NCLEX Study guide

Book is in great condition and arrived on time. Would buy from this seller again.

Passed NCLEX first time!

This book was so helpful! It was a great book that was easy to follow and included only pertinent information. I passed the NCLEX first time at 75 questions!

Excellent

This book, especially the review question section, is great! The questions are written in a format similar to boards questions and yes, they are just as frustrating!! :-) It really helps you get a feel for the critical thinking that is necessary to answer the questions on boards. I definitely recommend this book to all nursing students studying for boards.

mosby RN-nclex review book

I believe I passed the RN boards by using this review book. It really gives you a good background in diseases and understanding the basics. I would also recommend lippincot and kaplan to pass the boards. It is true what they say you really cannot study per say for the boards, if you understand what CHF is and all the other disease processes you will pass. One thing they do not stress enough in school is in order to pass the boards you need to do a lot of studing on your own aside from what you get in class. Class is just that enough to pass the class, but may not be enough to pass the boards. Best advise I ever got was do 60 questions in any nclex review book 5 days per wk. take 60 min. then on the other two days of the wk. go back and do a through review of those questions, don't just read what the correct answer is, lots of review books like lippincot will also tell you why the other 3 answers were wrong therefore you get 4 questions and answers from 1 question.

Nurses' best exam companion

I felt being taken away from my study room tothe actual clinical setting of the cases mentioned.Facts that usually takes a few days to gather fromnumerous resources are precisely woven togetherin one coherent and comprehensive resource. For anyone taking the CGFNS or the NCLEX, my bestadvice is for him/her to acquire this book and seefor themselves how it can transform the mind in toingesting new ideas. It is a friend written in thepages of a book.
