  1. Passed Repro today!

    BeachieRN84 replied to BeachieRN84's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I used the Old's text, the Wong's text, the Saunders, the Excelsior practice tests and SG101. It definately was not as complicated as I was making it out to be. I'm glad it's over though

  2. SG101 practice tests

    BeachieRN84 replied to savagetrojan's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Yes, some of them are very similiar, because the Excelsior exams are NCLEX style. I have even been lucky enough to have an arrange in order and fill in the blank question on my Excelsior exams. You...

  3. SG101 practice tests

    BeachieRN84 replied to savagetrojan's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Be careful w/SG101 practice tests. While they are helpful to do extra questions, if you are looking at the question and select and answer and you are sure you're right... and see that the answer key...

  4. Passed LS1 c B!! OMG!!

    BeachieRN84 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I thought LS1 was easier than LS3 personally.... but to me, both of these exams were easier than Transitions and Chronicity. I skipped around alll over the place LOL. I took those two exams first...

  5. Passed LS1 c B!! OMG!!

    BeachieRN84 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I have mine scheduled for April 12th... I haven't really started studying yet though, just skimming... I have Repro tomorrow afternoon, and then after that I will be in LS2 mode... it's my last one...

  6. Passed LS1 c B!! OMG!!

    BeachieRN84 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I would love to have a virtual study group... I think there are atleast 6 of us on here!

  7. Chronicity help please

    BeachieRN84 replied to bdlohmier2's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I use Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN, I have the 3rd edition (I think it's like 2005). Got it on Ebay for like $30, worth every stinkin penny

  8. Passed LS1 c B!! OMG!!

    BeachieRN84 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Way to go!!! That is the best feeling when you get the paper out of the printer with a good grade on it

  9. LS 2.....so much non related material??

    BeachieRN84 replied to k9kabs's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Thanks for that Mage! That is probably the first reassuring post about LS2 I have seen. Will definately be using my Saunders.

  10. LS 2.....so much non related material??

    BeachieRN84 replied to k9kabs's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I saved this one for last and the thought of the mix of endocrine and psych makes me feel kind of like I want to barf LOL. I haven't really even started on it yet... will take practice test A after I...

  11. Excelsior approved CLEP 3 cr humanities, which one?

    BeachieRN84 replied to LoopsRN2's topic in Excelsior College

    The reason why I paid a proctor fee is because my local community college won't let you CLEP for free unless you are a student there. I just went on the CLEP website and checked what colleges offered...

  12. Chronicity help please

    BeachieRN84 replied to bdlohmier2's topic in Online Distance Learning

    To be honest w/you, for this test I felt like SG101 fell way off track. I definately found that using the required texts and content outline was a must for this. There was 160 questions.... tooo...

  13. Excelsior approved CLEP 3 cr humanities, which one?

    BeachieRN84 replied to LoopsRN2's topic in Excelsior College

    Analyzing and Interpreting Lit. I always recommend this one. It is 6 credits and I thought it was really simple, all reading comp. I paid $77 plus a $25 proctor

  14. Excelsior ADN and Straighterline

    BeachieRN84 replied to BeachieRN84's topic in Excelsior College

    Kel, so Excelsior will approve A&P with Lab on Straighterline? I am really thinking about doing this since Commuter said it is all self paced and open book. I am thinking of signing up after I...

  15. Lisa arends too much info?

    BeachieRN84 replied to Pixiedust0305's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Yay for Saunders, I am such a fan too! I seriously don't leave my house without my Saunders LOL :-) I used Lisa A. notes for Transitions and have not bought them since. I really like SG101 better,...

  16. Repro Exam

    BeachieRN84 replied to BLAKEY2005's topic in Online Distance Learning

    @Blakey, I am pushing it this month... I took Chronicity and LS1 this month also. I have taken about 10 days to prepare. Good luck to you also!!! Check out flashcardexchange, lots of good info on...

  17. Got an A on LS1 this afternoon :-)

    BeachieRN84 posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    Totally stoked-- got an A on LS1 just now!! Wow am I glad that one's over. What a tough exam! Only two more nursing exams left, Repro on 3/29 and LS2 sometime in April!!!

  18. LS1

    BeachieRN84 replied to Tmckenzie80's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Oh, Loops the AHA is changing the core of Basic Life Support in June.... I just renewed my ACLS and my instructors said that come June they are changing the principle of BLS from Airway, Breathing...

  19. Chronicity

    BeachieRN84 replied to WestPalmLPN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I am glad we met too, I can't believe you were in the same hospital as me this whole time and I never knew it! I lost my SG101 CD, I am going to have to tear my house apart soon to find it for LS2...

  20. Repro Exam

    BeachieRN84 replied to BLAKEY2005's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I am worried about this test. I got a 72 and a 78 on the practice exams but I really don't feel like I have a good hold on it. I am using SG101, flashcard exchange, Saunders, the Olds Maternity...

  21. LS1

    BeachieRN84 replied to Tmckenzie80's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I used the Med/Surg text for this one as well as the Saunders to review. To be honest w/you, I was the most worried about the abnormal cell section also, but I thought the cancer section was the...

  22. Chronicity

    BeachieRN84 replied to WestPalmLPN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I want to get on LS2 as soon as I pass Repro next week! I am thinking April 12 I will take it. Maybe we can get together one night before that, I have off every weeknight and every other Sunday :-) I...

  23. LS3

    BeachieRN84 replied to CRudlerRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I always do the practice exams, I definately think they are really helpful, worth every penny

  24. LS3

    BeachieRN84 replied to CRudlerRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Neuro, neuro and more neuro! I found this exam to be very detailed and assessment oriented. Lots of medications and lots of pediatric considerations. I used primarily Saunders and the textbook to...

  25. Chronicity

    BeachieRN84 replied to WestPalmLPN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I knew you would girlfriend! TWO MORE!!!
