From pediatrics to geriatrics, the one constant in my test prep was always my Saunders, and it also helped me pass the 'dreaded' NCLEX the first time. - Brett L., RN This book made many complex topics clear, concise, and easy to understand. The practice questions were also great and the best study tool I had when it came to studying for the boards. I know this book played a key role when it came to passing the NCLEX the first time around. - Erika R., RN This book helped me get through every exam during nursing school.
