  1. EC-Life Span One

    mystic2fire posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    Took three days to do the reading. Broke it up, day one was Cardio, day two was Resp, day three was abn cell. Stayed with the outline for all of it. I do have a disc from mystudygroup101 but was too...

  2. EC-Life Span One

    mystic2fire replied to mystic2fire's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I'll probably order the stuff from the Robscpne. Been trolling that site a couple of times now. I don't really want to go travel anywhere for a practice, would rather do it all at

  3. EC-Life Span One

    mystic2fire replied to mystic2fire's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Yes. No open dates with my schedule to move up #2 so it's 2 wks to that test and then a week later I'm doing LS 3. I'm hoping to get the ball rolling on the FCCA in

  4. Just sick...

    mystic2fire replied to vamedic4's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I'm crying for you as well! Ugh. I forgot that I ordered a test and found the ATT a week after it expired. Just gotta say "Oh well, **** it, can't do anything about it now so might as well go online...

  5. Excelsior Students- how often do you test?

    mystic2fire replied to 84ashley's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Rate now July is a busy month for me-doing all three life spans. Get em over with

  6. Hitting A Brick Wall With Exams

    mystic2fire replied to 2brn09's topic in Online Distance Learning

    All I have left is the three LS's left as well. One test is on Fri for me, then the rest are all one week apart. Break it up into the sections, don't let the negative bug ("I can't do this, this is...

  7. Who will care for the patients?

    mystic2fire replied to tarapom's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    I have had a gazillion times better work conditions / treatment by management as a "scab" worker than when I have been in a (useless)

  8. Who will care for the patients?

    mystic2fire replied to tarapom's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    Careful how harmful your words can be. Before you dog all agency nurses as "scabs", maybe you should consider the patients that us "scabs" take care of in their private homes, as most of these clients...

  9. exam sequence?

    mystic2fire replied to BostonNurse2876's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Test sequence? Mine were all random shots in the dark depending on what I felt like studying at the time. I've been doing a CLEP every 2-3 weeks. Wanna get 'em all done

  10. the college network

    mystic2fire replied to kappykatlpn's topic in Online Distance Learning

    That is sad. Doing all of this the way we do is very intimidating. The best advice I seen on here (can't remember what post / thread it was) was telling newbies to do the practice tests with EC and do...

  11. Passed Life Span 1!!!!!

    mystic2fire replied to BeachCathyRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

  12. Excelsior Essentials-Reproductive Test

    mystic2fire replied to mystic2fire's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I don't know. Considering I've been on the "Ten Year Plan" to finish off the RN, the whole when do I graduate really don't matter to me. I do believe there is a link on EC about when what is due in...

  13. Excelsior Essentials-Reproductive Test

    mystic2fire posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    Of all tests to fret over this was the one for me. No experience at all in this area. The test was a breeze! I waaaay over-studied for it! Yay! I used Excelsior's study guide and looked up the stuff...

  14. Excelsior Essentials-Reproductive Test

    mystic2fire replied to mystic2fire's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I've dabbled a bit looking on the posts about the CPNE on here, but for the most part I have been ignoring that part. I figure I don't need to start worrying about that until I am done with these last...

  15. Excelsior Essentials-Reproductive Test

    mystic2fire replied to mystic2fire's topic in Online Distance Learning

    In between my readings I am a Farmville addict ;-) It sure helps! All that repetitive mindless clicking makes a great break

  16. Excelsior Essentials-Reproductive Test

    mystic2fire replied to mystic2fire's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I'm nuts ;-) I paid for all the tests and scheduled them two weeks apart to keep me on track, or I'm sure I'd put it off for several months, like I did for Chronicity! I printed out the study guides...

  17. Excelsior Essentials-Reproductive Test

    mystic2fire replied to mystic2fire's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Repro had me the most scared-I have no kids, never worked with kids nor have I ever babysat in my life-so needless to say if I can pass it, anyone can ;-) Transitions was a breeze as well. Did that...

  18. Need help with LVN or RT

    mystic2fire replied to gpjunior's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    RT's aren't all about death. Hospitals up here (in MN) have the RT's come up to the floors and do all the resp stuff-nebs, set up supplies / vents. More of a maintenance program people. I don't know...

  19. BSBA graduate going into ADN program/Volunteer Advice

    mystic2fire replied to mtdx7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This day and age, any other type of degree / job training puts you on top the the list for hires. It's called diversity-to have not only a nursing degree, but other degrees as well. With a business...

  20. question!

    mystic2fire replied to vccorscc's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Be aware when you take the rebate check (or whatever you want to call it) for loans-it has to be paid back. Think

  22. From dreams to reality... Help!

    mystic2fire replied to deckles12's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    CNA route makes a huge difference. As a nurse who has "ducklings" (aka nursing students) from time to time, I can definitely tell a huge difference, I can tell who has been an aide and who hasn't...

  23. Tips for coping with Test Anxiety

    mystic2fire replied to my4helpers's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Taking tests is more of a mind game than anything. You have to play the game-don't cram ten minutes before the test, if ya don't know the info by now you are NOT going to learn it ten min before a...

  24. Should I be confident?

    mystic2fire replied to faithshaker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Go for it! It's a waste of life to not chase your dreams now only to live with the regret of shoulda-coulda-wish I
