The book was TOO MUCH to read and legit understand, and my grades were showing it! Because of these videos my classmates showed me, my grades went from 74% to 85%+! They really do help you understand and break things down for you. If you haven’t watched any, go see for yourself! Can’t wait to watch more for OB, I’m going to need all the help I can get! Thank you for creating this spectacular way to study!

This past Friday I retook my Maternity Hesi and this time, I decided for my last week of Holiday break to just watch all of his OB videos. During my exam, I could literally see/hear him going over different areas as I was answering my questions. I am proud to say that with Mike’s help I received a score of 928 on my Maternity Hesi! You’re the best Mike, thanks for all you do!
Jay Brownen
BEST EVER!! I failed my Exit HESI with a 627 spent $$ on Hurst and uWorld. I decided to use simplenursing and I PASSED MY EXIT with a 1047!!! Mike makes it so easy to understand and his study method for retention was on point. I didn’t know I was studying the wrong way until I saw his video !! I RECOMMEND THIS TO EVERYONE!!! Do not hesitate this will save you during and after nursing school.

After failing the first time.. I felt like a failure. After finding simple nursing on my social media and looking at some of their content gave me the inspiration to continue my journey. I begin looking up all their videos and oh boy they are amazing at simplifying some of the disease process I was struggling with. I passed the nclex pn with 85 questions in 2 hrs!! It worth the purchase. I rather pay the 150 than the 300 hundred to retake it Thank you guys so much!

Rianne Gee
I just want to say thank you. Nursing school wasn’t easy for anyone and I can attest to that. I wanted to say that your videos were very insightful and helpful in guiding me throughout nursing school and studying for the NCLEX®. Everything was broken down simply and made easier to understand and for that I cannot thank you enough!
