    I'm starting both today as

  2. Excelsior transition exam

    Medic625 replied to gatormedic24's topic in Excelsior College

    I have used TCN modules for all the tests and have passed all of them with A's and B's in less than 2 weeks per test. Their study guides are spot on. They are expensive

  3. Question about Excelsior

    Medic625 replied to Philly_LPN_Girl's topic in Excelsior College

    Your best bet is to call an Excelsior nursing advisor. If you go to Excelsior.edu you can find the phone number. Calling them directly is probably better than someone guessing. In my experience, their...

  4. Lifespan 3

    Medic625 replied to Mrs.Mc,LPN217's topic in Excelsior College

    I am also studying for this one. I test on the 20th. So far, it seems like a review of the other tests. I am using the TCN module. Good

  5. Health Differences?

    Medic625 replied to natnat122's topic in Excelsior College

    I found that to be the hardest test I've taken yet. I used the TCN module and the EC practice exam to prepare for it. As a paramedic, I thought I had a firm grasp on the whole acid-base balance and...

  6. From Never Having Taken A College Class in June to FCCA Bound!

    Medic625 replied to CLUVRN's topic in Excelsior College

    That's incredible! I also started the program mid-June. I've completed all my prereq's (except the info lit course) and 5 of the 8 nursing classes. I'm working on the LS ones now. I felt like I was...

    Medic625 replied to jlynn167's topic in Excelsior College

    You always get two sheets of paper from them. Open it and see how you

  8. HERE I GO..AHHH...r/o

    Medic625 replied to jlynn167's topic in Excelsior College

    Well I passed chronicity with an A somehow. I thought the pearsonvue lady gave me the wrong results. Jlynn and curiy, how did you two make out with your

  9. HERE I GO..AHHH...r/o

    Medic625 replied to jlynn167's topic in Excelsior College

    Relax. Your practice exam scores were good. Get there 30 mins early with a valid photo id and you're good. Good luck! I'm taking chronicity tomorrow, so I feel your pain about the

  10. A few questions...

    Medic625 replied to jlynn167's topic in Excelsior College

    For transitions, make sure you know the theories. No dates, so don't worry about those. And I think that health differences has been the most difficult test so far. I only give myself two weeks for...

  11. Health Safety and Transitions

    Medic625 replied to silv27star's topic in Excelsior College

    I was "suckered" into tcn by a tcn salesman. I didn't do much, if any, research about other options, such as buying the textbooks recommended by Excelsior. I spent about $5k with tcn which included...

  12. Health Safety and Transitions

    Medic625 replied to silv27star's topic in Excelsior College

    I've used tcn modules to pass all my prerequisites and 3 of the nursing theory courses. They are very thorough. Also, the excelsior practice exams have helped me prepare for their

  13. V-fib refractory to an initial/second shock

    Medic625 replied to queenjulie's topic in Cardiac

    It means that the v- fib is being stubborn and has not converted with the shocks. It does not mean that the pt was thrown into v-fib by a defib. Another example would be continued SVT refractory to 6...

  14. I passed Health safety

    Medic625 replied to yroxyou's topic in Excelsior College

    I just took health safety this week and got an A after studying for about 2 weeks. The sg101 was spot on for this test. I also used the tcn module but I found that the sg101 material was a little...

  15. Course vs Exam

    Medic625 replied to silv27star's topic in Excelsior College

    I used the tcn module and study group 101 to study for the exam. For me, the key was making about 500 flash cards. It's a ton to memorize, but for that test memorization was super important. I would...

  16. Excelsior College Paramedic to RN Bridging Program

    Medic625 replied to ncredhed's topic in Excelsior College

    I am also using TCN. Did you use anything else or just that

  17. Study Plan calendar based on Excelsior's ECG

    Medic625 replied to smir953328's topic in Excelsior College

    I've found that two weeks has been plenty of time to study for the EC tests. I don't have kids and I only work at the FD two 24 hr shifts per week (most of which i can study during). I'm also only...
