Excellent for helping your grades by .. L. Solt (PA)
This book breaks down each system and enables you to focus on specific diseases. The questions are a bit more difficult than typical NCLEX books but they provide excellent rationals. It was extremely helpful during my Med-Surg classes. It enabled me to get a better overall understanding of the different diseases/systems and my grades definately reflected that!

Tests and examinations are the primary method used to challenge one's knowledge of a subject-ask any student. Those who are determined to be successful not only understand this essential fact but gather the tools necessary to develop such skills.


This book is one such tool and worth the investment. It is an excellect resource specifically applied to the nursing student, for developing critical thinking and analysis of test questions; preparation and practice for test taking. The nursing student who absorts and applies the lessons learned in this text will most certainly be successful.

Great Review before taking a test! by .. Y. R. Rodriguez (Cypress, Ca)
This book is great. I like how it is breaken down into sections. What I liked about it is that it's a great reviewer before taking any tests at school. I noticed that some questions were used by some instructors were from this book. Gives you rationales. Always buy a Nclex book or this one with rationales. You learn a lot from them. I give this book an A+, 100% and a positive evaluation!!! 2 Thumbs up!!!
