Who We Are
-
We don’t believe in cramming—we believe in understanding.
CB NCLEX’s six-week comprehensive program starts with a ten-day Fast Track that covers the core knowledge most commonly tested on the NCLEX. From there, we build deeper into high-priority topics while strengthening your ability to think critically and prioritize patient care. With individualized support, a detailed syllabus, and real-life nursing scenarios, our approach equips you with the confidence and skills needed to pass the NCLEX and succeed as a nurse.

CB NCLEX began with Cathy’s passion for helping others succeed.
In 2007, she began supporting her coworkers on their journey to becoming registered nurses—one study session at a time. As word spread and results followed, those small study groups grew into a classroom dedicated to students who needed more than a traditional approach, especially those who had failed the NCLEX multiple times.
What sets us apart isn’t just our method, but the heart behind it: understanding each student’s journey and creating a path forward with purpose and care.
Programs
Our Fast Track is a focused, 10-day blast into the core fundamentals most commonly tested on the NCLEX. Designed for students who need a strong reset or refresher, this intensive program breaks nursing concepts down to the basics—without the overwhelm. For $500, you’ll build confidence, strengthen critical thinking, and establish the foundation needed to succeed before moving into deeper NCLEX content.
At CB NCLEX, Back to Basics means mastering the fundamentals before diving deeper. We focus on core nursing concepts, high-yield topics, and clinical reasoning to ensure students build a strong, lasting foundation. This intentional approach transforms how students think—preparing them not just to pass the NCLEX, but to practice as safe, confident nurses.
Get the best of both worlds—speed and understanding. This combo combines our 10-day Fast Track fundamentals intensive with our Back to Basics method to ensure students not only review what’s tested, but truly understand it. Perfect for building confidence, sharpening prioritization skills, and laying the groundwork for NCLEX success.
