Saunders 5th edition Review


  • Completely updated content is based on the new NCLEX-RN examination test plan, effective April 2010.
  • A total of 4,500 questions ensure that you're thoroughly prepared for the content covered on the NCLEX-RN Exam.
  • New chapter on physical assessment highlights the key components of physical examination and health history often encountered on the NCLEX exam.
  • Audio and video questions on the companion CD provide experience with these new types of questions before the exam.
  • Unique! Audio review summaries included on the CD cover the three core areas of pharmacology, fluids and electrolytes, and acid-base balance.
  • Expanded coverage of prioritization, delegation, and nursing leadership and management provides critical information for these growing areas of nursing.
  • Unique! Priority Nursing Actions boxes outline and explain clinical emergent situations requiring immediate action, including detailed rationales and textbook references to help strengthen your prioritizing skills in clinical and testing situations.
  • Pyramid Alert boxes highlight important nursing concepts to help you focus on the content that is most frequently tested on the NCLEX examination.
  • Automatic software updates on CD make it easy to check for changes and updates throughout the life of the edition.
Time and time again, the most frequently asked question from students? what is the best NCLEX review material to use ? as an educator for more that 10 years ,I observed that students frequently buy lots of review material, but never use them.  I would suggest  to buy a review material that is easy to understand and focuses on  exam test format. Saunders Nclex review material has really good content, it tackles the basics or fundamentals you need to know in each concepts. I would recommend Saunders NCLEX review book to get you started in your  NCLEX preparation. I give it a 4/5 rating.
