Great resource for NCLEX studying! September 4, 2008
Just passed the NCLEX on my first try! This was one of 2 books I purchased as NCLEX study guides. I found the strategies on how to think about the questions to be very helpful. The questions on the 2 practice exams (one in book, one on CD-ROM) were worded more closely to and required you to think critically just as "real" NCLEX questions. The other book I bought was more content review...which this book is not. This book is simply strategy for tackling questions, and 2 practice exams with very helpful rationales for each answer choice, why it's right or wrong. But compared to the other book I bought for content review, the questions in this book were more hlepful in preparing for the real exam. It's not a thick book and it's very easy to get through. Simple, yet thorough -- not a waste of time and a great book to add to your studying!
(I gave 4 stars instead of 5 becasue the CD-ROM practice test wasn't as great as I had hoped. It's 180 questions, and you have to do the entire exam all at once - timed - and there's NO way to pause it for any reason. Which is possibly because this is the way the real NCLEX is, but still...)
 Must have for NCLEX-RN review!! July 28, 2008
Not a great source of questions but an excellent source for strategies and confidence. I feel that you must first read this book before attempting to review with any other question only book.
Kaplan NCLEX-RN edition 2008-2009 July 28, 2008
Found the book very helpful in how to take the NCLEX exam. By following their way of looking at a test question I have seen my scores improve in this style of testing.
Exactly what I expected... July 12, 2008
First, please note that this book contains strategies to tackle the NCLEX. If you want a comprehensive book I recommend the Saunders text, which companions nicely with this one.
With that out of the way...Wow! This book was an absolute pleasure and helped me pass on the first attempt. The book is an easy read and explains how to dissect test questions and how to choose the best answer. Chock-full of sample questions within each chapter, it guides you with plenty of rationales that made me feel more ready to take the NCLEX. Additionally, the sample questions found in the practice exams are most similar to those found in the NCLEX itself, compared to other sources I browsed through.
Right on the cover, Kaplan guarantees a passing score on the first try. Well, they made good on that promise in my case! If you want to pass and feel comfortable while doing it, you won't regret this purchase!
This is the prep book to get July 6, 2008
If you only get one prep book, this is the one. It helps you make the most of what you already know, by teaching you test strategies. To pass the NCLEX, you have to figure out the best answer for each NCLEX question, and just memorizing facts isn't enough to pass the test. This book prepared me with useful practice questions and tips so that I answered more questions with more confidence, and I passed the NCLEX. Whatever else you do to prepare, use this book to practice answering NCLEX-type questions.
