Saunders is on sale at Amazon

Published

Just a PSA FYI- I just checked Amazon and the Saunders NCLEX is $24.32. Last time I checked it was about twice that.

Anyway, just wanted to give y'all a heads up.

Hi HiddencatRN I have a question about the Hesi exam and what books you suggested using. I got accepted to Drexel's co-op program. I was reading some of your other posts regarding books to use to prepare for the hesi exam. Now, I saw Saunders comprehensive review and Hogans review and rationales. I noticed that Hogan has review& rationales for pharmacology, mental health, medical surgical, child health, and maternal and newborn. Do you recommend purchasing all of these books? which author is the best?

The HESI book is different than the Saunders and the Reviews and Rationals. I had the R&R Comprehensive and Child Health Nursing, Saunders, Davis' NCLEX book, and the HESI book (Amazon.com: Evolve Reach: Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN Examination, 2nd Edition (9781416047759): HESI: Books). I used the HESI book almost exclusively. I did use R&R for peds some, and looked at questions a little in the R&R comprehensive, but for me, learning content was more helpful than drilling NCLEX style questions. Didn't really use Saunders at all.

But everyone is different- I had classmates who thought the HESI book was useless and loved the other books.

Great thanks for the reply. The less I have to spend on books the better. I will definately invest in those books because learning the material is what's going to help to succeed in nursing. Thanks again hiddencatRN
