If you're preparing to take the NCLEX, Varsity Tutors can assist you in finding Cincinnati NCLEX prep. Students who are finishing their nursing program and are ready for the next step to licensure can benefit from reviewing for the NCLEX. Whether you studied nursing at the University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati State Bethesda School of Nursing, or another nursing program nearby, the NCLEX will cover topics you've learned during your course work. It's important to review everything you've learned, including the fundamentals, because it's all covered in the NCLEX. You can be better prepared when you either take a Cincinnati NCLEX prep course or connect with a private tutor.
What are some of the concepts that will be covered during Cincinnati NCLEX preparation?
The NCLEX is the National Council Licensure Examination and has two versions--one for practical nurses (PN) and one for registered nurses (RN). The test covers client needs which is one of the most important things a nurse should know. The NCLEX is divided into four sections: Safe and Effective Care Environment, Psychosocial Integrity, Health Promotion and Maintenance, and Physiological Integrity. Each section is divided into subsections which can differ between the PN test and the RN test, just like the length of the test is different. Examples of some subsections include Safety and Infection Control and Reduction of Risk Potential. The PN test is five hours long while the RN test is six hours.
During Cincinnati NCLEX prep, you can gain an understanding of the format as well as reviewing the content of the NCLEX. This computer-adaptive test will measure your true ability level of being a nurse. The RN test has no less than 75 questions and no more than 265 questions while the PN version has between 85 and 205 questions. You'll need to make sure you read each question carefully because how you answer one question determines what your next question is. You won't be able to skip questions and go back to them. Your NCLEX instructor can show you techniques on how to eliminate the wrong answers so you can make your best guess if you don't know the answer.
What are the benefits of doing NCLEX prep?
Varsity Tutors can connect you with either online group classes or find a private tutor. Each type of NCLEX prep can help you in its own unique way. Many students usually chose only one type, but some students make the choice to do both. Both prep types will have an NCLEX instructor who knows the test well and is ready to share their knowledge with you. Next, we'll discuss each type of prep in more detail.
Working in a collaborative environment gives you more of an opportunity to share with others. If you enjoy doing that, a Cincinnati NCLEX prep class might be just what you need. After you enroll in the class, you'll meet in our Live Learning Platform. You and the other students will use a video chat and a virtual whiteboard to talk to your NCLEX instructor. They will lead you and the other students in discussions and answer any questions you have. Learning in a collaborative environment allows you to share what you know while at the same time you gain new ideas from others. For instance, you might be struggling with how to communicate with a client's family, but another student might have some thoughts on that topic. One-on-one time is available with your instructor if you're still having difficulty with a concept.
Sometimes working alone is a better way to review the material you've learned, and if you want some guidance, seeking a Cincinnati NCLEX tutor is helpful. A private instructor can focus on what you need during your sessions. They can encourage you as you're preparing for the exam and give you suggestions on some study skills that might work for you. You'll be able to ask questions without worrying about what the other students will think. Your NCLEX instructor can give you feedback continuously throughout each session and motivate you to do your best.
How do I sign up for Cincinnati NCLEX prep?
Whether you thinking about an online class or a private tutor, you'll have a qualified NCLEX instructor ready to assist you. We have flexible scheduling, so no matter how busy you are, you can find online classes or private tutoring that will work around your daily tasks. If you have questions or want to know more about Cincinnati NCLEX prep, an educational consultant from Varsity Tutors can help you get started.

I love to teach and see the "ah-ha" moment when those concepts...

Remember, I was a nursing student once, and I know what it's like to be in that position.
