Synopsis

The Princeton Review realizes that acing the NCLEX-RN is very different from getting straight As in nursing school. The Princeton Review doesn’t try to teach students everything there is to know about nursing--only what they’ll need to score higher on the exam. There’s a big difference. In Cracking the NCLEX-RN, TPR will teach test takers how to think like the test makers and:

·Score higher by knowing in advance what will be on the test
·Ace the exam by reviewing key topics such as: Adult & Pediatric Physiology, Health Promotion and Maintenance and more
·Avoid surprises with TPR's step-by-step instructions for obtaining your license

**This book includes eight full-length simulated NCLEX-RN exams on CD-ROM and more than 1,400 review and practice questions. The questions are just like the ones test takers will see on the actual exam, and The Princeton Review fully explains every solution.
