5.0 out of 5 stars Very worth the money, July 5, 2000

This review is from: Mosby's Comprehensive Review of Dental Hygiene (Paperback)

I found the sample questions and rationales invaluable on the national board (passed in the hight 90's), yes the chapters are long and dry, but if you only do the tests, you WILL get you money's worth. We are here to learn are we not?

4.0 out of 5 stars Mosby's Comprehensive Review of Dental Hygiene, May 18, 2000

This book is not as bad as the previous review. Most of students in my class have this book and we agree that it's very helfull. There are a lot of information in the book appeared in the latest National Board exam in March. The authors of this bood just need to update the changes of recent NB exam. I personally believe that the person who wrote the previous commen was the same person who wrote the commen for the book title "Review of Dental Hygiene" by Debralee McKelvey Nelson.
