  1. Study Group 101 for ECE A&P

    BrillyD replied to determined2banurse's topic in Excelsior College

    I've used them for all my exams so far - very helpful IMHO. Also the practice exams and content guide from the college. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be more physio than structural. Good...

  2. Prereqs

    BrillyD replied to brown eyed girl's topic in Excelsior College

    But - you may want to check out clep courses for some of the pre-reqs, they are

  3. Prereqs

    BrillyD replied to brown eyed girl's topic in Excelsior College

    Nope - only for the nursing theory

  4. Finally am an Excelsior LPN to RN student!

    BrillyD replied to QTpie1997's topic in Excelsior College

    It seems to me that if you can motivate yourself, direct your own study and pass these exams all on your own, that we'd get more respect than some of the 'nurses' I've met who come strait out of a...

  8. Excelsior Students how are you preparing resumes??

    BrillyD replied to RNFinally12's topic in Excelsior College

    I would think, as a new RN, you can't really list any clinical experience in that capacity - list any previous experience you had though as well as previous licenses &

  10. Why am I such a failure!!

    BrillyD replied to sondon's topic in Excelsior College

    Sorry you didn't pass, but if you were using SG101 their instructions tell you to go by the content guide so you know what all the areas cover. Just shake it off and go on - I think the first exam is...

  11. How long??????

    BrillyD replied to keishar's topic in Excelsior College

    You can go to the excelsior.edu website and download the nursing catalog. It has a fee schedule and curriculum and all the info you need. They are pretty easy with transfer credits, you can estimate...

  12. Interested in Excelsior...

    BrillyD replied to adorris's topic in Excelsior College

    Suggestion - If you know you will need a few pre-requisite courses by going over the catalog, try a CLEP or DSST exam. This will kindof give you the idea of self-study and stuff and if you don't pass...

  14. Excelsior College credit by examination transfer

    BrillyD replied to corpsman2210's topic in Excelsior College

    As far as I can figure, none of the individual courses will transfer to any of the schools I've checked with so far. BUT, you do receive a certain number of standard credits for your RN license (50...

  22. APA format generators...What do you recommend?

  25. Health Safety....

    BrillyD replied to natnat122's topic in Excelsior College
