This book separates categories to study weak areas and has a comprehensive test at the end. I did not use the CD; I just put a piece of paper over the answer and answered all the questions on the page and then went over the rationale if I got one wrong. This is the only book I used to prepare for NCLEX and I passed in 75 questions.

I've never written a review of a book before, but I felt myself compelled to write one on this book. I am currently looking for another review book and I can't find one that compares to this Q&A book. The book is actually broken down into sections like the boards. It's not broken down into sections on different systems (resp, cardiovascular, etc.) like most books. Whats the point in studying or practicing questions that are broken down into systems when that is not what the real boards are like? Also the book gives good rational and test taking strategies like eliminate 2&4 because they are similar. Basically this is the best book I've found ... Buy it!!!

I bought several books to prepare for NCLEX, but I liked this book the best. I used other books and my notes from school to review contents, and used this book to practice questions. It does not cover each system one by one like nursing textbooks, but rather the chapters are organized in the NCLEX way (e.g. client needs, safe and effective care environment, health promotion, psychosocial integrity, etc.). I did not use CD as much as I planned at the time of purchase because the characters were small and made my eyes tired. (The characters on real NCLEX were bigger and clearer on the screen than this software.) I did not have any problem with this CD like the other reviewers. The book alone has 1810Qs, and they were more than enough for me. Although this book is thick (about 1 1/2 inches) and heavy, I liked the fact that I could take it to anywhere to study. I recognized several NCLEX questions similar to what I practiced in this book, and I passed in 75Qs!

I love this book it shows the answer next to the question. I use a piece of paper over the answer the answer the question. Check my answer and and read the logic with the question. I believe it is going to be very helpful in taking the NCLEX-RN test.

After taking the Kaplan Course I only used this book to study and I passed in 75 questions. I even had a couple of questions that were exactly the same!! I suggest using the CD since the test is on the computer, and I also believe all the questions that are in the book are on the CD, plus many many more. GOOD LUCK!

Excellent source for NCLEX review!! Contains thousands of questions encompassing every area. The CD, which comes with the text, is awesome if you're the type of person who likes to study using the computer. Only drawback is the questions in the book are not divided by clinical area. However, the CD does nicely classify clinical areas for study and testing. Overall, this book is worth every penny!

This was the only book that I used to prepare for the NCLEX after I graduated from nursing school, and I passed in 75 questions! I only used the CD. I did 100 questions per day for three weeks leading up to my exam. This CD worked great on my Mac!

This is a great book to practice nclex questions with. This book breaks it up into the categories that the acual nclex tests on like client needs, and safety. It's questions are also in a random order just like the nclex, however it doesn't break it up into body systems so it would not be a good book to use with your class material. (it you are looking for one of those I would suggest lipincott.) It also has a great column format that gives you the question, rational, and answer on the same page so there is no flipping between pages to get your answer. (This is a great time saver!) The only thing I wish this book had more of is the alternate format questions since those make up a lot of the questions on boards.

This book has a wealth of practice questions. Using the Q&A book along with Saunder's Comprehensive Review book, I was able to pass the boards. These were the only books I used. Would have liked more multiple/alternate answer questions, but it still did the job! I would definitely recommend Saunders.

This book is not for those looking for a review, instead it is packed with thousands of questions to practice for the NCLEX-RN exam.

What I found most appealing about this book is that the questions follow the actual test plan, and are not separated according to nursing content. The format also included answers on the same page as the questions, which made it more convenient because I was not wasting time flipping back and forth looking for the rationales.

The book also comes with a CD, which is great for practicing on the computer before you test. I highly recommend this book for anyone that feels they need to beef up on practice questions!
