Product Description
There is a reason the new edition of Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN Examination has been called "the best NCLEX review book ever." Essentially, you'll find everything you need to review for the NCLEX exam under one cover - complete content review and over 4,200 NCLEX-style questions in the book and on the free companion CD! Don't make the mistake of assuming that the quality of the questions is the same in all NCLEX review books, because only Silvestri's Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN Examination includes the kind of questions that consistently test the critical thinking skills necessary to pass today's NCLEX exam. And, what's even better is that ALL answers include detailed rationales to help you learn from your answer choices, along with test taking strategies that provide tips for how to best approach each question. It's easy to see why Silvestri is THE book of choice for NCLEX review. But don't just take our word for it -- read any customer review or ask your fellow classmates to see why Silvestri users believe that there's nothing else like it!

best book! November 22, 2008
This is the best review book I have found so far. Great overview of the systems and thousands of review questions. I haven't taken the NCLEX yet, but I use this to study for my unit tests - last test, cardiac and respiratory, there were 500 questions to do! It's a great way to study, highly recommend

This review is about the uncompetitive pricing @ Amazon. After looking all over the Internet and also going through my old yahoo spam mail, it dawned on me that Border offers deep discount all the time. So I did a search on Border coupon and got a code for 30% off. I just bought the book brand new for $40.12, which includes the $3.06 CA sales tax with free shipping. Buyers be smart!!!
The ONLY book you need!!! October 30, 2008

If I were only allowed to use one book for all four semesters of Nursing school this would be it!! I am in an associate program wich is very condensed and this is the only book I read for content!!!! I have all the text books but just do not have the to read hundreds of pages of useless material. This book hits all the major points and everything on my exams can be found in it!!
A must have book October 29, 2008

This is one of the best books to use for studying. I used Saunders for my LPN and passed my boards with no trouble. I have been using the RN version during school and it has helped tremendously. Luckily my teachers use the same format, so it gives good practice questions.
