Hello folks. I recently passed the health safety exam. Didnt do as well as I wanted for my first core nursing class. I studied for 8 days and managed to get a "C" using the TCN module and the practices tests. Im now preparing for the transition to re...

Ok guys, Ive studied for about a week but there are limited oppurtunities to get into the testing center near me because I live in a college town. Ive read the material once and took the practice test and got a 62 on form A. Im gonna wing it and take...

Sounds good, ya I have been working on my care plans and started browsing through the 18th edition CPNE study guide. So how long did it take to receive a date after you applied and how far out was the date. I actually live in Florida but I applied fo...

I haven't taken it. I am currently using Robs CPNE prep and it has some carplan stuff on it. Im doing the FCCA at the end of the month and I have everything turned in for the CPNE and waiting on a date. Have you applied for the CPNE or got a date yet...

I was definitely studying 5+ hours a day. Studying my butt off for a week straight and then taking the exam. The benefit of doing it quickly like that is all of the info is fresh as opposed to studying for a month or more you start to forget the mate...

Which CLEP are you referring to? Im not aware of a CLEP for enlish comp. It either has to be the Excelsior exam or the Uxcel exam which is on excelsiors web page. I did the Uexcel which is 3 credits as opposed to the 6 for the Excelsior exam. I got a...

Repro Health wasnt to bad either. Definitely know the meds and vitamins, stages of labor, and disorders. I studied for less than a week and did fine.

Im taking LS1 this week as well. Anybody have any insite on how difficult this exam was compared to the others? Im trying to get it done by the end of this coming week. Good luck to all! Health Safety (8/31) "B", Transition to RN role (9/9) "B", Hea...

I started with Excelsior the beginning of this year and I used college network. I took A&P and micro this summer. Id have to say that these 2 exams have been the hardest. I have now completed just about all of my gen eds and 3 of the nursing seri...

Well went in and got a "B" this one wasnt to bad. So now ive completed Health Safety, Transition to registreed profressional nurse role, and essentials: Health differences. I took the first one on August 31st so thats 3 down in 25 days. I hope I can ...

I wasnt able to take it today. Unfortunately I held off on scheduling it yesterday becuase I noticed on pearson vue that they have a "test now" service was available for same day testing. There were plenty of spot available at the center an hour from...

Damn! 2 weeks is way to long haha. Well I paid the application fee and im gonna pay the increased enrollment fee of 975 bucks as soon as they allow me to. Appreciate your response. Have you taken health differences yet? Health Safety and Transition t...

Ok, I paid the application fee and sent in my transcripts and stuff. How long should it take to actually be enrolled? I dont want to get held back on this stuff. I waited because I didnt realize I was gonna finish the first 2 classes so quick and did...

Ok so I passed Health Safety in a week with a "C" and took Transition to the professional registered nurse role on Friday and got a "B" after studying for 8 days. If you're having doubts about transition just go ahead and take it. It was not difficul...

TS41- What did you think was a scam about it? The actualy college or were you unsure if you could actually get a degree doing distance learning? Im doing the Associate of science in nursing program. Im a full time proffesional Lieutenant Parmaedic an...

Ya it is alot of material but I think I will do better memorizing info better than I did with Psychological safety on the health safety test where it seems more like a subjective analysis of info. I plan on giving myself 2 weeks for this one. At this...

Awesome sounds good. Thanks for the replies. I will have to get that saunders nclex book. Ive heard good things about it. Im scheduled to take transitions on the 16th. Good luck to you!

mrstookielpn- Thanks for your encouragement. I went in there after running calls all night at work and managed to pull off a "B". I actually had 30 minutes left but thats only because I took some typing classes when I was younger. Glad to have that d...
