Best Med-Surg Study Guides?

Published

Hi All,

Med-Surg is next semester and the textbooks, as you know, are thick enough to be used as lethal weapons.

What is the best study guide out there to use as an adjunct for reviewing and figuring out key information?

I'm looking at:

the Herst Review,

the Lippincot Review, and

the Nursing Demystified Review.

thoughts? I hate to order and return, but they aren't exactly on the shelves at my local B&N.

The Reviews and Rationales series pop up a lot, but (at least this semester) they were too basic for what my program wanted. I used the series "....made ridiculously simple" (they are primarily for med school review) for patho (another book too thick to read carefully and keep up!), and it was perfect for what we are required to know, but as they are not tailored to nursing, I'm out of luck for med surg :(.

thanks so much all!

thanks all!

The Saunders NCLEX book it's quite good if you like outlined succinct information.
