Thank you ladies for your help, there are so many books and websites its hard to know which is best. Its all so different from how I was taught in the UK!!! I I really appreciate the advice. Tabitha where are you working or planning to?

Hi there I have posted in introductions and a nice lady suggested that I post here..so here goes I am from the UK and a qualified nurse (I have American parents). I am looking to move to the states to be with family and have signed up to an agency to help with the process. I have been told I have to take the NCLEX exam and have done some considerable reading on this. I would like some advice from some American trained nurses as to what books will benefit me. The agency (which I am already having problems with!) have said I just need one book (theirs of course for a fee) to pass. They sent me on-line test questions and basically told me to keep answering the questions till I get them all right. I do not like the sound of this I really really want to know the theory behind the answers and know why things are done and not just the answer. Pharmacology for instance is hugely different to the UK and your methods in treatment etc. Can any recommend some good books that will give me the background/theory to the information please? Many thanks Cheryl
