Hi, has anybody taken ethics through portage learning? I was wondering what it entailed are there multiple choice questions for tests writing papers.

Honestly I cannot remember it was a long time. I personally did not take ethics thru Portage. I only took Stats and Chemistry which the Chemistry teacher was a very tough grader.

Well said! I agree with you, those exams are very difficult.

Oh yes I did procrastinate a bit. The exams are hard, they are not easy.

I want to tell you about my NCLEX expierence. I went to the Worcester, Ma location which is very nice. Its easy and not intimidating. I was very calm and ready to take test. I had 40 Select All That Apply questions, 10 Pharmacology questions, 10 math...

I ended up taking Ethics through my school online. It was much easier. I took statistics through Portage and found it very tough. Good luck!

Hello, So I can tell you that this company is very tough. The teachers are great but are strict. I think I can remember about 50. I got an A in the class but I worked very hard for it. If your not a computer savvy learner then I wouldn't take it from...

Was wondering if anyone has taken their Statistics online threw them? I need to take it for the summer and I am okay in math but would like more info? How is the learning? How are the videos? What major things were hard? How were tests? Thanks! Jilli...

Yes it is open book but everything is online so it was hard to go back and forth with looking. The exams differ from course to course. The Chemistry exams were very hard I felt. I think taking it throu a school was easier.

Thank you for this info! I have taken the med-surg and it is very difficult but like you said if you keep at it and do the work you can achieve a level 3. I have peds, maternity and community left and I want to score a level 3 on those so I am defini...

I am curious who has paid for this program and has it worked for them? I need visual aides to help me a lot and I have heard ups and downs about this program. Any feedback on this program or others would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Thank you!

Thanks!!!! I feel like I need more visual aides to help me! Picmonics has helped me and my school gave a code for free so I have used that. I was curious of others

I was wondering about Simple Nursing..... I am struggling with med surg really bad and I am a visual aide person. I am wondering if its worth the money to invest in his videos. Its a lot of money for a limited amount of access so I'm wondering how th...

Hi Emily, Sorry for the name mistake. Yes, you do have to find your own preceptorship which is a pain and a lot of people are having trouble because there is a lot of competition out there. I am looking into Simmons for their NP program but also othe...

Hi Lillian, I just saw this! Honestly, I would pick Simmons! I go to Regis now and I am not very happy with the school itself. I am 30 and I can tell you even the accelerated program I feel like they treat you like a little kid. I am dissapointed wit...

I have only taken Stats and Chem with them and I can tell you that the Chemistry teacher is very tough and I dropped it. Stats wasn't bad.

I personally would pair medical Terminology and Pathophysiology together. Nutrition take on your own as there is a lot of info to cover. I know at my school Nutrition was a big course in determining if you got into the Nursing field. I took it alone,...

Thanks for being blunt, I think everyone learns different it's about the person. Thank you !

No there is no open book when doing a test threw portage.

It was very difficult I thought. I ended up withdrawing and taking it at my school, it was less expectations. I feel like the tests were very though. I think if you are good in CHem then take this online but classroom is much better.... Good luck bu...

Just be yourself, show them your interested and caring and want to learn as much as possible. Don't be the know it all durning clinical. Practice your skills, speak professionally and you will do great! Good luck!

I don't think it will add anything to help get you into nursing school. I think experience as a CNA will help you in your classes. I noticed people who weren't CNA's before nursing school had a little bit of a harder time adjusting coming into clini...

I absolutly think it's worth it. I have learned so much! Can you take it threw your local Red Cross?

I was curious how the Ethics course is threw Portage learning. What is required, is it all multiple choice or do you have to write papers? Just curious because I am taking 3 courses right now but I need this one too before the fall.
