   Hi! I have heard that it is good to purchase an NCLEX review book. I plan on purchasing either the Saunder's NCLEX review or Prentice Hall NCLEX review and begin practice questions on day 1. Will you be attending the Day RN program? Heather

   TEAS practice test 4 vs.5

   hcook08 replied to greatpyr_mom's topic in Pre-Nursing
