la charity is the author of the book prioritization, delegation and assignment. C&E bookstore is not anymore selling the book.

McLovin' · Dec 11, 2008

I think 'twas titled "Prioritization/Delegation" under Mosby publications. The book consists of five authors (i think) and La Charity was one of 'em. Funny thing here is that book was just given to me! I never had any idea about the existence of that book! Who wrote it, what does it offer, how good the book is - nothing! :chuckle It somehow just "dropped from the sky", in a manner of speaking.. And it was an absolute blessing!

You guys can email me for more reviewers/nclex info. I'll help you in anyway I can.

GOD BLESS!

well the thing that you must be focusing is on the weak areas that you need to study more. the things that inspire me or motivate me more is thinking about my family and for my future. it will come to a point that you will feel exhausted but dont let it happen as it will have a drastic effect on your performance on the exam. take it slowly and more surely. i took my exam here at PI and passed it on first attemp. Goodluck on your review and exam. :loveya:

bought the saunders book but i'm having trouble concentrating. i am so screwed.

dasmith · Dec 20, 2008

Perhaps that's related to anxiety. Focus on reducing your anxiety and you'll be able to continue studying. You know you can do this. You're well equipped and capable.

^thanks. hahaha i think i got overwhelmed by the size and length of the saunders book plus i've got a bunch of q & a softwares installed in my laptop, and mp3 reviewers uploaded in my ipod. plus i suck at time management. i am so in the wrong field
