THIS IS A CRAZY LONG Intro. Save yourself the time and just find the “intro post” in the 661
shared drive and print it out. You’ll need to look back at the info many times over the next 3
plus months and won’t want to keep coming back to Facebook to find it. Plus, the one in the
drive is in pretty colors and has the sections spaced better. Use Control+F to search for whatever
in these 16 pages here and in the doc in the shared drive.
***** In case you haven’t saved info from the shared drives, I will delete them in the months
following graduation to eliminate my burgeoning data. Use the links below to save what you
want to keep ****

Very little of the following is my original info. Everything in this is compiled from the FB pages of
classes ahead of us. I THINK it is current and correct, but please check Canvas for accuracy. A fair
amount of the boards and credentialing information came from Erin Oberly. If you notify me of
any inaccuracies, I will post them to the group.
Clinical hours for 661:
We get 20 clinical hours from Intensive review and can also log 15 alternative hours. This leaves
105 hours needed for a total of 125 hours for 8 weeks.
Overall class assignments/ info:
• NR 661 has 3 papers (wk 1,5,6) case studies (weeks 2, 4, 6), 2 part portfolio (due week 5 and
6), APEA videos to watch, and there are 3 timed APEA exams (50 questions each), 3 practice
quizzes, APEA practice exams (30 points each in weeks 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7), APEA Intensive review
(October 13-15, 200 points), and the final APEA exit exam week 8 (300 points). Vise- see week 3
below. See the shared drive for the assignments in a table form by week/ due days, VISE study
information, boards study info, and more. I add stuff throughout the class, especially in the first
few weeks.
The quizzes are based on some case studies that are NOT graded but have 40 questions each.
Regarding the exit exam (AKA APEA post predictor exam) one student said: "It wasn't as hard as
I heard... make a nice cushion for yourself and complete every single APEA practice question
and read the rationales. If you do that you will increase your chances of scoring in the high 90
percent or even a 100 on some and that will give you close to the full 30 points each week on
the quizzes.”
, Note that our intensive review weekend comes at the END of week 6. Part 2 of the Portfolio is
due then too!

APEA Q bank/ Hollier videos:
You must have seen every question in the Q bank and watched every video by the end of the
course. The APEA Hollier videos are in the APEA CE Center (see your emails). You need to watch
videos in a separate area/link from the questions, but the login is the same for both. The videos
are available 8/25/2019 12:00:00 AM BUT YOU CAN ONLY WATCH EACH ONE TWICE! so take
good notes. When you first watch it the video it will have a 2 next to it. After it's watched the
first time it will have a number 1 to indicate you can only watch it one more time. If the number
has not changed or it reads not completed, you probably didn’t play it to the very end. Lots of
students reported this issue. For the introduction video you must watch it twice for it to say
completed, but don't do this on other videos unless you don't want to watch them again! You
can use the mobile APEA app to watch videos while commuting, etc. The program credits you
for watching it even if the sound is off.
You can print "download course manual" as a pdf to follow along with the videos, but the “APEA
course manual” is also given to us at intensive review if you don’t want to waste the paper/ ink.
Some students reported issues with lagging/freezing videos, but it resolved once they clear the
cache and browsing hx on their browser.
You can practice any and all questions this week one. After week 1, the first exam you take
counts starting next week.
To restart an exam that you've only done part of: FIRST MAKE SURE TO hit save BEFORE you
leave the exam that you plan to go back to. Go up to where your name is a drop-down will
come up- select Saved quizzes and you will restart where you were.
Several students said they printed off all the course materials for Amelie’s review and went to
Kinkos to get it spiral bound or put it in a 3-ring binder with tabbed divider sheets.
How to calculate your APEA practice exam score: every week just do 30 x (whatever percentage
you got in decimal form). For example, if 74% then 30 x 0.74= 22.2. If your score was 84% then
that is 0.84 x 30 or 25.2/30 =84%
