    GCmomRN replied to GCmomRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

  4. Submitted CPNE documents, now what!

    GCmomRN replied to Erikadawn RN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Oh bummer! I left a message and am waiting for a call back. I bet that is what they will tell me too. Although as much as I want to get this over with, I secretly am hoping the date is farther away...

    GCmomRN replied to Erikadawn RN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Oh that's interesting! I don't think I'll be ready until the end of June though so I don't think I want the next available date, lol!! Erika, let us know what they say tomorrow. I also applied to NPAC...

  7. How long does it take to get fulling enrolled to Excelsior?

    GCmomRN replied to bsn2b2013's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I applied in late August and was enrolled in mid-Sept. It's not too bad, but they do have to evaluate all your credits so it takes a little time. In the meantime you can start studying for and take...

  8. Submitted CPNE documents, now what!

    GCmomRN replied to Erikadawn RN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    LOL, welcome to the wait!! My documents were all accepted on 3/15 and I haven't heard anything since. Did you take the FCCA? I just got word that I passed so I'm hoping that moves things along! What...

    GCmomRN posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    I haven't gotten a date yet, but I'm hoping to test in early July. I'm trying to get myself organized for studying for it and I'll have about 3 months. So for those who have taken the CPNE or are also...

    GCmomRN replied to achilleas's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Nope, I don't own a community based nursing book and just found out I passed FCCA. You should be fine with the

  11. CPNE study plan

    GCmomRN replied to GCmomRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Yeah I wish I could take a workshop now, but it's just too expensive and not convenient. I'm lucky I can afford the one workshop I'm going to take!! Thanks for all the

  12. Books For FCCA?

    GCmomRN replied to achilleas's topic in Online Distance Learning

    GCmomRN replied to achilleas's topic in Online Distance Learning

  15. How long did it take you to do the LPN to RN?

    GCmomRN replied to deemarys's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Wow, that's pretty amazing!!! I thought I was moving fast, LOL! How did you prepare for the CPNE in such a short amount of time? I'm nervous I won't be read in 3 months and I'll only be studying for...

  16. How long did it take you to do the LPN to RN?

    GCmomRN replied to deemarys's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I think 6 months is almost impossible. I finished all my nursing exams (8) in 6 months and I still have to take the CPNE which has a 4-6 month wait. I hope to be done with the program within a year...

    GCmomRN replied to Erikadawn RN's topic in Online Distance Learning

  22. Can't believe it!!

    GCmomRN replied to GCmomRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Thanks for the quick advice! And you're right, the best motivator for me is a deadline so I think I will say my ready date will be July 1 and hope for the best. On the list of NPAC sites Chambersburg...

  23. Opinions on Lisa Areneds interactive CD / notes-transitons

    GCmomRN replied to lsilva7's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I'm not a huge fan of the Lisa Arends notes. Just stick to the content guide, I used the internet a lot with this exam too because it's a lot of history so just punch a name into Wickipedia and you...

    GCmomRN replied to GCmomRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Thanks everyone!! princess1125- I will be taking the CPNE somewhere in the NPAC. Still haven't decided where yet or if I will pick any site. I'm leaning towards Utica or York just because I am used to...

  25. PASSED Transitions, now what?

    GCmomRN replied to BostonNurse2876's topic in Online Distance Learning

    CONGRATS!!!!! The first test was the hardest for me just because it was all new. Health safety was ok, probably a lot of review for you if you're an LPN. For me the easiest was HDLS-1 because I am an...
