  1. cpne jitters?

    I did the same thing. Just put the CPNE out of your mind and knockout the theory. When CPNE times comes, everything will make more sense, you you'll be ready to take it
  2. Warning - excelsior students

    This ish is getting really old. Take the old saying "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.", unless YOU personally have had FIRST-HAND experience with Excelsior. I'm so...
  3. It depends on the school. Some schools will give you automatic credit for all the the lower level nursing classes, and lower level general eds just for being an RN, then you just do their upper level...
  4. FAILED IN SYRACUSE

    Could the refusal to give you a new steth esp after it left you bleeding be, grounds, for a free repeat? I mean if , you had been given another you wouldn't had to guess, could have passed that PCS,...
  5. It's CPNE time...Plano here I come.....

    I haven't been on AN much for months now, busy taking care of my new baby girl. But, I just had to stop and wish you luck. You'll do great. I'm blowing some GN dust your way
  6. EC grads and compact states

    This is the point that I made a long time ago. You are not obligated to contact the Virginia BON, at all. The way the compact is set up, at least in the model legislation, the license from your home...
  7. Exactly Lisa. This is something I pointed out long ago, and technically by the compact rules, you are qualified to practice in Maryland, which is good on the face. But, the bad side is this is one of...
  8. I doubt it. Just like most nursing schools they most likely won't let other nursing school credits transfer
  9. Gustav Roll Call

    From New Orleans, here. We are in Dallas, it looks like everything is okay, so if all goes well we will be back on Thursday. Thanks for all the concern. But one request please, stop calling evacuees...
  10. Gustav

    yeah, we're packing all of our important documents, and photos, and most of our clothes. My car has decided to misfire, so I'll be getting a rental tomorrow, and having the dealership tow the car...
  11. Now, I first want to say, that the change is GA law doesn't make it impossible for EC students now or in the future, it is the current BOARD RULES, that we should have an issue with. I don't want...
  12. Yeah, I was also wondering why her school of original licensure wasn't listed. And of course as we all know that "clinical experience after graduation, doesn't count". So, this should be
  13. Here are all of the committee's email addressed so ya'll won't have to go collect them too. [email protected],[email protected], [email protected], [email protected],...
  14. I just wanted to make this quick post, there are more things floating around in my head but I'll have to do more research. Anyway, it looks although our school is always at work for us, unbeknown to...
  15. Well see, Ive been looking at that an actually I think there is a loophole for Cali, VA however in their wording makes it difficult. Cali law states: "810 hours (in a variety of settings and various...
  16. Is it only a matter of time?

    What I will do, (and what I think we all should do), is throughout our careers keep a very detailed records of the clinical oriented positions that we hold, our "hours" in that position, and the...
  17. Big Fat Failure In Syracuse

    You'll be okay, even though I know that means nothing to you now, but you will be okay. Calm down, and take it easy. After you rest for a few days, analyze your mistakes, reorganize your thoughts,...
  18. We are thinking about moving, probably before I finish school, and before my Christmas baby is due, so if you can please answer the following questions as candidly as possible, I'd appreciate it. 1. I...
  19. Jobs after Excelsior

    Just to let you know, I think that you can ask for a reference from an instructor at EC. If I'm not mistaken there was a thread about it
  20. Excelsior BSN or MSN

    I am thinking about Chamberlain also, it is expensive, but for me SUNY Dehli would cost more, plus they have a mandatory tuition deferral basically, so that should help. Also what you see is what you...
  21. list of walk thru states

    Here is the link on Cross Country:
  22. Should be excited...just depressed.

    Wait, don't put the CPNE on hold! I so, fell for ya'll but think about ti like this we don't know what the GABONis going to decide, but while waiting them out you could take the CPNE, then NClex (for...
  23. Leaving Thursday For Syracuse

    I second that. Good
  24. It was obvious (I hope), that I wasn't speaking about the theoretical bureaucratic difference on paper. I am speaking of the real life difference that would make the July 2, 2008 nurses pose more...
