    Hey Kim! I have a few friends that soared through the program in a matter of months, and they did VERY well on their exams. I myself, started off thinking I need 6 weeks per exam, but when I really...

    LoopsRN2 replied to OneFlyNurz's topic in Online Distance Learning

  7. First time passers of CPNE?

    LoopsRN2 replied to Mimi2bRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    It sure sounds like you found a study system that works for you, so that is all that matters in that department. As far as contacting Excelsior, what do you have to lose? The worst that they can...

  8. First time passers of CPNE?

    LoopsRN2 replied to Mimi2bRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Do a topic search on Rue--lots of very unhappy students there. They are a publishing company, nothing to do w/excelsior. Look instead to eBay, amazon and barnes & noble for all of your required...

    LoopsRN2 replied to NaeNay's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Oh, I was just referring to her comment about trying to get her RN by 2011, & meant it may not worth to rush LS3 to get to be eligible, because the wait is so long to get

  14. Can/ Should I get my wait time reduced for LS3

    LoopsRN2 replied to NaeNay's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Although I am sure some wait times are different, and it depends somewhat on where you may be testing, but here is an example of the wait: I took my last exam in June and had my application into...

    LoopsRN2 replied to CRudlerRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

  19. Don't know what's going on...

    LoopsRN2 replied to CRudlerRN's topic in Online Distance Learning
