   QuenymamiRN replied to monalisa lpn's topic in Excelsior College

   Its really hard to keep your motivation up in the RN program at excelsior. I recently graduated this march and got my license this June. IMO the tests are really hard but they prepare you well for the...

   QuenymamiRN replied to kajh20's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   LPN can suction a stable patient but on the NCLEX likely not stable so don't pick that. LPNs can do sterile wound changes and unsterile wound dressing changes. Can't do 1st dressing change after...

    Try not to stress yourself out so much. The NCLEX really is not that bad. I studied 3-4 hrs a day with Kaplan, Saunders and I did practice questions on Facebook from Pedia and ATI. I also found some...

13. Comprehensive review books: Saunders, Mosbys

    QuenymamiRN replied to CaptScrubs13's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I used Saunders and Kaplan (the book, not the course). The questions did seem to be easy but I wouldn't say easier than NCLEX. To me the NCLEX seemed pretty straight forward and I feel that Saunders...
