Since there is a large demand of nurses all around the world.  Nursing review centers are everywhere throughout the Philippines.  Some established review centers tend to branch out to different parts of the country just to accommodate the demand of service.  One good example is RA Gapuz Review Center. They have review centers located in Manila, Baguio, Dagupan, Cebu, Davao, Bacolod, Cabanatuan, Ilo-ilo and Dasmarinas Cavite.  Another would be Merge Review Center which is located in Manila and has expanded to Baguio and all the way to General Santos.  Carl Balita Review Center on the other hand is planning to have a different strategy on expanding its services. It is through online review.

With these branches made available to some parts of the Philippines, BSN graduates who lives in those distant areas benefit the most.  But the question to ponder is, are they providing the same quality of service they are providing in their main review site?   We sure hope so.

In-house review is offered by a college or university wherein at the end of a four-year course, senior students may opt to attend (or to some required) the in-house review in order to gauge the theoretical entry-level competency before facing the actual nursing board exam.  Schools tend to gauge the readiness of their students by having their own review program with evaluation exams and PRE-board examination.

To Attend, or Not?

Students usually have second thoughts in attending their in-house review program(if it is not mandatory).  There are several reasons why they opt not to attend. One is that in-house reviews are sometimes conducted on the last semester of their senior year and students are on the process of completing all cases, passing the last semestral subects and applying for the nurse licensure examination all at the same time.  Another reason is that, some students tend to join other friends in reviewing outside their own schools.  This is a new environment that makes them more inclined to review.  The effectiveness of advertising and boastful percentage passing of outside review centers make a student enroll to them rather than spending money to their in-house review.

Conclusion:

Students tend to enroll to outside review centers rather than attending their in-house review with their own personal reasons.  The effectiveness of the review centers serve as tough competition for a school’s in-house review program.

Let us first dissect the word “REVIEW.” Re is to Return, or again, or to go back, and VIEW is to look. So, combining these words would come up with the idea of recalling what has been viewed or learned. After graduating from a particular course, a student may consider enrolling in a review center to recall lessons, to cope up with few missed topics and to enhance and what has been taught in school. There lots of review centers in the Philippines and one dilemma is where to enroll?

Different Review Centers, Different Programs?

There are different programs for different review centers. One program is a lecture-typed program wherein there would be a lecturer and a class (its not that hard to understand). Another would be a test-based program, wherein you will be given a test paper, answer the set and then rationalize the correct answers the next day. Module-based is another program wherein the reviewee is given a module and then try to research and answer it for a given period of time.

Dilemma Galore?

But of course! you don’t know where to enroll. Here’s the tip, the first thing you should do is ask yourself which program is best suited for you. Can you handle sitting and listening to a half day or whole day lecture? Or would you rather stay at home and study the given materials. It is really up to you on how you would choose a review center, so CHECK WHAT PROGRAM IS BEST FOR YOU.

Word of Mouth

One marketing strategy of some review centers is by sending  a representative to schools to explain their particular programs, boast achievements and lure students in enrolling to their centers.  Once you have a review center in mind, you can ask your classmates, friends and people from other batches what they think of this review center. It is not bad to ask every now and then.

Site Visit and Decision Making

Lastly, is for you to do a site viewing. Examine the place where it is located.. is it comfortable for you when commuting? Are there enough parking spaces? Are classrooms clean and conducive to learning? does your pencil touch the shoulder of your seat mate.  These are some factors you have to consider in doing your site visit.

After double checking all necessary information of the review center (including the cost), it is time for you to decide which review center is the best. Your decision should be based on your own review needs as assessed by you and NOT by the choice of your friends or anyone else.
