Passed NC4 with an A today. Yay!!! I'm listing my Chancellor's study guide on eBay right now. I also used Lisa Arends' notes, as well as notes from Studygroup101. The EC practice tests were extremely helpful, as always.

I'm taking NC7 on September 17 and NC5 on September 26. Rollin' along ..

Damn woman, you're rocking!  How many does that leave you with!

You are really moving on these exams. I need to pick up my game. Right now I am starting to wonder if I will get them done by Christmas. Congratulations, I know you have studied hard.

Three more! NC5, NC6, and NC7. Then Micro, Lifespan, and Sociology while I wait for my CPNE date (*gulp*).

I think once you finish NC3, things will speed up -- that one is just plain difficult because of all the different subjects. You can do it!

A bit of a delay but congrats !!    I'm anxious to just get NC 1 done How far ahead can you schedule?  I think I'd like to take it early Oct but I know if I have a set date I'd do better with studying Also Lisa what a small world we live in.... I noticed you on a High School friend of mines Myspace page

[Lisa, RN]

Would that be Jennifer's MySpace page? Because she's the only person I know (from online, anyway) around your area. How funny!!!

You have a bunch of time to take your test -- Excelsior gives you about nine months to take it after you register for it, and Pearson Vue lets you schedule months in advance.

I definitely do better with a set date -- setting deadlines like that for myself is the best way for me to get this stuff done! Go figure, I've worked in a deadline-driven industry (graphic design/desktop publishing) for 13+ years.

[Michelle_VA]

Yep Jennifer      We Graduated together and were pretty good friends in High School.  What a small world we live in   I think I'll go ahead and schedule my NC 1 Exam later that way it's done    Yay I am excited.  I am doing my Human Growth & Dev Clep on the 19th , I'm a bit nervous, but we'll see.

[Lisa, RN]

Do it! Do it! You'll feel better once it's scheduled.

Let me know how the CLEP goes ... I still need to do that one after I take NC6 next month.

I took NC6 toaday and now studying NC4.  I have the TCN module and Lisa Arend's notes.  I also have Chancellor's audio CDs.  Do the CDs have full info on them?  I am just listening to the first one.
Any tips???

So Is NC 4 the "hardest" I notice a lot of ppl skipping it and coming back   What order are most ppl doing the NC exams in??

Chancellor's audio is the Chancellor's study guide, word for word. I used that as my primary resource for NC4.

[becky214RN]

Thanks, Lisa...more confident knowing I can hear as well as read the info! 

I am not sure NC4 is the hardest...just threw me at first to see that 40% of the final is on 1/4 of the module!  Cancer is not my favorite subject...been there.  Maybe the experience will make some of that part more easily understood.  Cardiovascular and respiratory systems can seem daunting to some also.

I actually skipped from 3 to 6 because I needed to get another test done quickly to meet my personal time line and the book was thinner!  Some reasoning, hey?     But...we have to do all of them in the long run, so order makes little difference.  Look the modules over and go in what order is comfortable for you.  Keep in mind that each does rely a little on previous info.
