Any new Austin Community College grads?

Published

First of all...CONGRATS!!!

I just finished level 3 and about to start level 4, I heard tons of students had a lot of trouble passing? I'm just wondering if you have any tips for next semester? I'm taking the HURST review in Jan and I'm hoping that will help. Any other suggestions?

On another note..where are you going to work?

Hi there, sorry this is a little late....err really late! :) Are you doing the online or onsight? I was onsight and it was a really big challenge. The teachers are so wonderful but the notes were a bit off. Maybe you could get some online notes and compare the two. The test are mostly priority which really gets you prepared for the NCLEX. Mostly study study study, and know the why behind everything. Its a very difficult, challenging but rewarding semester. Do you know who your instructor is yet?

I'm onsite and we wont know who our instructors are until next week. Should I be reading the book or only the syllabus notes? I did the Hurst review and I'm hoping it helps at least a little bit! Thank you so much for responding! Where are you working at? Have you taken the NCLEX yet?

Definitely read the book, it helps to reinforce the info, do not just read the syllabus only, I think I would go to lecture and then read the book to help clarify. I did the hurst review prior to my 4th semester and it helped alittle. Do it also before you take the NCLEX. I did and I passed with 80 questions!!!! I will be working at South Austin Hospital starting next week!:wink2:
