2. Do you NEED a study group to get through nursing school?

   blongo replied to Student2017555's topic in Student Assist

   In my opinion you absolutely do. It is so helpful to have a group. BUT everyone is different and has different personalities. As some people have already stated they prefer to study alone. I suppose it is a personal preference but I found it to be ad...

   blongo replied to Lev's topic in NCLEX

   Totally agree with #5. PVT was not accurate in my case!

5. Is nursing school REALLY that hard?

   blongo replied to Courtney M's topic in General Students

   It is hard but if you study you will be fine. That was the hard part for me because in prior schooling I had always done well without studying much. You have to study and focus in nursing school. You will be fine, good luck!

   I used a great app on the IPhone called NCLEX RN Mastery. I paid for the full version and practiced questions daily and I think it really helped as a refresher.

   If you got the good pop up the odds are in your favor, I'm not disputing the good pop up. All the reading I have done on this seems to have the same conclusion: good pop up is a good sign. I'm arguing if you didn't get a pop up at all or you got the ...

    blongo replied to blongo's topic in NCLEX

    Thank you for sharing. This is the exact message I was trying to convey when starting this discussion. Also wanted to post that I did pay for Quick Results and I did pass. Therefore, the PVT did not work for me as I stated. Remember it's only a "tric...

    It can work if you pass but not necessarily if it says you failed! I know I keep saying that but that is the whole point of this thread.

    blongo replied to Rena523's topic in School Programs

    I just graduated from this school. You could always apply and take a risk. BUT, my personal feeling on the topic after finishing the program and meeting other students is that only the highest GPA's are getting in. They get so many applicants and the...

    blongo replied to Hallgor's topic in NCLEX

    I took it at 27 weeks and I was uncomfortable so I'm thinking no for you.
