Summary: Excellent Oncology Certification study book
Review: I used this book, and the Study Guide for The Core Curriculum for Oncology Nursing textbook, as well as the OCN 3 exam booklets from ONS, and did really well on the OCN Exam that I took in Washington D.C., April 17, 2002. This book helped me so much on being able to pass that test. It is set up exactly like the OCN Test Blueprint. I would study and work my way through each chapter and then test myself in the study guide book, and then I would test myself on one of the OCN Exam booklets, and then I would go through the book again.

Summary: You can pass the test
Review: The Oncology nurse certification test is not an easy one, but this book can help. You know all of the drugs and side effect management stuff, but who remembers all those statistics and obsure disease symptoms?? If you are taking the test, this book is great!

Summary: You MUST buy this to pass the certification test
Review: Truly this is your bible for passing the National Oncology Certification Test. This and the Q and A study guide and some practice tests directly from ONS were all I used to take the test this fall. All of us at my work place who used these same materials passed. You really don't need anything else. The only problem is the book is presented in an outline form which makes for difficult reading for pleasure's sake alone but good for studying. Also a good reference book.
