The Nursing Jewel ..So does this method of CLEP help one override using excelsior or achievement prep? Your method to CLEPing out pre-reqs sounds less expensive than those 2 other options ( Achieve Test Prep or Excelsior)
You are amazing.... about the prerequisites can I do them now in Nigeria because I'm currently in 200 level Biochemistry?... Will they consider that?. Is it possible to get scholarship that'll cover the perquisites courses?
@@naturallytoun accepting credits from international schools depends on the school you apply to, some may take them and some may not. Also scholarships aren't usually given for just prerequisite courses, you would have to be a full-time or part-time student enrolled in a program
The Nursing Jewel... and when I say TH-cam, I mean search the specific subjects and do so. Also, Straighterline is another way to get your prereqs done!
Hi I am working to be in nursing maybe you can send me those link with your study guide for human life growth and sociology. That would be very helpful
I just found out about CLEP the other day at first i was nervous about the whole process for nursing school but this less anxious for the class thank you for this video
Thank you so much I am trying to get my rn but I have no prerequisites at all. I have been an lpn for 2 years now. This is helping me figure out what I want to do
😩 I thank you so much for this video, I know I’m late so thank goodness I found it. Sitting in one pre-req course is $300+ and I can take all the exams combined for that amount. 😂😂 THANK YOU 🙏🏾
I’m going to go for the LPN first so I can start working sooner. I have no college credits what so ever but I want to eventually bridge to RN. Will Clep get all the my pre reqs out of the way so I can get into the RN program? Just don’t want to have to waste time going back to a class
You would have to check with the RN schools that you're considering. Most of them don't accept CLEP for science courses because they want you to do the labs. A lot of them accept classes like psychology, sociology, and developmental psych.
Thanks same here ,, im gonna start my prerequisites July 2020 because my school i want to go to i need 10 classes clep that their gonna approve so ill be going to RN School next year March 2021 so. Im happy with that slowly ill become that RN Student. Good luck to u RN Jewel.😘😘😘
Hey! I have a question, actually I completed my high school 2 months ago and now I am taking my prerequisite classes for RN in a Community college but I have a doubt. Will the prerequisite classes in community College be of 2 years and Will I get An Associate degree with it Or after Completing my Prerequisite classes (as a full time student) I have to spend another 2 years for ADN. I am confused about the duration of this program and don’t know these classes will take me to the ADN degree in 2 years or 4 years
Good info! That's a lot of money for one of those classes. Our classes at community college here in Sacramento are $46 per credit. I have my pre-reqs for LVN complete but I will start some of those science courses for RN while I wait to get into the LVN program. It's a long process that I feel is going so slow for me😣
Hi! Just wondering about your progress. Are you going to OCC? I am an LPN and doing my pre-req’s there now. I hear there is now a minimum 5 semester wait for Nursing 1 😩
Wow I never heard that a school will give you a letter grade for CLEP. What's your bachelor's in? I have a BS in biology and want to get into nursing. Everyone tells.me to do an ASBN program, but I work full time and really hate to quit a good job. So my next thought was to do an evening lpn program and then find work as an LPN once I finish the program. From there I can do a LPN to rn/ or BSN program. I know Indiana state has an online lpn to bsn program. What was your journey?
I have a BS in public health. I didn’t want to take out another loan for an absn program right after college plus my gpa wasn’t that high so I decided to take the LPN route since it was cheaper and quicker than an rn program. The other plus side was that I could work as an LPN while completing rn school. I have currently applied to an LPN to RN bridge program and an ABSN program and am waiting to hear back from both.
The Nursing Jewel that's awesome!! Same situation as me pretty much! I was a biochem major initially and I struggled in organic chemistry and biochem as well as some of the really high level math I had to take (Calc 1 and Calc 2. Calc 2 was roughhhh). So long story short I eventually changed to biology but the damage was done. I graduated with a 2.81 GPA. I've taken some prereqs (ap1, ap2 and microbiology. Got As in all of them). I really wanted to do the lpn route but unfortunately around here, they only have evening programs at the private schools. Prism and Lincoln tech. Both of them cost $26k!! Ugh. It's just too much i feel. So I'm going to try to get into the community college evening RN program I think but I know it'll delay me a lot 😩 I've heard it takes like 3 attempts to get in. Even with good grades. Sigh.
@@CouponFrenzy wow that's a lot for just an LPN program 😱 mine was just 7k. Are there more than one community colleges around you? I would suggest applying to more than 1 just because community college RN programs are notorious for being super selective and having long waitlists.
@@CouponFrenzy I'm in the same situation as you dear, I really want to get into the lvn program but I have a good job right now and getting into the program will mean that I quit my job which it doesn't make sense plus the program is like 30k in California here ugh. I thought of community colleges but it takes damn too long to even get in
Hey I just came across your page, and this must be an answer from God! I’m taking my prerequisites now online as well and in taking Chem first I wanted to know if you could do a video discussing how you study and managed you time to be successful for your online courses and lab. Thanks in advance
I am currently in an accelerated BSN program and graduate in the summer. At the time of this video, the LPN to RN bridge programs were the cheapest option for me, plus I felt that my undergrad GPA couldn't compete with others who were applying for the ABSN program. Apparently I was wrong lol
@@TheNursingJewel omg that's awesome! Happy for you! I am applying to start in spring 2022 at a community College. I really hope I get accepted. Thank you!
Good day dear, I have watched several of yours video and it's really inspiring. I want to apply for a nursing program that can help me step into the career of nursing. I have no science background. I want to apply as an international student. What program should i step into that can help me move into nursing?I need your help on this and also the college in USA for international students? I want to apply early this year. I will really appreciate it, if my request is granted. I will look forward to hearing from you. Thanks so much for your time.
Hello, I would say for international students the best route is through an associate degree in Nursing (RN) or a bachelor's degree (BSN, RN). To make your search easier I would say start with a state that you would like to go to school in like New York, California, etc., then look up nursing (RN) programs in that state. In most cases they will show admissions requirements for international students. The programs may consist of science courses so you may not have to take them before getting accepted. I'll attach some links to articles that I found that may help with your decision www.internationalstudent.com/study-nursing/nursing-programs-in-the-us/

CLEP works. I did so for human life growth and development, and sociology. I studied from TH-cam! For about a month and boom, passed! Worth it!
Good to know! I didn't know that youtube had study videos, I'll have to check it out
The Nursing Jewel... and when I say TH-cam, I mean search the specific subjects and do so. Also, Straighterline is another way to get your prereqs done!

I can even do that while I’m in the LPN program
I had NO IDEA! I will definitely be looking into it when I transition from LVN to RN. Girl you are genius!

Hi! Just wondering about your progress. Are you going to OCC? I am an LPN and doing my pre-req’s there now. I hear there is now a minimum 5 semester wait for Nursing 1 😩
Hi! I only went to OCC for my prerequisite classes. I'm currently in NJCU's ABSN program, but that 5 semester wait sounds crazy
Thanks for the tip.You gave me something to think about.
Ours requires what u mentioned PLUS eng 1 n 2 and sociology

Your so informative! I’m so happy I’m running into your videos!
The Bridge Program does accept LPN from private schools ?
Thank you for making this video, a visiting nurse while I was with a patient told me about clep. I will definitely look into!
Have u talked 2 anyone who took Clep and how long they prepared for like days weeks etx
The only person I know that took it was for a computer class, not much studying needed for that. I'm giving myself 3-4 weeks per class to study
Thank you so very much for this information!!!
I’m in California Fresno is it worth it to be a LPNs and after I take the LPNs program is it easy to become a Rn
I usually tell people to just go straight to RN unless you need the money sooner
Thank you so much for the feedback
That sounds great to me!!!
Don’t have to go to class or waste time traveling to school
Just make sure the schools that you have in mind will accept CLEP. I left a link in the description box
Hi great video i would like to find out if you don't pass the entrance exams to nursing schools (lpn)

Why not just go into accelerated BSN program since you already have a bachelor's degree? Just curious, thanks!
