Saunders vs HESI NCLEX-RN books

[corgimomRN2b]

Hi all!

I have the 4th Edition Saunders book and the HESI NCLEX-RN review books. Which do you think would be the best to utilize or do they both offer good studying opportunities? I just graduated 5/16 and plan on taking my boards in July.

Thanks so much!

i like saunder too but do the questions appear to be a little more easier than hesi?

[FUTURE_RN2B09]

were you going to try and send the HESI notes through a private thread?

Not really to me the HESI was I don't want to say "EASY" but doing the que. helped and refreshed my memory....remember to read the question 2ce before even looking at the answer one word can throw the whole thing off

Congrats!

I graduate in Dec.,almost everyione in my class reviews with the Saunders. The Hesi is good for review but the Saunders is more comprehensive. I LOVE the disk that comes w/ the Saunders. You can practice questions and get rationale right after. I really like it when your burnt out studing. It is excellent. Good luck

Is this the Saunder's Edition that everyone is referring to? I'm a pre-nursing (RN) student and I'd like to get good buys on some of my test prep books now, so when I start my program I have them ready.

It's just been a little confusing finding the words HESI in an exam review book title, connected with Saunders. I saw this on amazon, but it looks outdated. Though, its $70 and I've read from several people that they recall the book being $70.

Let me know if anyone suggests these books, or if not, could you reply with the link to the books you do recommend? Thank you!!

I would go with the Saunders Comprehensive review 4th Edition

if you have good background during your College days,All the Basic Principle is those coupled with the New additional nursing knowledge.i.e.(A.K.A) in-Depth Study in Medical/Surgical Paradigm. Just don't deviate to the Basic and General Prnciples YOU will never GET LOST! Its a Matter of Understanding the Book!!,the only thing we don't have the Nerve to read LONG...hours of reading and its Tiresome! When reading you have to be always Stress-Free as much as possible,It Helps!

Used Saunders as my review book & pretty much gave me a good idea how the NCLEX would be.
