2.0 out of 5 stars Did not help me much, February 28, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Core Curriculum for Progressive Care Nursing, 1e (American Ass Critical Nurses) (Paperback)
I bought this book for the PCCN exam and for general reference. It was not helpful to me personally. I did not think it is detailed enough. I used another book meant for CCRN exam and passed the exam 1st time with an excellent score. I believe, one should read the contents before buying ( use the "look inside" option on amazon. It helps ) It might be helpful to some and not for others.

But, for all those who like this book. It is more afforadble to buy through amazon rather than our oraganization.

4.0 out of 5 stars PCCN study tools, June 7, 2011
This review is from: Core Curriculum for Progressive Care Nursing, 1e (American Ass Critical Nurses) (Paperback)
Used this book as a main resource in studying for the PCCN exam and found it to be a great help! Each section is in bullet form making it easy to focus on the important information expected on the test. It contains numerous charts, diagrams and tables that can be referred to as a quick reference and help memorize key information. The only thing it lacks is practice questions, but still proved to be an excellent study resource!
