Hello everyone,
I am really confused about something, I really hope I dont sound stupid! :uhoh3:
I have decided to finish my degree with excelsior, but I am having some confusion. Please tell me if I am on the right track...
There are a series of tests that you take at a testing location, and then at the end you prove your clinical knowledge at the final 3 day clinical site?
Here is my BIG question....How do I know what will be on the test? And where do I get that information? Suggested books, study guides? I have looked all over and I think I am still so confused!
If someone could help me I will be eternally greatfull!!!!!!
Thank you,
Jen

Go to the website, http://www.excelsior.edu. Go to the school of nursing. When you get there, look for the publications page and go to that link. You will scroll down until you find the study guides for the tests you want to prepare for. But be aware that you will not be able to download the study guides for tests 3 and above unless you have enrolled. In each study guide are listed the recommended texts. Another way to find out the recommended texts is to go to the bookstore on the website. They list each one for the nursing program. Copy down the names and ISBN numbers and you can find the books elsewhere cheaper. You can also check the books out of a library and use them for free. You can find lots of answers and helpful hints by browsing the distance forum. HTH
Thanks you SO much!
