Which publishing company?

Nursing Students Online Learning

Published

Ok, so I know plenty of people have passed and did well without using any of the publishing company materials. I think I might want to use one because I think I may need some extra direction - and I always am more successful when I have a focused, organized way of manipulating the material. I have only taken health safety and honestly I did not end up studying for it and got a B, but I know the other exams are going to be more challenging for me.

So if someone who has experience with the publishing companies wouldn't mind giving me some recommendations that would be wonderful. I have visited the websites and they do not provide as much information as I would like.

This is what I think I need:

A workbook format (can be paper - but computer based is even better) that goes through the material where I have to find the answers in the textbook or other sources. A very organized approach to the material - I tend not to be very organized and need help in that area. I also am easily distracted, so really need the info to be broken up nicely. Also, it needs to be something where I can pick it up and do an hour here and there and go right back to where I left off. I also, would like some sort of tracking tool so I can see where I am - like a visual chart of what I have accomplished and how much more I have to study to go through all of the material.

I know I am kind of specific and guides that would work best for me may not exist, but maybe someone here may have some experience with some of these materials.

Thanks for your help

RUE has also helped me---Im doing it the paper way through RUE. I use the texts, Quick Reference Guide and Workbooks--for the past 2 Ive also bought Study Group 101 for some extra study aids and practice questions though. I think after all I ended up paying around 4-5K for all of my modules....kinda makes me sick thinking about it...BUT I do agree that they prepare you well...
