Several of a nursing student's classmates have enrolled in an NCLEX-PNÆ review course that will take place over the following weekend
The student is considering joining them, but is unsure whether the course is worthwhile, both in terms of time and money. Which characteristic of the course should prompt the student to avoid enrolling in the review course?
A) The course will be presented by DVD with an instructor accessible by e-mail.
B) The organizers of the course are practical nurses who work in acute care.
C) The course has testimonials from individuals who have previously taken it.
D) The course is structured around the Category of Client Needs.
Ans: A
Feedback:
A course that is offered by recordings, with no instructor present, is not likely to be a worthwhile exercise. Involvement by LP/VNs, testimonials by satisfied participants, and the integration of the Category of Client Needs are all potential merits of a review course.
