Description:

A useful review tool in preparing for the NCLEX-RN examination, this guide is based on the latest NCLEX-RN test plan. In an outline format, it comprehensively reviews all areas of nursing, including maternity, pediatric, medical-surgical, psychiatric, and gerontologic. More than 4,000 practice questions are included in the book/CD-ROM package, along with comprehensive rationales and test-taking strategies. * Text and accompanying CD-ROM provide a total of 4,000 practice questions - more than any other comprehensive review book. The CD-ROM includes all 1,800 questions from the book, plus over 2,200 more. * Every question includes a correct answer, rationales for all responses, test-taking strategy, level of cognitive ability, integrated process, category of client needs, and reference to a major nursing text. * Alternate item format questions, including fill-in-the-blank, multiple-response, and illustration questions, provide exposure to these new formats on the ! NCLEX-RN exam. * A comprehensive exam consists of 265 questions with content areas in the same percentages as the current NCLEX-RN test plan. * Pharmacology is emphasized, with 13 pharmacology chapters, a medication and intravenous calculation chapter, and a pediatric medication calculation chapter. * Pyramid to Success sections provide an overview of each chapter plus a focused guide

    A ggod review though questions are not really in NCLEX format ( they are recall questions rather than application questions). I used this book to study for my last semester in nursing school and it was very helpful.

    A good book, helpful but preparing for the NCLEX you need much more.For foreign nurses who have studied abroad. I would suggest if I may The Kaplan review--it cost money but it has an a great library audio as wel as visual and the prepartion is through . Of course personal effort is required as well but following the guidlines , using the library as well as taking the test questions on a cd format prepares you well .I know --I did it and passed it on my first try.

    This is a very good book - the only book i used when I study for the nclex, I did not even enroll to any review center, all I have is this, the cd that comes with it and Q&A still a product of Saunders. I am really thankful, I passed the NCLEX at the 75th question within 1 hour and 12 minutes....whew...not bad at all....Thank you saunders....

    This is by far my favorite in-class review book. However, for test preparation I recommend the MedsPub book. It consice and to the point reducing brain overload and additional anxiety! :)

    I am using this book along with the interactive CD-ROM to practice over 4,000 various NCLEX questions. I like the layout of the book...for example, there is a chapter on the cardiovascular system and it includes the pathophysiology, client care, medications...anything you could need to know for the exam. Following each chapter, is a specific section of questions pertinant to the chapter. Great book, I would highly recommend it!!

    I think that Saunders is a wonderful book for test review. I like how the book is divided into sections such as respiratory, peds, cardiac, etc.
