First of all, who is ECPI? Have you tried Excelsior? They are great about accepting credits from almost anywhere. Even though I had taken my English Comp 1 & 2, History, Gov't, Sociology, Psyche, etc eons ago, they still accepted them. They are sticky about your A&P. The one you take for your LVN?LPN is a survey course and will not count toward the RN. I took that class also for my LVN, but had also taken the upper level course years ago (& before I had 5 more kids), but it expired. So I took A&P 1&2 along with Micro. I just hope I don't mess around too long and get stuck having to meet all sorts of new requirements, like the new math requirement. I want to be an RN before I become a GREAT-grandmother! Can you imagine applying for a job?? "And it took you this long because.....?"

I am currently enrolled in the Excelsior RN program. I can't see how anyone could possibly get through everything in 6 months unless they had NO life whatsoever, have the ability to learn and retain tons of information, be as wiz at taking tests, and have all prereques completed. Then you still have the big assessment thing and the clinicals to wait for and complete. Personally, I'm in Excelsior because I have too MUCH going on to be able to devote to full-time study. I'd love to get it done quickly, but I have to work. Furthermore, I work an insane amount of hours. I'm also paying for my school as I go so I don't have any extra debt once I get out. I like and need the flexibility of online school, but I tend to let life get in the way too much that I really wonder if I will ever get done.

How did you do on the NCLEX this time?

Hi, I just logged in for the first time (have been reading allnurses for a while though) & saw this post. I stopped & prayed for you. You can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens you!
