Lippincott Review for NCLEX-PN 8.2.2

Lippincott Review for NCLEX-PN, 11th Edition is a valuable resource for pre-licensure nursing students in practical and vocational nursing programs who are preparing to take the licensing examination. The organization of the book into comprehensive sections makes it easy to navigate, and with over 2,000 questions spread across five major units, students can thoroughly review all necessary material. Of particular note is the inclusion of 17 separate review tests, with a focus on medical-surgical nursing - a crucial clinical area for new practical nurses.

The content of the book is divided into five units that correspond to specific specialty areas of nursing practice, including the nursing care of adults with medical-surgical disorders, the nursing care of the childbearing family, the nursing care of children, and the nursing care of clients with mental health needs.

In addition to the extensive question bank, the fifth unit features a comprehensive examination that offers more practice than is typically found on the actual NCLEX-PN, with a total of 263 items. Following each review test and comprehensive examination, there are sections dedicated to providing correct answers and rationales, as well as helpful test-taking strategies. These sections not only provide insights into why an answer is correct, but also clarify why other answer choices are incorrect. Additionally, they offer cognitive level classification and test plan category and subcategory information.

The book also includes a detailed review of Frequently Asked Questions that cover key aspects of the NCLEX-PN testing process, exam design, and suggestions for effective preparation. Moreover, the questions in the book are aligned with the 2017 PN test plan established by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN), ensuring that students are familiarized with the style and content they will encounter on the licensing examination. By incorporating various types of alternate-format questions found on the actual exam, comprehensive rationales for both correct and incorrect answers, and an abundance of photos and illustrations, this edition aims to enhance the learning experience for visual learners.

Lippincott Review for NCLEX-PN, 11th Edition is a well-structured and comprehensive study guide that equips nursing students with essential knowledge and practice to confidently tackle the licensing examination.
