MissingMyErica

To all the self righteous "nurses" out there who have nothing better to do but make this girl feel worse about herself, all I can say is...."Karma is a *****". Remember the old saying about stones and glass houses? Are you people really that amazin...

So I passed my CPNE on 3/25 and the only thing I had left was a&p 2, since I took a&p 1 at my community college with lab. Since Excelsior doesn't require the lab, I took the a&p without lab option. It took me 4 days to complete and let ...

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!! :yeah::yeah::yeah::yeah::yeah::yeah:

We're all with you! You can do this!

Just saw your post and I'm so sorry you have to go through this again. I can't imagine going through the CPNE pregnant...omg...you are so brave. Give yourself some time off and enjoy the rest of your pregnancy and sign up for the CPNE a few months ...

My 22 year old daughter "Erica" is in Japan and I miss her like crazy. p.s. she's in the NAVY.

I have gotten 2 jobs that way. My very first job was gotten through a phone call to the nurse manager of the unit I was interested in and the job I have now came from a phone call to the hospital DON. In this economy you HAVE to find creative ways ...

I just graduated on May 20, 2011. I enrolled May 2010, so it took me exactly a year to complete. I took all of my nursing exams in under 2 months but I was also completing my pre-reqs at my community college. I LOVED Excelsiors program and would h...

Do yourself a favor and don't take her class! I had the same experience with Chemistry and I thought to myself "how bad can he really be?" and it turned out he was just exactly how he was described on RMP. I busted my butt to pass the class because...

I myself have had to take my son to the ER for an earache when I didn't have the money to go to our primary care doctor. I was working as a nurse but getting called off all the time for low census and my husband had just started a new job after bein...

The York site was great, I passed with no repeats. I got the date I wanted.

I just took a business communication class and I think it's appropriate to email your resignation as long as you ALSO mail a formal letter of resignation. Communication has changed and many important business transactions are done via computer, time...

Okay, so it's taken me several weeks to get over my CPNE PTSD and finally write about my experience. Please don't discount the reality of the PTSD you may experience when you are done. I had nightmares and depression for 2 solid weeks after the tes...

You are so full of crap!

Thank you thank you thank you!

I got that message first and then a few hours later I got the "good" pop up. I checked my quick results 2 days later and I got a PASS. Still waiting for the Pa. BON to update their website so my job can verify my license! I took my test on June 1s...

I know, I know....I've seen this thread before, but I still have some questions. My main question is why most people who graduate from excelsior for their ASN, don't finish their BSN with them? I loved excelsior's ASN program, so I'm hoping to love...

I've been an LPN for 15 years and I just became an Excelsior RN last week. When I finally made the decision to go back it only took me a year to complete and I am so happy to finally have this done. For me, I try not to have regrets because as an L...

I studied for about 3 weeks after going to Sheri Taylor's workshop. ( I know I should have studied before but I'm a horrible procrastinator) When I got home I wrote out Rob's mneumonics (sp) on cards exactly the way he had them, pictures and all. ...

OMG....I swear I still don't fully believe it! I passed!! Officially an RN! I have to take a bath and relax and let it all sink in....amazing~!! Thank you all so much for the support and encouragement.:heartbeat:redbeathe

I took my CPNE on March 25th, Graduation date of May 20th, Nclex on June 1st. It felt like forever but it was actually only about two months. I live in Pennsylvania, I don't don't know how long it takes in other states. Good luck! I'm a timeline ...

Passed!! PV trick worked for me but I couldn't relax until I got my official results! When that computer shut off at 75 questions I thought I'd wet my pants!! I left there feeling so unsure of myself, but today I'm officially an RN!!! Yay!

I totally agree....don't over-think it. You KNOW this.

I enrolled in Excelsior in May 2010 and I took my boards on June 1, 2011. I'd be happy to talk to you, I'll send you my email. :)

There were alot of SATA questions on my test. I took mine on June 1st and I'm still waiting for official results. I got the "good" pop up but I'm too neurotic to believe it.
