Review: Overall I did not care for this book. I found several mistakes througout the sample test and was therefore concerned about what mistakes I did not catch. I would not recommend this book for test preparation at all.

Summary: Good Book for Nursing Entrance Exams
Review: This book was a good review for preparing for my nursing entrance exam. It helped me to prepare for reading comprehension and math which is hit on pretty big on nursing exams. Reading comprehension is sometimes very tricky. A lot of it has to do with the examineer's interpretion of a reading passage, which can be right, wrong or in between. This book helped me with practicing reading comprehension in the interpretation of the examineer. I also used the following which is I found highly helpful for the science section of my nursing entrance exam:
Key Facts For Anatomy and Physiology (ISBN: 0971999694)
This second book helped my pass my entrance exam. It always good to know a little more than not enough when it comes to nursing entrance exams. I highly advise getting both books.
