If you're looking for a comprehensive resource for NCLEX prep, look no further...this book is fantastic. Extensive topic coverage complete with rationales for every response. Prefer going online to take quizzes? No problem this book's got that, too. (Although the content online is a tad bit confusing to navigate, once you figure out how to get to the quizzes section, you won't forget.) I have several books for review and this one is my personal favorite. Some of my professors loan this text out to students, but I prefer 24/7 availability in my own home! :-) Happy studying, future nurses!UPDATE: I saw sooo many reviewers having trouble getting to the online content to take system-specific quizzes that I decided to post instructions here on how to get to the right place.1) Go to the Pearson Pegasus log-in page once you've set up online access, and log in.2) Click on the book title on the left side of the website.3) On the next page, on the left side near the top, you will see a menu bar that has the following options: "Today's View, Course Content, Grades, Communicate". Look just BELOW this menu bar and you will see the following options: "View All Content, Course Calendar, Learning Objectives."4) Click on Learning Objectives.5) On the left side, you will see the following options: "Client Need, Topics Areas, Integrated Process."6) To take quizzes related to your system or topic of choice, click the plus sign for "Topics Areas".7) Click on your system of choice.8) On the right side, there are several options for that topic of study. Scroll down to the bottom-ish. You will see a heading called "Self Study" for that topic of study. Click on it.9) A separate pop-up window will appear so that you may begin your quiz.I hope this is helpful. If you have any problems or questions, feel free to comment below. Note that the online quiz portion only works with Internet Explorer and certain versions of Firefox, but not with Chrome.

The Hogan book is one of two resources that I depended on from Block 1 to Block 4. I did so well in school, that almost everyone in my class asked me what I was doing, and I recommended this book.... even better -- in block 4, make sure and use the CDs -- this is how I passed block 4 respiratory and cardiac. BTW, I used all of the other hogan books (audio) and listened in the car. I should be on their marketing team.

I am an International graduate and to tell you honestly it has been hard for me to just even start studying. I've tried Saunder's, Kaplan, Mosby's, Davis', name it all. But, of all the books I've read, this book helped me a lot not only in terms of learning the theory and acquiring nursing knowledge and wisdom, it has also nurtured me on practicing my answering skills. The questions inside this book are really hard which I think is a good thing cause it makes you think more. Also, a lot of the questions are similar to the NCEX RN Exam. Trust me, this book explains everything you need to know in a convenient and easy manner. This is the only book that sharpened my mind and it prepared me for my NCLEX RN Exam. Two thumbs up for this book!!

I would like to take this opportunity to think Ms. MaryAnn Hogan for a great review book. I studied this book for six months and I did approximately 5000 questions online by using the code. I pass my exam with the first tried. I went to test center at 8 am, I started the exam at 8:15 I finished the exam at 9:29 am. Please everyone use this book LPN and RN, it’s really work. I tell my entire friend about it.

I am using this to help me study for my theory exams in a nursing program...not studying for NCLEX yet. This book is thorough and highlights all the right stuff. I feel like I'm cheating when I read this right before a test! My favorite sections are the Legal and Ethical content, Leadership, Prenatal, Antenatal, Postpartum, Mental Health, Cardiovascular, Respiratory, Musculoskeletal, Acid-Base Imbalances, Gastrointestinal...And there are 17 pharmacology chapters which highlight nursing care for all the right medications.The Questions at the end of each chapter are very knowledge based, so they are a little too easy, but the review content is so valuable that it's worth buying. Absolutely.

I like this product it was as described by and I am very happy with the product. I will buy more if I find that I am in need of them. Great for reviewing content throughout school. this book provides a good summary and is worth the cost.

I've been trying to study with this book for a week now, but I find that the online questions are such a pain to navigate. Instead of giving you a bulk amount of questions per subject, they give you these little 20 question quizzes, that you get to repeat. Unfortunately, the same questions from the book appear in the quizzes and the quizzes themselves will repeat questions. I wanted hundreds of questions, broken up by subject matter. This book and the online content are just a pain to deal with. I recently took an NCLEX review course and the instructor said Saunders was your best be for content review.

Awesome book, used it while in school for cardio-pulmonary rotation ...passed with an A! Turned to it again to study for my RN Nclex exam, very straight forward book. Passed my exam the 1st try with 75 questions!!!...now a REGISTERED NURSE!!!!!
