🚨 NCLEX testing 2025 Crash Course Notes: The Ultimate High-Yield Study Guide 🚨

Hey, future nurse! I want to share something personal with you—why I created the 2025 NCLEX Crash Course Notes and how they became the ultimate high-yield study guide I wish I had when I was preparing for my NCLEX.

💡 My NCLEX Journey: Overwhelmed & Stressed!

I remember the exact moment it hit me.

I was sitting at my desk, surrounded by mountains of notes, textbooks, and practice questions. My study planner was a mess, and my brain was fried from trying to cram every little detail about lab values, pharmacology, and prioritization.

The NCLEX felt like an impossible mountain to climb. I was constantly second-guessing myself:
❌ Am I studying the right things?
❌ What if I fail?
❌ Why is everyone saying SATA questions are so hard?!

I needed something simple, concise, and straight to the point—a study guide that would cut through the fluff and give me ONLY the information I needed to pass.

But I couldn’t find one.

So, I decided to create it. 

📖 How These Crash Course Notes Were Born

I started by going through hundreds of NCLEX questions, breaking down the patterns in the most frequently tested topics. I highlighted all the areas the NCLEX loves to ask about—prioritization, delegation, lab values, medication calculations, and critical thinking.

Then, I used every trick I knew to make the information stick:
✔ Mnemonics to simplify complicated topics (hello, "VEAL CHOP" for fetal heart rate!).
✔ Bullet points to eliminate the overwhelming paragraphs of information.
✔ Quick-reference tables to make reviewing on-the-go effortless.

I even tested these notes on my friends who were also struggling with NCLEX prep, and they all said the same thing:

"This is EXACTLY what I needed!"

That’s when I knew I had to share this with other nursing students.

💡 Why I Created the 2025 NCLEX Crash Course Notes

I didn’t want anyone else to feel as lost and overwhelmed as I did.

These notes are for the nursing student who doesn’t have time to waste—for the student who needs a no-BS, high-yield review that actually helps them think like a nurse and pass the NCLEX with confidence.

I built this guide to:
✅ Give you the most tested NCLEX topics in an easy-to-digest format.
✅ Help you prioritize and delegate like a pro (because NCLEX LOVES to test this!).
✅ Teach you test-taking strategies that actually work (goodbye, trick questions!).
✅ Save you from wasting time on irrelevant content.
