Hello. I am not new to all that excelsior has to offer, however it has been a while since I’ve researched and I am now ready to take the leap. Is there a master list of what prerequisites I can test out of through Clep? Is it also true that now only 7 of your total credits can be through clep? What classes would you suggest I test out of first? Keep in mind I need all prerequisites. Thank you for your time

Just curious...any experiences good and bad tell me about it, I have looked at older posts as well

thank you for the analogy because it is very true!

Family who are nurses, and it has always been interesting to me.

Okay so long story short I have always loved nursing, but now that I am actually here doing it it is making me question if I made the right choice. I have no previous nursing experience whatsoever, I am having a hard time getting in the groove of things in clinicals. Everytime I leave in the morning for clinicals I am trying to find a way to get out of it. I am truly trying to push myself through this class, but these negative thoughts won't leave my mind. My clinical instructor is great, but my skills.....not so much, actually they are non existent. I just want to know if it is normal to feel like this (like I don't know anything, and not very confident) or if I should find a new profession and stop wasting my time in nursing school.....any insight would help!! Thank you! ****EDITED TO ADD: My clinical instructor told me that she can tell I am "shell shocked" but when she tells me to go complete a task "I can do it with no problem". Which i guess is a good sign but sha can also tell I am kind of lost in the sauce.
