JUNE 4-DAY NCLEX-RN REVIEW

Hello everyone,
I am cordinating the paperwork for the "highly recommended" Davis Nclex review being held at San Francisco State University on June 3, 4, 5, & 6, 2008. Unfortunately, I just received their information (sorry for the late notice) and there is an impending deadline of MARCH 31ST to submit registration forms and money. We must have at least 10 people to sign up by March 31st in order to secure a rate of $200 per person otherwise the rate will increase to $250 per person. I have spoken with some 4th semester students who attended this review (about 40 from their class attended) and they really enjoyed the review. They found it helpful in identifying their strengths and weaknesses as this review not only covers testing taking strategies but nursing content.
Davis Nclex review is also offering an online follow up review in January 2009 for those who attend the June 2008 review. They couldn't give me a set price but I was told it would be no more than $100. The review would be offered online for 30 days so students would not have to go back to San Francisco. It think this is a great idea considering most of us will be getting ready to sit for boards in January and this will be a good refresher.

You can go to their website at http://nclex.reviewfornurses.com
for the registration forms and more information regarding their services. Registration forms and payment can be submitted to me or to Judy Lee in the nursing office no later than March 31st at 11am. Please feel free to email me with any questions at hjamyers@yahoo.com.
