BoardVitals™

Most students are convinced the best way to prepare for the NCLEX is running through practice question after practice question so there are zero surprises on test day. While it may be impossible to anticipate every question the computer adaptive model of the NCLEX will throw out, it is possible to provide students relevant practice with NCLEX-style items to increase their confidence as they prepare. We call that BoardVitals.

With BoardVitals, students and faculty can build customized quizzes focusing on specific content areas or assess their comprehensive knowledge through an adaptive quiz. BoardVitals should be used on a consistent basis, and in tandem with other products, throughout a student’s entire NCLEX prep timeline.

BoardVitals features:

• Over 3,500 RN and 1,600 PN NCLEX-style questions, including alternate format items
• Deep rationales that thoroughly review concepts using art and visuals to help with understanding and retention
• Vital Concept feature to help students connect concepts to practice
• The ability for both students and faculty to choose question difficulty level, question status, subjects, number of questions and timed or untimed mode.
• Six months of access starting 120 days prior to graduation

Students can build quizzes in three modes:

• Test Mode

Answers and rationales are disabled to provide a medium-intensity testing environment.

• Study Mode
