Review: But it is better if you can put it all Q & A in CD for realistic simulation with random question which I could appreciate most of it.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: NCLEX-RN
Review: I don't known whether this is correctly to prepare for NCLEX-RN. Mosby's may be better; some one who taken this exam told me.She said Mosby more lively to take this exam.I try to my best. I read this book very day. I want this is best same me.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Written to help you pass NCLEX the first time.
Review: I enjoyed this book because it was written to help students understand the NCLEX-RN test. The questions are designed to test each phase of the nursing process and help the student understand the correct nursing actions to take, depending on which phase you are in. The book is broken into different clinical areas so you can concentrate on your weak area and not spend too much time on areas you are most comfortable with. I have used other books by other authors, but Lippincott's is by far the best because it is the one designed most like the NCLEX. The rationale accompanies both wrong and correct answers so you get a better understanding of the material. The test on disk is also formatted like the CAT test you will see on your testing day. This will help relieve your computer anxiety by allowing you practice before you get to the testing site. This is definitely the book to buy to study for NCLEX-RN. You won't regret purchasing this study aide.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is what you need in passing the CGFNS exam!!!
Review: I have used the CD ROM of this reviewer prior to answering the Official Study Guide of CGFNS and I find it easy to answer. Lippincott Reviewer will greatly help you in correlating answers based on pathophysiology!!!. Buy this book along with NSNA and KAPLAN, I'm sure you can pass your CGFNS!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I pass the NCLEX the first time
Review: I highly recommend this book esp. if you're out of college for more than 5 years because it would refresh all the knowledge you have learn in school.It really helped me analyze the questions and choose the correct answer.The CD rom was helpful too since it was similar with the actual CAT exam and it would give you alot of practice on how to take the NCLEX under pressure.Good Luck and I hope this book would also be your next bestfriend.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THEIR CD IS THE BEST
Review: I passed! Using this book and the Kaplan. I used this book, mainly the CD. It's got tons of questions, lot's I found on my NCLEX! I would read the book in bed at night and do the cd during the day, it's got a lot of info you need. The Kaplan is good because it breaks down how to read the question, and how to determine just what the heck it's asking, it would have been good to read this for my tests in school!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Allows you to feel prepared
Review: I purchased this book along with a few others however, this one stood out. The disk that came along with it was the best! It allowed you to practice questions using the study guide or the exam mode. Nevertheless, regardless of what mode you chose to study with, the cd gave you rationales to all questions. It also had a drop down caculator and diagrams that you would see on the Nclex. Use this to prepare for the boards and you'll pass, at least I did.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Watch out!
Review: I purchased this book to prepare myself for the NCLEX-RN and was very disappointed with the results. I took MANY of the practice tests on the CDROM and after completing them I would review the questions the computer said I had "missed" only to find that the computer was marking them as the correct answers when I reviewed them. The book says you must score 75% on their practice tests in order to pass boards, and all my results were in the 74-76% range, but with many of the "incorrect" answers ending up being "correct" it did not help me do anything except be very stressed out! I took the Mosby's online practice and scored in the 94th percentile--a more true reflexion of my abilities--I passed boards without any problem, but no thanks to this book.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Helpful practice book, but watch for a few things...
Review: I used this book to study for my finals in nursing school. I noticed that on my final i came across a question very similiar(actually, identicle) to this book. My professor used 5 questions from this review book on the exam.

My problem with this book was a few things. The wording of questions were ackward. For example, "Impending hypoglycemia" measurement. If anyone knows the meaning to "impending" and what the value range is for hypoglycemia is would understand why there is a flaw in how the question and answer do not match up. If anyone thinks differently, let me know. I think the answer given is incorrect or in the least misleading--needlessly.
I recommend Mosby's NCLEX- RN made incredibly easy and Kaplan's NCLEX review instead.
