My students have all used the Saunders review book and have done well with it.

hi Suzanne. I was wondering which saunders review book are you talking about?, 'cause there are so many? I wish if you could give me an idea. thankyou
Unfortunately my copy is still in Bangkok at my office. Any of the Saunder's books are good, as long as they have the CD-ROM with them. Their review is one of the best because it actually goes over each answer with you, and gives you the reasoning behind each choice.
Hope that this helps............
I also have some other review materials that I can forward to you if you want that are on my computer at home. Let me know.

Oh, that would be great! I have Kaplan's book fro NCLEX_ RN, and Mosby's review fro NCLEX-RN, I used both to study for CGFNS, and were really useful.
I'm planning to buy another book to complement these. I'd like to have an advice because the offer is really big. Thank you a lot

I also suggest Saunder's Comprehensive Review for NCLEX-RN. The cover is green. I had tons of NCLEX-RN review materials, but Saunder's is the most organized and easy to follow. It goes by systems (eg: Cardiovascular system, Musculo-skeletal system etc..) In every end of each system is the medication, then practice questions. You won't get lost unlike the other books, they go by nursing concept (eg: medical-surgical, psych, pediatrics etc...) They cover different systems for each nursing concept. I found it easier to study by SYSTEM like the Saunder's. I could focus more. It helped me passed the NCLEX in one shot! GOODLUCK!

Hi Faby , i am using the same marterial that you used for CGFNS and i am taking it next month, is there anything that you found deficient in the two books, if so please let me know if you think there are other marterials that i can use. What percentage does one need in order to pass the Exam? thank you
Hi: I think that the information on Pharmaceuticals is really poor. You should check about this in other books.
There's not a percentage, you need 400 pts, total is 800. But the answers are rated differently. If you take the practice test on the book's CD you'll know what I mean.
Good Luck!!
