The Princeton Review CD

Does it come with a rationale for each and every answer?

Yes

I had the Princeton Review but didn't like it at all. I know that some of the answers they said were correct were not...there was a question that asked what type of toy should be given to an infant...and the correct response (according to them) was marbles! I tossed it after that.

I took the Kaplan review course and used their question trainer CD and book. I felt like it really prepared me for the NCLEX, in fact, a lot of the questions on the practice trainer were very similar to questions I took on the actual test. I would have felt much less confident walking out of the test had I not taken the Kaplan course.

Good luck!

Oh, and by the way, I passed w/75 questions on the first try, so I really think Kaplan works!

I found they same thing and that was also the last time I used it. I haven't use Kaplan, but I have used everything else... Are you a navy nurse? How do you like it. I was in the Navy before but was in Special Warfare...
