To Buy or Not to Buy: MyNursingLab

Published

Hi Nursing Students,

my program recommends (but does not require) the mynursinglab package. I am trying to decide if it's worth the extra $. What are your thoughts? Do you find it helpful/valuable? If it wasn't required, and you have it, would you purchase it again?

thanks!

I had to use it and I would not recommend it. It was a terrible program! Just my 2 cents worth!!!

I do all supplements.....it just helps me retain all the information. I'm getting a PrepU for the first time I want to experiment with it and see if it's a good supplement.

To me it didn't fully explain why things were the way they were. Also contradicted itself !

Bought it but didn't find it helpful. Everyone who used it always got ~66% or so on the practice tests/quizzes because we don't cover entire chapters. For that reason alone I don't think it's very helpful. The class a semester a head of me said it was very helpful. To each their own. You may want to wait and see how you do on the first quiz and decide from there if you need more study materials.

I was required to buy it (although we never used it for class). I did some practice stuff on my own and absolutely hates it! Never worked well, contradicted itself, and just wasn't a good program.
