So the study guide for info literacy offered by Tor is enough to get through the course & take exam at the end through them, without needing a book?

I like SG 101. I use the materials to study on the go so I don't have to carry books. I still supplement my studying by using text books (med surg & ATI) I used in school before. I love all of the practice questions, with rationale provided. I took health safety exam in December and passed with a B. I'm currently studying for Fundamentals & I see there were some changes in the study guide. When I looked at it, it looks like a few things have been added.

I'm waiting for approval from Excelsior now to take info literacy through Tor. $490 is way too much for a 1 credit hour class. I'm glad I found out about Tor on here.

Thanks for the info!!!

I did my CNA program in May/June of this year for $600. It is a 5 week program @ Samland Institute by 100th/Western. It include books & gait belt. You have to get your own scrubs & get your medical exam. Lala bee is correct, there is a $200 down payment & pay the rest as you go before the end of the class. It is a nice program, you learn a lot in a fast period of time. I would recommend it, good luck!!

I to have a degree, but am going into nursing as a career change. I will start with LPN, then go into RN right after. I will rest a bit & work with RN before decided whether or not to go further. I had also thought about going into the teaching aspect of nursing. I am glad to be learning a new field, but school can be draining, lol.

Correction--Glad to "hear"

Thanks for the info on PCCTI, I was going to look into that school about a month ago. I decided against it since I had already gotten started with getting preliminary things done with NorthWestern. I am pushing to start with their October class. Glad to here Americare wasn't bad, I had not heard of that school.

I am currently working towards getting into this school. I went to the wia meeting but have not been called yet as there is a waiting list. I also was told about the scholarship but will have to wait until next year to apply for it. I love the fact there is no waiting list and the school has a very high success rate of students completing the program & passing the state exam.

You can transfer A&P 1&2, medical term, math, english, psychology & computers if they are within a 5 yr period. If they are not within that period, you can opt to test out of them as long as you've had the class before. If you need to take the class, they offer them at the school (A&P is a part of their actual nursing program). The one thing I like about the school is their classes are for 6 weeks & computer is only 4 weeks. So, you get in & get it done without having to go 16 weeks as with other schools. I hope this helps.
