Best for studying and understanding content. “A must use when studying for standardized tests…and licensing exams such as the NCLEX.”—Chelle

Great! So glad I got it!“This book is such a great reference and the information found in it is incredibly thorough. It's small enough to where you can carry it around or bring it to work with you.”—Amazon Reviewer
