  1. Cpne- 2mos plus 5-8month wait??

    LoopsRN2 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

  5. Complaintsboard.com ec reviews-- yikes!!

    LoopsRN2 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    One complaint that I read on the complaintboard.com was that "the other student passed probably because she looked like the CE's Aun't Matilda"......and any credibility I would have given to this...

    LoopsRN2 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I am doing Excelsior's workshop in Wisconsin because mainly, it is closest to me (I am in Minnesota) and also because the timing will be best (the workshop is mid july, and I am taking my last 2 exams...

    LoopsRN2 replied to BLAKEY2005's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Study the rationales from the questions you got both right and wrong, and I always review the required readings from the sections I did poorly in on the practice exams. Make sure you read through...

    LoopsRN2 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Where are you getting your IV supplies from? I am going to talk to the manager of our pre-op holding and see if she can hang on to any unused tubing, bags/bottles of saline, and I guess we have a...

  11. Complaintsboard.com ec reviews-- yikes!!

    LoopsRN2 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Great info! Last weekend only 1 out of 6 passed from the center I want to test at in WI. I am going to apply for MPAC & NPAC, and I think I am probably going to try for EC Workshop in WI for mid...

    LoopsRN2 replied to CRudlerRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    LoopsRN2 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Thanks for your input!! It is reassuring! May I ask how you prepared as far as workshops or

  14. Complaintsboard.com ec reviews-- yikes!!

    LoopsRN2 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I thought we were allowed 1 mistake or 2 (I have not reviewed the rules or regulations for CPNE yet) before failing, vs all or none? The fact there may be additional EC staff following is good to...

  15. Complaintsboard.com ec reviews-- yikes!!

    LoopsRN2 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Nursing students can fail exams and clinicals in brick and mortar schools as well. It would be very nice to see EC put forth a bit more preparation for the clinical rotation, as it seems to be the...

  17. Complaintsboard.com ec reviews-- yikes!!

    LoopsRN2 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    It wouldn't be a bad idea at all for a person to use it as a learning tool, as long as the info that is posted is indeed accurate. There is probably a lot that can be learned by reading those posts...

  18. Complaintsboard.com ec reviews-- yikes!!

    LoopsRN2 replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I have not seen that yet, but I have seen some very negative reviews even on the CPNE board at EC! Stay away from that site for now, and just come here

  21. Allnurses Annonymous

    LoopsRN2 replied to MsPC's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I couldn't agree more! I start and finish my day here and stop in many time in between, and in many ways it serves as my support group. This is a very challenging program. I don't remember nursing...
