TCN Study Guides for LS1-3

I have seen people post about using TCN or other publishing company study guides for these exams. I went to eBay and do not see anything that says what exam the study guide is for. Most seem to be textbooks(?) If you used a helpful study guide please tell me what it is called lol. Yes I have heard of SG101. I did not like it the first few nursing exams I took I felt it was not organized and made more work for myself than just reading the book. I would just a clear summary of info just to review with. Thanks!

Edit to add: they say nursing concepts 1-6 and are all published 2006 was the most recent. Is this right? What would LS1-3 be?

Im using studygroup1 01 and I find them amazing and very organized. They follow the syllabus and save a lot of time from flippin thru text books. Plus there is like a thousand questions and answers you can go thru. They also have audio that I listen too on my way to work and back that really helps. So far all As and Bs so I'm sticking with them. There was another one on ebay but I dont remember who its by but it was atrocious such bad grammar and spelling errors and password access and its dated like 2005 and it wont work on mac. It was a total waste of money so I just thru the cd away. studygroup 101 all the way!

Those guides would be out of date then. As TCN is not affiliated with or endorsed by EC the study guides may be neither accurate nor current
