I just finished all my NC classes (all passed without and failures WAHOO!). I am getting ready to sign up for my CPNE, and I will likely have to fly to get there, because I want to take the CPNE ASAP. Is there any testing centers that I should avoid...

Im in CA, will PearsonVue tell me if I passed? I took the test the day before Thanksgiving, and Ive nervously waiting... Thanks!

Im in the same boat as you... I took the NCLEX in Cali last Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving. The test shut off at 75 questions, and now I check the BON website everyday. I figure that due to the holidays it is going to take a little longer ...

I have been an LVN in California for 3 years now and I have finally decided to take that step to an RN. I work on a Med -Surge floor and I feel that a transition to RN would be a good step for me now. I am in a hurry to enroll before December 5th be...

I have passed NC1 and NC2 easily, but the tests seem to be getting more progressively difficult. Can anyone recommend a source of practice tests for each NC exam (besides excelsiors tests)? Thanks!

I took the NC1 online practice test without studying and I got 71% of the answers correct. Is this enough to pass. I know EC does some type of adaptive scoring, but what is passing? Thanks! Jessica

I am sure glad I registered on Dec 1.....

Has anyone taken the EC lifespan test. I'm trying to figure out how to study. I would take forever to read the entire textbook and answer all the practice questions. Is all that really necessary? I got 75% of the practice questions right before ...

Thank you for your advise. I dont want to sound dumb, but how where would I find these Yahoo study groups? Thanks again! Jess

Heres what is posted at collegeboard.com. I heard from one person it was easy, and another that it was hard. By the title it doesnt look too hard at all. Its worth the extra effort because it counts as 2 classes, 6 Units! ________________ Analyzin...

http://www.rn.ca.gov/news/news.htm EXCELSIOR COLLEGE UPDATE At the Board Meeting on December 5, 2003, the Board took the following action: Approve the eligibility of Excelsior College graduates applying for licensure as an RN, providing they meet t...

I appreciate the information, but none of the sources listed tell what actually happened at the meeting, and if the BON agreed on the new requirements for Excelsior RNs. That is what I am looking for... but again- thanks for your time

Has anybody heard anything about what the CA Board of Nursing decided at yesterday's meeting regarding Excelsior college? Thanks! Jess

I am currently considering signing up with Excelsior to get my RN. I've been an LVN on the Med-Surge floor of a major hospital for 3 years now and I've decided to now get paid for what I already do anyways. My questions.... Besides pre-req's how man...

I'm trying to enroll at EC but I dont know whichn I should sign up for- the Associate in Applied Science (Nursing) or the Associate in Science (Nursing). What is the difference? Thanks!!!

I am an LVN in California and I am considering going back to get my RN. Has anybody here done this 30 unit option thing? It seems like a good thing- only 1 year of community college at a much lower cost than any other option I have seen. Plus I am...

Bill- I couldnt find your email address, so here is mine- [email protected] Thanks for your help

If this was decided on Oct 17- how come we are just hearing about it now? And how do these requirements compare to the requirements before this decision? As you can tell I am looming into getting my RN and Excelsior is an option... Thanks Jess

Yes I am.
