I suggest you guys get the official "CRNE Prep Guide" by the Canadian Nurses Association... You can check thier website at www.cna-aiic.ca
Its a bit expensive but its worth it...

Try to contact lenjoy about the CRNE. She is negotiating with Elsevier about distribution of the book in the Philippines. But she needs to have a number of bookings for this to push through. try using the search option as she posted a thread on this.

I texted the sales manager of the elsevier last week. He told me that I should contact c and e for they have the title regarding this matter. I called up the main office and I was informed the book is still not here. MAybe on the first week of March..... BUT............ They only have one copy. She said that the concern people still need to review the book if its marketable or not! Then they will reprint it as paperback. I think they already have contract with the elsevier in US regarding the reprinting making it cheaper to buy. I was really shocked because the negotiation I had with elsevier was not followed! I thought they'll send us 10 original copies from US and that is what we're going to buy... If this is approved, I think the book will be available in all C and E bookstore nationwide!
Ok... here I go! Bad news for everyone and still good news for those not in a hurry.
Just called up C and E. I talked with the same personnel. Ms. M. I was just checking the status of the book if its already available. She said that the 1 copy they've asked for was not included on the shipment that arrived, contradicting to what she told me almost 2 weeks ago.
I told her that whatever is happening now, is not the transaction I had with elsevier because we were expecting 10 copies by march. She said that Ms. S adviced them to get only one copy, etc. Now, they're telling me that the book (the 1 copy) is not yet shipped and that they've just ordered it! ANd if someone is in a hurry to get a copy, they might just order it and use the faster way to get it here with which is more expensive!
And if ever one day that the 1 copy arrives, they still need to scan the content if its marketable or not and reprint it.
I really hate it when the transaction is not followed!!! :angryfire:angryfire
Follow up....
Just called C and E again because someone told me that the book is already here and it is being process for market. I dont know if I'm just being fooled by that person or his telling the truth so I confirm it to the main branch and Ms. M was very surprised where that news came from! hmp! His not a good source! Anyway.....
The manager of C and E called and will do an indent order. They'll fax me the info maybe after an hour or tomorrow because I still have a duty. This would be a bit expensive. Maybe Thank you... and God bless....
Thank you... and God bless....

hi lenjoy03, I am also interested in purchasing a CRNE prep guide.
Did you find success in bringing it to the philippine market already? I was asking this because the last post was a few months ago. Please give me an update regarding your efforts in bringing this book here in the philippines. Thanks in advance!
My cousin brought in a CRNE Prep Guide. Please get in touch with me . I am in Manila.
I was negotiating with the C and E publishing since Feb. Last March, they told me that the book for reviewing in on its way here. Then 2 weeks after, I called them up, the person I talked to told me that there's been a problem and they'll call me when the book is available. Here comes April, May, June and July. Its almost August! You know what they told me? That the elsevier has changed management and that its pending so the book was not ship because of this and that..... I was very upset because they once told me that the book was already shipped and that its coming by the end of the month! Then they're telling me its still pending! I'm really tired of their excuses since February! I asked some RN few months ago if they're willing to do an indent order. Too bad some of them are unprofessional so I wasn't able to continue with the transaction.
Well then.. that's the bad news! I have to look for another way again! If you guys can help me out here and give info, feel free to contact me....
