My name is Jennifer and I took your online review. I am very happy to say I passed!!!! This is my fourth try and I wish I would have known about your review the first time I took the test. I would have benefited on ALL levels. I used your study guide and all of your test taking strategies. I was extremely nervous but tried to stay positive throughout the whole test. I got ALL 265 questions and was there for a whopping 5 hours and 50 minutes!!
I can't say thank you enough!! All of the hard work was worth it!!
Thanks again,Jen
We have never met, but I enrolled in your online review several months ago. I am writing to say Thank You!!! My name is Samantha and I took your review after failing the NCLEX RN 3 times! The first 2 times, I had the full 265 questions. Third time, I had 187. This past time, I PASSED with 76 questions! I I owe it, in huge part, to the Hurst review. A friend from work recommended it to me and I am so glad she did! The videos were helpful, informative, and interesting to listen to. You guys do a great job of going over core content, and most everything you guys covered in the review...I had on the exam. I can't thank you enough!!
Sincerely,
Samantha
I graduated in 1991 from an international nursing school. I took the board the first time after taking one of those (Other NCLEX reviews) and I failed. I heard about Hurst review, attended a live review, studied the material really good and got the supplemental review online. I took the NCLEX again and passed with 75 questions. Thanks to you, I did not only pass but I also learned how to think in a totally different way. You are a great nurse and teacher; I recommend Hurst review to anyone and everyone interested in taking the NCLEX. Sincerely,
Fatin Mangold.
I just wanted to say thank you to Marlene and the Hurst family. I did not pass the first time, and I was nervous the 2nd time taking it, but the only shining light was my confidence on what I learned in the Remediation program. The remediation program helped me to understand what I needed to know in order to pass the NCLEX the second time. I got 265 questions the first time. The second time I got 194 questions with 47 minutes to spare. I walked out of the testing center scared out of my mind, but also had a glimmer of hope that I did really good. Thank you Marlene, I heard your voice throughout each question that I answered. I am going to spread the word on how Hurst Review was my success in passing the NCLEX. You're right Marlene, knowing the core content is what you need to pass the test :) Thank you so much,

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to say "thanks!" I graduated from a two year associate nursing program. I took the NCLEX twice and failed. I was a bit taken aback, to say the least. I've worked as an EMT for 3 years and have seen and done a lot during that time. I was at a loss. I ponied up some cash, signed up for the Hurst Review online, and spent the next several weeks watching the videos, and filling out my workbook. I took the Q Review tests several times, and I read through the information in the Hurst Review Test-Taking Strategies book. I took the NCLEX for the third time two days ago, and found out this morning that I passed!
The information presented in the Hurst Review is extremely well put together, and every section ties in neatly with the things you've learned in earlier sections. I was able to go into the testing center, and confidently choose answers for almost every question presented. I would (and will) recommend Hurst Review to any and everyone I know who is preparing for the NCLEX. Thanks again, and keep doing what you're doing. It obviously works!

I completed the online Hurst review and found it to be very informative and helpful. The Hurst review helps bring together everything you learned in nursing school and reinforces the hot topics. Just like Marlene says if you know the information she reviews without a doubt or hesitation you will not fail, and I 100% believe this. It is amazing how perfectly condensed the information is, nothing important was left out. Marlene also gives the best test taking tips, that served me well when taking NCLEX. I would highly recommend the Hurst review! I passed NCLEX with 75 questions!

I believe in Hurst Review!!! After failing the NCLEX in July without doing any review at all and just buying some review books, I did some research and decided Hurst would be an excellent resource! The online review worked perfectly with my schedule since I was still working full time..I was able to watch lectures on my days off and using the worksheets really helped!! I learned so much and loved the way Hurst helps you think of concepts, made questions so much easier once I got it!! I'm proud to say that I took the NCLEX yesterday and found out today that I passed!!!!!!! I learned so much and love the way Hurst helps you think of concepts, made questions so much easier once I got it!! Thank you Marlene and Company!

I took the NCLEX-RN Fri and I passed- with flying colors!!!! The first time I took it (and failed) it was so super hard for me. I was so scared when I left this time because of how incredibly easy it was to me after doing your review!!! I was prepared to feel bad!!!!
Also, I believe it was God's will that I failed the first time because your review helped me to assimilate all the info I learned in nursing school. There is no doubt in my mind that lives could have been saved by my doing your review. I didn't really connect everything- I didn't remember any of the signs/symptoms of important deteriorating things- like hypokalemia, etc. Now, I am armed with everything (thanks to you) to really know when my patient is declining. Whereas before your review, I never would've recognized it!!!! Does that make sense? I am just oh so grateful not just for making the NCLEX a cake walk the second time around; but also for giving me the confidence I lacked when I graduated. I'm sure I will be thinking of you for years to come- all your great sayings and easy ways to remember things. I just don't know if you get told often enough: you really changed my life. And I thank you with all my heart. I'm going to be such a better nurse with your review behind me.

I graduated from a LPN course in 1981. I have practiced nursing the entire time since my graduation. Finally, at age 48, I returned to school for my BSN degree. I was fearing the State Boards for the typical reason of "knowing how it goes in the real world...versus..what the book says." I was thrilled to have enrolled in your study review online course. I did EXACTLY what I was told to do in the introduction. I devoted my entire time to the lectures, reviews, and tests. I followed each of the 5 days..then reviewed everything one final time, took a couple days off, and then took my NCLEX exam. I entered the building with confidence, signed in, scanned my palm, received instruction, sat down for the exam, completed 75 questions, scanned my hand, and exited the facility in 40 minutes flat!! And...the most important part...I PASSED!!!
I loved how your site was so easily navigated. You are to be commended on your style of lectures, and the true sincerity of helping nurses pass the NCLEX. Other sites have similar information, but you are genuine in helping others to succeed. I could tell this just isn't a "business" for you.
So, many thanks to you! Without you, and your site, I probably would not have been as confident, or passed as easily as I did.
God Bless You!!!

I would like to thank the hurst family for the support they provided while reviewing for the NCLEX-RN exam. I took the exam last July 23 and passed the exam.Actually, the computer just stopped at number 75. The review gave me the confidence to answer all the questions.I would highly recommend Hurst Review coz it made the review as easy as answering the WHY's of every questions. I didn't have to memorize all the stuff. With the new QREVIEW question bank, answering all the questions and understanding the rationale is a big help for building confidence in answering the NCLEX-RN exam. More power to all the staff, the preceptors and to Ms. Marlene. I know you can help others to pass the exam. May God be with you all.
