This book has been very useful siince the day i recieved it ( By the way the shipping was very fast so i give it 5 stars!) I chose the 3-5 day shipping method but the package arrived the day after i purchased it!
I would recommend this book as a review material for the NCLEX!
"really can't say that I enjoyed this book."

First off, just buy the Lippincott's NCLEX review book. Much better deal, and way cheaper.
Okay, so this book is just a big bulky waste of paper. It was a required text for school but I rarely use it. I find many of the rationales vague and sometimes incorrect (I can verify with textbooks that information is incorrect), and quite frankly there are just better books out there. I don't want material explained before questions, that's what I have loads and loads of textbooks and other review materials for. I just want questions, and it's just all thrown together. It's not subcategorized, so you have to sift through and find the questions that you want, rather than them all being there in one spot. The only good thing about this is the CD because you can take 10 question quizzes or 100 question exams to prep for class tests. However, I won't be using this for my NCLEX review when I graduate.
