good enough for me! Or even a 'my posts'
  22. CPNE study guide

    I had mine printed up at a local print shop for about $12. I wasn't thinking and went with spiral bound. Definitely wish I would've done 3 hole punch. I've managed with the spiral, but it's looking a...
  23. Feeling overwhelmed today.

    Lisa - You'll be fine. I just got my mnemonics down and I don't even want to say when my test date is because it's so darn close! I wish I wouldn't have even announced it - anywhere! What I realized...
