Varsity Tutors can help set you up with a Philadelphia NCLEX course if you're preparing for the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN) or the NCLEX-PN, the National Council Licensure Examination for Practical Nurses. Both tests are designed to measure your competency for entry-level nursing positions. Your education at the University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing or La Salle University has led up to this point, and a thorough review of what you've learned, as well as the format of both exams, can help you reach for your full potential on test day.
What Can a Philadelphia NCLEX Course Review Help Me Study?
There is a great deal of content covered in the 6-hour NCLEX-RN and 5-hour NCLEX-PN. The health needs of clients are the focus of both tests, while the test plans are updated every three years. Your Philadelphia NCLEX prep course must, therefore, be up to date to ensure you receive an adequate review. During this review, you will learn about the Safe and Effective Care Environment and how care is managed and coordinated, along with Safety and Infection Control. An overview of Health Promotion and Maintenance is a crucial step. Your instructor can also help you study topics related to Psychosocial Integrity and Physiological Integrity, which ensures you are knowledgeable about patient care and comfort, applying the proper therapies, and reducing risk.
The nursing process will be the focus of a Philadelphia NCLEX class session. But if you need a refresher in psychology, sociology, and biological sciences such as anatomy, your instructor might review these to ensure your foundational knowledge is intact. Some chemistry and physics topics and concepts may be reviewed as well. Another important aspect of test prep is the format of the exams. This is crucial because the NCLEX exams are computer adaptive. Not all questions are multiple choice; the computer will change the questions based on your previous answers, so alternate formats such as fill-in-the-blanks may be used. Also, charts, graphics, sound, video, tables, and other multimedia may be thrown in for good measure.
No matter what skill level or format a question represents, you want to think through it carefully. You won't have an opportunity to go back and review it. The computer estimates your ability after each answer is submitted, and selects the next item based on its estimates on whether you will answer the next one correctly.
How Can a Philadelphia NCLEX Class Help Me Prepare?
Each Philadelphia NCLEX class is led by an instructor who has experience teaching test prep. They can focus on specific content areas or the format of the exams while exposing students to helpful study and test-taking strategies. You might even work on practice tests to become more familiar and comfortable with the types of questions you may see on test day. Each session provides an opportunity to collaborate with your classmates online. A Live Learning Platform with a virtual whiteboard and video chat is used to enable intuitive and engaging lessons.
A Philadelphia NCLEX course provides the opportunity to work together with your peers in studying, a process that is often more effective than studying alone. You can collaborate on memorizing the key stages of the nursing process to coordinate care for clients, or better understand important aspects of communication and documentation. When you have a question, your instructor or peers can pitch in, and you can do the same. While you're logged in online anywhere that's comfortable to study, you can see, hear, and talk to everyone who is participating. If you are really confused on a particular topic, you can request a one-on-one session with your instructor, and they'll do their best to meet your needs. Your learning options are therefore flexible.
How Do I Sign Up for a Philadelphia NCLEX Course?
Signing up for a Philadelphia NCLEX course provides you with the opportunity to address learning opportunities and reach for your potential on either the NCLEX-RN or NCLEX-PN exam. Another advantage of the course is you can choose from many different sessions. Some are held lunchtime, while others are in the afternoon or evening; for students whose daily activities prohibit them from studying, weekend sessions are available. Courses are offered in two- and four-week sessions that begin on a monthly basis, which further adds flexibility and enables you to get started without putting too little time between your prep efforts and an exam. Contact Varsity Tutors today for help signing up for an NCLEX course at the most convenient time.
