"This book is designed to assist the student nurse in being successful in nursing school. It focuses on clinical judgment and critical thinking in regard to test-taking. There are the usual test questions found in review books, but the test taker will also find clinical judgment guides. This book attempts to follow the content found on the NCLEX-RNª. This book is designed to assist the nursing student when preparing for and taking medical- surgical examinations as well as the graduate nurse who is preparing to take the national licensure examination"-- Provided by publisher.
