Synopsis

NCLEX High-Risk: The Disaster Prevention Manual for Nurses Determined to Pass the RN Licensing Examination provides senior nursing students and graduate nurses, who are at risk of failing the NCLEX-RN, with proven methods to maximize their chances of success. Focusing on two key weakness areas, test-question analysis and basic nursing knowledge, readers will be guided through comprehensive self-diagnostic processes related to both of these areas, and then through whatever remedial work is needed. Readers will be equipped to take the NCLEX-RN with confidence! Key features: - Presents in-depth material on test-taking strategies and test-item analysis - Provides readers with essential principles for answering questions on certain topics, such as nurse-physician interactions and prioritization - Introduces the Nugget Method, which enables readers to identify critical information that is missing from their nursing knowledge, and commit it to their long-term memory - Guides readers in using their performance on the comprehensive tests to gauge their readiness to take or retake the NCLEX - Offers nurse educators an essential tool for helping their students
