RN Marlon failed the NCLEX twice using other prep programs before finding success with the NCLEX Strategies for Success Program. He credits the A-ADPIE nursing process breakdown, question phrasing examples, and weekly accountability check-ins for helping him pass on his third attempt.

All right, so after you've completed the NCLEX Strategies for Success program, and congrats again for getting your nursing license, um, can you just let me know a little bit about your NCLEX journey and what led you up to seeking me out to help you pass the NCLEX?
Well, my NCLEX journey Started out, completed my Bachelor of Science, and there were programs that the school offered, and I probably will not name those programs, but I've tried that. I also tried a couple other programs that came highly recommended, but you you know, I was not successful. So I went online and I was just doing like research to find out, you know, other people who was not successful and what they did. And I saw your name came across on All Nurses. So I said, you know, let me just reach out to you, get some information, see what the program was about. And after talking to you, I mean, I think that was the best money I spent because—
Awesome.
Yes. If it wasn't for you, I think that I would still be here. I would be hairless. I'd pull all the hair out.
Well, I'm so happy that you found me on All Nurses. And as we mentioned before, I've been writing for All Nurses for a while, so that has gotten some traffic and some attention there, which is really great. It's a wonderful platform. They have all kinds of helpful information. For nursing students, graduates, professional nurses alike. So All Nurses is definitely great. So, okay, so you've completed my program, you've passed the NCLEX, you now have your registered nurse license. Again, congratulations, this is so exciting. I want you to think about how satisfied you are with the program from start to finish, and we're gonna put it on a 5-point scale where 1 is you're not satisfied and 5 is you're extremely satisfied. How would you rate the experience, and what you've learned from my NCLEX Strategies for Success program?
Well, I would give it a 5 because a lot of stuff that I would miss, like the nursing process, you broke that down, the A-ADPIE, you know, stuff like that. You give examples of how NCLEX could ask the same question in a different way, but it would be two different answers. And that was some of the stuff that I think I was missing. Another thing was that NCBSN study plan. I think that was a great help because some things that I forgot or I didn't think was important, going through that, I picked up on a lot of stuff that I was lacking. So I went ahead and I did some research and the rest is history.
Awesome. So if you were to say one specific thing you enjoyed about the entire process, the coaching, mentoring, tutoring, the content in the program, whatever it was, what is the one thing that you enjoyed about the program overall?
I mean, whenever I felt overwhelmed and I would reach out to you, you were always there to try and calm down. Okay, we can talk to it. The biggest thing is a lot of these programs, you have no one to reach out to. And with you, I was able to contact you, got a hold of you. You were able to calm me down and get back on track. Another good thing was the reminders each week. I would get a reminder like, listen, get back on track, you know, you're slipping. And I think that kept me on, you know, the up and up. So I was leaving studying and doing other stuff. But once I got that reminder, I was like, I got to get back studying.
Awesome. Yeah, it's so important that we have accountability partners, right? And I've even explained, even me as a professional, I even need an accountability partner to keep me on track. And so that's something that I really enjoy doing for my clients. So again, thank you, Marlon, so much for trusting me to help you with your NCLEX prep needs. And I look forward to helping more people develop strategies for success. So be sure to send them my way, okay?
