This review is from: Davis's NCLEX-RN Review (Book ) [With CDROM and Prac Computer Disk W/ Questions] (Paperback)

I am currently instructing graduates students for an NCLEX Review. I have reviewed twelve text books and have chosen Davis's for the basis of my outline. It is concise, clear and well written. The book is divided into clinical specialties which is how most college programs are stuctured making the review reflect how the student learned the content to begin with. Each chapter ends with review questions specific to the content reviewed. The end of the book has eleven practice exams from vaious state colleges. The CD rom has another 545 practice questions that differ from the book. When I took my own NCLEX exam I used a comprehensive review textbook similar to this and another text with over 1000 multiple choice questions.

This review is from: Davis's NCLEX-RN Review (Book ) [With CDROM and Prac Computer Disk W/ Questions] (Paperback)

This book is very intimidating to read. The type looks terrible and it is bad on your eyes.It looks like a bunch of mumbo jumbo. You will totally fall in a dead sleep trying to study this or else think thoughts in your head. The Davis Drug guide is awesome so I thought a Davis review would be he bomb also, NOT! The best Nclex books so far and I have 7 of them is the Saunders (excellent guide and money back gu) and the Lipponcott (above average) so try those first before looking elsewhere....
