Me.

ALL self-study. Study guides and books.

The texts are fine. I don't know against what to compare them - they're nursing texts.

The study guides are pretty useful. I use them solely to find out which chapters to read.

Pay the $60 for the on-line practice tests. Money well spent.

The tests are NCLEX-like. If you test well this program is for you.

No idea yet on clinicals.
