Product Description
Clearly separating the overwhelming array of medical-surgical nursing content into manageable sections as they are taught and tested, "Med-Surg Success" provides core medical-surgical concepts with related NCLEX-style questions. Like the NCLEX itself, the questions are presented at the application and analysis level, and address the nursing process, management, prioritizing, and medications: critical thinking and how it relates to test taking is emphasized throughout. Organized by body system and specific diseases, "Med-Surg Success" builds on the successful skills and strategies that have already helped thousands of students in Fundamentals Success and Test Success. The disorders chapters provide practice questions focused on the disease process and a comprehensive exam that includes the processes covered in the practice questions along with other topics involving the system addressed. Other chapters similarly cover emergency, perioperative, and cultural nursing; alternative health care and end-of-life issues; and the last chapter before the comprehensive final exam includes questions and test-taking hints specific to pharmacology and the administration of medications.

Great Practice Questions April 18, 2010
Celeste (NC)
This book is great review for tests' in Med-Surg. After studying your book, you can study the questions in the Med-Surg success book, to make better sense of the information. And get practice in answering NCLEX type questions.

Our instructor even used some of the questions on the test. So... yeah... great practice.

Great Questions! April 16, 2010
Carrie Priest (Marysville, OH USA)
The questions in this book are great, they are more difficult than a lot of other NCLEX books. I like that its organized by disease, so if you find you are having trouble with one it's easy just to review the content in that disease instead of finding questions out of a whole chapter.

What planet have I been on? March 27, 2010
Tiffany
What planet have I been on that I have been in nursing school a couple of years now and never purchased such a straight to the point, detailed reasoning, easy to read and great book. Like seriously, who has time to read the gazillion nursing pages that are assigned unless you are a non-human speed reader from a another planet. I am glad I purchased this book because it just makes sense. It gives you review and rationales for the correct and non correct answers. I luv this book. It even reminds you of the nursing process and interventions. It gives you tons of defintions. This book really deserves an award.

Good book..must read my comment!!!!!!!!! February 2, 2010
"Deal" (Texas, USA)
This book covers all the contents of whole body system's disorder. Also, from each body system, they itemize each disease..which is really good...But i think book contains little bit easy questions. I am 3rd semester nuring student and when i finish studying my text book for each exams, i do practice questions in book....I found that all questions are very easy for me....not very challenging.....So, the point is...if you are preparing for your NCLEX exams and you already finish your nursing school, this book is not for you...its better idea to spend money on NCLEX book then this one...Good Luck Studying!!!
