## Surgical Tech to RN
In our Surgery Tech to RN Bridge Program, we can help you earn your RN license and ASN or BSN degree by testing-out of many of your prerequisite courses using credit-by-exam.
Average salaries for RNs and RN-BSNs are $62,000-$90,000 respectively. Achieve can help you get there.

## How It Works
[##](##)
### 01 Evaluate
We’ll help you get maximum credit for your past courses or work experience and create a custom plan to finish your degree.
### 02 Test Prep
Our short and easy ***live, teacher-led*** online classes will prepare you to test-out of your selected classes.
### 03 Take Exam - Earn Credits
Take the exam at one of 1,900 testing centers. Arrive with confidence knowing Achieve students have a 93%\* pass rate.
## Testing-Out is Faster, Cheaper, and Easier than Taking the College Courses
For example, you can **test-out** of some college courses with just 4 Achieve's sessions. Each semester of a college course = meeting several times a week for 15 weeks and completing assignments, research projects, quizzes, and term papers. And you need to buy those expensive books!
For each test-prep class, you meet only **once per week** (on campus or online) and are preparing to pass just one exam and the condensed books are **FREE**.
The test-out exams are offered by organizations like CLEP® and DSST®, and are accepted in place of college courses by virtually all colleges and universities.
## Finding the Best College for You!
Here’s something you probably don’t know: some colleges are much more accommodating about what they will give you credit for, or let you test-out of, than others. Achieve can help you find one that will accept the most transfer/test-out credits.
## Past College Credit Analysis
With literally thousands of colleges to choose from, researching on your own is overwhelming, if not impossible. Some colleges even charge to evaluate past college credit and that adds up.
Achieve handles all the research and finds the best option for every student. Even if you’ve already selected a college, we can still help you by-pass courses and save money and time at this college.
## Testimonials
"I started out with The College Network and Excelsior 2 years ago. There was so much material to go through and when I did have questions, there was nobody who could really answer them. I never even finished the 1st course. With Achieve I completed my first class in less than 2 months, will finish another in a few months and will soon start studying for the CLEP. Achieve is the way to go!"

"The delivery of the virtual classes was great, and I could watch the virtual classes over again to make sure I really understood everything. I was able to pick and choose the most convenient approach: Live online or Live in-person. It allowed me to be in the driver's seat on choosing my path. I am thrilled to share my experience."

"I am so happy I found Achieve. In this program you have a teacher and other students in the class (on campus and virtual) just like you, working and raising a family and trying to get their RN's too. The teachers are very stimulating and stay on you about learning the material and teaching what you need to pass the exams. I passed each of my exams on the first try and usually made an A or a B."

\* Only the latest pass/fail result per course per customer is used. We use approximately the last 24 months of results in our calculation. Customer failed results are only counted as part of this calculation if the customer completed the course, which is defined as at least 85% attendance and 85% completion of assignments for that specific course. Results do not include college entrance or state license exams.
\*\* Achieve Test Prep is a college education consultant and test preparation center that helps you earn your degree faster. Achieve Test Prep is not a college and does not issue degrees or give college credit. The programs listed above and elsewhere on this website are test preparation programs offered by Achieve Test Prep to prepare you to take exams from an independent accredited college or an independent testing center. Achieve purposefully remains independent and does not align itself with any college nor do we commit to any agreements with any college. By being truly independent, we offer a non-biased approach to recommending the best possible college route to our customers. While Achieve Test Prep is very knowledgeable on the policies and procedures of many colleges, the final decisions about credits and degrees rest with the colleges. You must independently apply for and be accepted into a college.
