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.

Best critical thinking book!
Review Date: January 9, 2007
Reviewer: 6th/7th Seal Overlap, Missouri
My Nursing Instructor initially recommended this book last semester and now it is part of the required books for this semester. It is an excellent study guide and helped me get a high grade in Adults Health II. I learned a lot from it and will use it to study for NCLEX. Saunders NCLEX study guide is good also.
Excellent for preparing for exams and state board

The rationales and test-taking hints are what sets this book apart from other course review books. Also the questions can be very challenging and will make you think. Each disorder section also have relevant delegation and prioritization questions. The Glossary of English Words common on nursing exams is very helpful when writing care plans and formal papers. In my opinion this book should be on the required text-book list of nursing schools. I believe that this book has increased my test grade average by 4-5 points.

Reviewer: Brook Brown,
Not only does this book provide a wide variety of N-CLEX style questions which are very relevant to Med-Surg nursing, but it also includes a detailed explanation for each question. It clarifies why the right answer is right, why the wrong ones are wrong and gives hits about how to understand what each question is asking for. I highly reccomend this book for any nursing student.

I bought this book in Med-Surg 2 and used it the entire semester. I even found that a couple of my instructors were using this book to make up test/quiz questions. An excellent resource. The questions are all put together really well, several of my fellow students saw this book with me and class and bought it as well, 1 of them was on the cusp of failing and this book brought her GPA up for the final! She now has RN behind her name!!
