5.0 out of 5 stars A great reference for Med-Surg Certification, August 21, 2004

D. W. Woodruff "education that empowers" (Cleveland, OH) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Springhouse Review for Medical-Surgical Nursing Certification (Paperback)

I found this text to be the easiest to use of all the review materials available to study for the Med-Surg Certification exam. It is comprehensive, but easier to use and understand than other outline-based review books.

Please don't be mislead, there is more to studying for the certification exam than just reading a review book. Certification is a process. Use the review book to find your weak areas but you may have to use additional resources to study for them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great review for Certification exam, May 12, 2007

(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Springhouse Review for Medical-Surgical Nursing Certification (Springhouse Nursing Review Series) (Paperback)

This book was very helpful in preparation for the med-surg certification exam. When I took the exam, this book proved to cover most of the content on the exam. The book is easy to follow and covers all the main points. My only critique is that I wish there were more practice questions in the book.

This book was great. I passed the exam the first time with this study guide. It was quick and to the point. It really refreshes the reader on everything that "ails ya".
