My name is Lisa Chou, and I've been teaching NCLEX prep for over a decade and counting. You can rely on me as a resource and as a tutor to help you prep the best you can for this extremely challenging test. I'm the author of NCLEX Simplified and have helped thousands of students to pass their test. My nurses are all over the world doing all kinds of fantastic work, and it's all because I gave them these tips to pass their test.

In this course, you'll learn how to study the right way- maybe for the first time. You'll also gain some knowledge on the test itself, write a study plan, make flash cards, and have a list of study resources ready to go. I address the mental aspects of the test, including some anxiety you may be feeling and how to conquer it so that it doesn't get in the way on test day.

You CAN conquer this test- let me help!
