Just completed my first semester of Nursing school, and could've scored a "B" using just this book and all the other online content assigned to class. This means I could've avoided reading the main textbook by Craven altogether! Our teacher was heavy on Nursing Behavior and light on Patient Pathology. This book did a much better job than the main text for test preparation. Each chapter has 20 questions with rationales, but the CD adds another 30 NCLEX questions per chapter, so over 500 questions total included.

Davis's Fundamentals Success: A Course Review Applying Critical Thinking to Test Taking by Patricia M. Nugent, Barbara Vitale Review

I recommend this book as well as the rest of the series to anyone who asks for my opinion. They have been a great lifesaver to study for my tests and understand concepts in a practical way and not just memorizing facts. Helps with your critical thinking and forces you to think about concepts in a different way which is so helpful in nursing school. Every question gives you a rationale for why the answer is correct or incorrect and tells you what concepts you may need to go back and brush up on. This book was one of the best books that I bought so far. It is worth every penny and I have recommended it but I refuse to give up my copy because I still refer to it and go back over questions to keep things fresh and reinforce my learning as I go along!!!! If you buy one book that isn't required when starting nursing school this one should be the one!!!!
