It it by Patrica Nugent and Barbara Vitale. I bought it today and I have been scanning through it tonight and it looks REALLY helpful. It teaches you how to navigate multiple choice questions and kinda put you in NCLEX mode as far as reading and working through problems. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't care for the Lippencott Incredibly Easy series, it seems to simplify things TOO Much and does not prepare you for real test questions. I also like the Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN. The Saunders is required by my school many of our test questions are similar. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like how they break down answering nclex style test questions. I also bought Dosage Calculations Made Easy because I hate math and it's very helpful. I plan on getting the rest of the Made Easy books later..as I go along in the program. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
