Published

I am starting NC1 now and I was just wondering what everyone else is using to prepare for the exam. I have the tcn mod but I would like some info on other sources. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Specializes in cardiology, psychiatry, corrections.

Get a good Fundamentals textbook (Barbara Kozier's 7th ed. is a good one) a good Med/Surg book, and a pharmacology book. After 10/1 EC changed some of the curriculum, so I'm not sure which texts they are recommending, but you definitely should get at least those three. You can find them used on Amazon or Half.com. Forget the community and critical thinking books; they are a waste of money and space on your bookshelf.
