If you are looking for a convenient way to study for the NCLEX, Varsity Tutors offers an online Albany NCLEX course that can meet your needs. Aspiring nurses like students from SUNY Hudson Valley Community College and SUNY Empire State College know how challenging the NCLEX exam is and are also searching for innovative ways to approach their test prep. Enrolling in an online course like the Albany NCLEX prep course led by experienced instructors can give you the support you need to perform at your best in the test. You can complete your review entirely online and still have the option to meet your instructor in a one-on-one session. Every aspect of the course is designed to help you have a more convenient and effective test prep experience.
What are some of the topics an Albany NCLEX class can cover?
The NCLEX comes in two categories - NCLEX-RN and NCLEX-PN. The former is for graduates of registered nursing programs and the latter is for those who would like to work as practical/vocational nurses. It is also a lengthy exam, lasting up to 6 hours for NCLEX-RN and up to 5 hours for NCLEX-PN. Your Albany NCLEX class will cover the four main categories tested in the exam and the subsections for each type of test, which are Physiological Integrity, Psychosocial Integrity, Safe and Effective Care Environment, and Health Promotion and Maintenance. The subsection for Safe and Effective Care Environment, for example, will include the management of care for RNs and coordinated care for PNs.
Besides covering the content of the exam, your instructor can help you learn techniques that may boost your test-taking skills. The NCLEX is a computer-adaptive test, which means the number and level of difficulty of questions will vary for each student since questions are generated based on the answers you give on previous questions. Questions can stop as soon as your competency level has been determined, which means you can pass or fail before the entire potential test has been completed. Generally, the NCLEX-RN has between 75 and 265 questions, while the NCLEX-PN has between 85 and 205 questions. NCLEX questions are primarily multiple-choice questions, but there will also be multiple-response, fill-in-the-blank calculation, and ordered-response question types. Questions may also have graphics, charts, tables, audio, and video.
What are the advantages of enrolling in an Albany NCLEX course?
There are several advantages found in the course that can have a positive impact on your review. Unlike other review courses that may require you to travel to a physical location, the NCLEX course with Varsity Tutors is done online. This means you only need your internet connection to start studying. Instead of a physical classroom, you will work on practice questions and discuss nursing procedures and cases in a virtual classroom. You'll use video chat and an online whiteboard to interact with your instructor and other students in the class. You can get immediate answers when you ask questions and may gain new insights about nursing topics through the perspective of your classmates.
Since the course is online, we can also offer a variety of classes on a given day. This makes it easy for you to fit a class in your busy schedule. There's no need to commute, so you can even take classes in the evening and not worry about your trip going back home. You can study safely and comfortably in a distraction-free environment of your choice.
If you encounter difficulties during your study, the course gives you access to expert instructors you can approach for help. They are not only experts in their field but also very good communicators who can help you have a deeper understanding of nursing concepts tested in the NCLEX. Having the guidance and knowledge of highly qualified instructors can help you improve your nursing skills and know-how much faster compared to just studying on your own. The course also lets you meet your instructor one-on-one outside of class if ever you need extra help on addressing your difficulties in the exam.
How can I enroll in an Albany NCLEX course?
Whether you're aiming for the RN or PN NCLEX exam, you've already put a lot of hard work into your nursing studies and the NCLEX is the last thing you need to conquer in order to start working as a professional nurse. Varsity Tutors can give you the support you need to perform at your best in the test. Reach out to our educational consultants at Varsity Tutors and sign up for our Albany NCLEX course today.
