During the NCLEX preparation class, our instructors work with each student individually to answer questions as they study. For the areas where a student needs extra help, teachers will walk them through example case studies and give personalized feedback.

NCLEX Preparation Starts On Day 1

From the first day of general education classes in our program, students are introduced to critical-thinking processes and concepts that will prepare them for the NCLEX-RN. The core of the NCLEX is clinical judgment, which combines critical-thinking skills, data analysis, active listening, and patient observation to provide quality medical care.

Arizona College of Nursing has designed our nursing curriculum to include clinical judgment training in every class that students take. Our instructors help students to utilize their critical-thinking skills as they work through patient scenarios and case studies.

Our extensive clinical judgment training gives students the skills necessary to pass the NCLEX-RN exam and succeed in the nursing field.

What Our BSN Program Students Say

Quote Icon

Arizona College was incredibly helpful in preparing us for NCLEX. Throughout our nursing program, we had to answer NCLEX-style questions that prompted us to use clinical judgment. ATI’s 3-day workshop was also beneficial. Happy to say that all of the students in my nursing cohort passed the NCLEX!
