After not passing the NCLEX-RN twice, I am happy to say I have finally passed the NCLEX-RN on the third try, all thanks to Maria! Maria is the only person who really made sure to tailor my NCLEX review sessions to my needs, so that I only focused on my weak spots. During our first meeting, Maria was very thorough and assessed where my weak spots were in terms of content, and she assessed how I was answering questions so she could give me guidance on where I needed to improve.

Susan L.

11 NCLEX lessons

I came to Megan after my NCLEX, failing at 75 questions, discouraged and frustrated with my lack of success with standardized tests such as Hesi and now NCLEX. First and foremost, she knows her stuff--the MedSurg & nursing clinical content and how the NCLEX testmakers think. Initially I believed that I needed a better grasp of the content, but very quickly I realized that test-taking strategies were critical.
