  2. California Excelsior graduate after 2003, pls help!

    I dont understand? Is this how many hours California wsnts before applying for reciprocity. I was under the impression that they review excelsior applicants on a case by case
  3. Alrighty then.....

    You can start calling for cancellation dates whenever you feel prepared to take the exam. Currently it is very difficult to get a cancellation dste because some students who have been dragging their...
  4. I can only speak from personal experience but ive also read accounts where people have praised the SG101 and then others where they swear it was a waste of money. Honestly in the end it's 18 bucks for...
  5. I've heard past Excelsior grads that needed preceptor hours having good luck working in an underserved area. One girl i knew aaid she did her time in an urban hospital that was understaffed and...
  6. Hardest EC Exam

    This is a very subjective question because we all come from different backgrounds and specialty areas. I know many people struggled with the cardio and respiratory stuff where as being a Paramedic i...
  7. I didn't use it for the FCCA but others have said the SG101 isn't helpful. From personal experience I found the module exams and practice problems to be the most helpful. All of this is essentially...
  8. Foundations in the Nursing Practice Exam

    Start with the content guide provided by Excelsior and use it as a guide when reading through the textbook. As you progress through the chapters look at the content guide and ask yourself if you...
  9. If anyone is planning on using the Clep A & I exam to satisfy the Humanities requirement (which people should since it's an easy 6 credits) Be aware that as of 9/1/2016 you will only be granted 3...
  10. Important info about Humanities Gen Ed

    All outside coursework must be approved by an Excelsior advisor prior to. With that being said I really don't see a reason why not. Just be sure to take and PASS on or before
  11. Important info about Humanities Gen Ed

    This is only an Excelsior thing. The ACE recommendation is still 6 credits however each institution is free to set their own policies. I had an approval granted awhile ago which I have yet to take...
  12. Excelsior ADN program

    It took me about 5 months to test out of all the nursing exams plus micro bio and doing a math class through another school called ALEKS. It kind of angered me that the FCCA's make you wait 2 months...
  13. EC College costs seem low but are not worth it

    I'm sorry that you've had such a terrible experience but I really think you should give it a third try. From what you say it sounds like you're doing all the proper preparation and have either been...
  14. Money aside

    I did the exam option and didn't regret it one bit. It's tough to stay focused in a course if you know the material very well or if the material being taught is at a simpler level than what you...
  15. I think this as well as the other recent changes to the program are definitely steps in the right direction and I couldn't be happier. Most other Nursing programs require the TEAS or HESI A2 exam to...
  16. Studyguide101 or books??

    Why not use both? That's what I prefer to do. I use the content guide to guide me through the textbook and I use Google to elaborate a little further on things I'm not completely sure of/are...
  17. BON Investigating Excelsior College

    I don't necessarily believe this is cause for concern so I'm not sure why the advisor spoke "nervously". Excelsior has listed this on the state board req area of their site so it's not like they are...
  18. Health Safety Exam

    I was going to link my thread about the health safety exam however when I went through my activity I realized that I actually didn't make one for health safety. Im not sure why but I guess i forgot....
  19. Hey guys/gals just thought I'd share some information regarding ALEKS. First and foremost I think this is the easiest way to obtain the needed math credits. I already had math credits but Excelsior...
  20. SG 101 What is this all about?

    info literacy is a joke of a course and doesn't require a studyguide. Do the course and you'll
  21. Ideal Score for Practice exam to get above a C

    It really doesn't correlate as much as people think. Meaning there are many people who pass a practice exam but then fail the actual exam. Use the practice exam as more of a study tool to pin point...
  22. Excelsior Pace

    I don't think 8 weeks is too ambitious at all as long as you feel comfortable testing when the time comes. Before excelsior forced me to take a winter break (won't let me schedule an exam between Dec...
  23. Passed Transitions Exam!

    I only used the SG101 notes however this resulted in a lonely B, which Is better than a fail I suppose. Many people on here are content with a C and that is okay but you need to remember grades will...
  24. Information Literacy

    I just recently did the Tor option for Info literacy. Excelsior didn't give me any trouble about accepting it but to be honest the class is a joke. Tor College provides all the materials you need and...
  25. Passed Microbiology Today!

    I am doing the Test out option as I find myself to be a decent test taker. I recommend everyone to try the test out option first since excelsior will refund your enrollment fee if you later decide...
