I need HELP upon choosing for a good NLE review center in Manila

Published

Hi everyone! I graduated Nursing last 2009 and was not able to take the board exam due to financial reasons. I am planning to take the exam this December and I would like to know if anyone of you here could tell me which review centers should I consider to enroll to. I am not familiar with Review Centers in Manila and I really need help. :mad:

I want a review center that focuses on student's progress in studies; and the one that is not over populated :uhoh3:. And I have been reading blogs, comments, etc. about review centers and I just can't choose one. :uhoh3: I am starting to review my notes now and I need a review center that could enhance my knowledge because to tell you honestly, I am not good in Anatomy, and was just an average during my Nursing school days. I am having a hard time focusing on my studies :yawn: and I am not that good at memorizing normal values :confused: .

So please guys, I need your help. Please give me feed backs of the review centers in Manila, how they handle their students, and how they motivate them. :D

Thank you so much. Your replies will be of great help.:yeah:

hi if you have a limited buget you can try RUN a review center in Sta Mesa near PUP. They offer quality lessons at an affordable price. If you want a review center more on test technique try St. Louie but it is more expensive but I think they still offer discounts. God Bless in your exam

Hi! Based on our experience during Nov 2008 board, Pentagon is better than Merge. My classmate & I used to exchanged reviewers and Pentagon Notes are far better and ahead compare to Merge. At the end of the day, it is still your DETERMINATION to pass and learn that will bring you in achieving your goals. Good luck!

Merge has a lot of reviewees but is good over-all. Lectures are never boring and those review assistants are generally helpful. They also have mock exams which really helped. Got a really really good grade in my NLE (June 2008) and Merge was my review center.

It's good that you are doing advanced reading for the boards. It would really help you if you establish a strong foundation especially on the fundamentals of nursing and normal lab values and infection control. Remember that you don't have to memorize technical terms like define what a proton pump inhibitor is... just understand them because most of the questions are APPLIED and not theoretical. Oh and answer as many nclex questions as possible and know the rationale.

Good luck!

thanks a lot..you're a great help :bow::bow::bow:..i'll take note of what you have said.. I am actually answering my cousin's n-clex reviewer for the mean time and I am so looking forward to enhance my knowledge since I graduated last year and I really do need help with my review soon..

I have been opening the websites of review centers but they all look good to me and I can't decide.. But what you have told me now is very amazing, giving me tips right now is like giving me the idea that whatever review center I would enroll into, what matters are "What I did" and "How much I gave in for it"..

thanks a lot..:up::up::up:
