  1. FCCA INFO for EC?

    If any of you get the same date/place as me, I'd love to share notes, or maybe even split the cost of a hotel/room with
  2. FCCA INFO for EC?

    Holy wow!! Two weeks? That's awesome. That means my hope for a date in October is actually reasonable to hope
  3. What's next?

    I ordered the CPNE flashcards and audio cd today, and as soon as I get the study guide I plan to print that off at Kinko's and have it bound so I can carry it with me. I now have 45 minute drive to...
  4. What's next?

    Looks like we'll be at the same site together at the same time, because I signed up for the NPAC too! I am hoping to be able to go to Queens. I know where that hospital is, I am familiar with the...
  5. What's next?

    Alrighty then. I have called and scheduled the FCCA. They are sending that out, still in paper form, this next week. I also, have officially filled out the CPNE application. I think I am going to be...
  6. It looks like it's half online and half on a dvd of some sorts. I am still researching it.
  7. I was so happy I screamed at the test center! I am officially DONE with the nursing exams. FCCA and CPNE bound!!!!
  8. What's next?

    Thanks for the info. I'll call tomorrow and set up the FCCA. I have all the info that I need ready to go to submit my app; just waiting now until it says I am eligible. No workshops for me. I can't...
  9. No, I can't afford it. We are going to be pretty strapped coming up with the CPNE fee and hotel and food for that weekend. I plan to do the Rob's CPNE program
  10. What's next?

    I am actually on the Excelsior college payment plan, so I do not have to pay for it. I called today, but they weren't really informative. That's why I thought I'd ask
  11. Just under a year.
  12. I am taking HD3, again, on Wednesday. Because I failed it last time d/t a panic attack, I am having a really hard time right now. As the day gets closer, I am having stomach cramps with other...
  13. Another nurse bites the dust due to facebook

    I am going to play devil's advocate here; I think that if she can find a lawyer, she can probably get her job back. Here's why: It is said that she wrote that she came face to face with a cop killer...
  14. Are there any Michigan EC student here?

    Howdy! I'm from the West Michigan area, and am taking HD3 (my last nursing exam) in about 3 weeks. How are
  15. I went and took Micro today and passed. I swear some of those questions I never had even heard about before, but this gal PASSED. I take HD3 (again!) in 3 weeks (and I WILL PASS!) and then A&P...
  16. Coworker quit/fired! Should we know what happened or not?

    Theoretically speaking, couldn't someone find a good lawyer and sue the tar out of the previous employer for doing something like this? I mean we're talking about all sorts of confidentiality laws,...
  17. National RN license vs State issued licensed

    I agree. If we all have to take the same standardized tests, then they should count nationwide. I also think that their needs to be a national standard of nursing schools so that if you are eligible...
  18. Coworker quit/fired! Should we know what happened or not?

    No, and thank GOD for at-will employment which gives the employer AND the employee the right to quit/leave/terminate without

    Here's what their website says: Three computer-delivered simulated clinical assessments will provide a mechanism for students to demonstrate competencies related to the use of the nursing...
  20. Excelsior Students- how did you pay for it?

    I used their payment plan, but I don't think that they offer that anymore. You basically pay $130 a month and all of your test fees and everything are included in with that in a year's

  22. FCCA INFO for EC?

    Excelsior's site has a whole list about what the FCCA is. I'll see if I can find it and post it here. It's basically, from what I can tell, a scenario that has you prove that you can multi-task,...

  24. I have good news-passed Micro!

    I used so many things to study. I used TCN, Lisa Arends, Clinical Microbiology made incredibly easy, Microbiology Demystified, and a workbook for
  25. Lawsuit Against The College Network

    I strongly recommend filing a complaint with the Attorney General's office. My girlfriend did that and she was able to get some resolution to her complaint against
