Lippincott Q&A Review for NCLEX-RN,

12e is designed to help pre-

licensure nursing students prepare to take the licensing examination.

The book is designed to support the four major content areas in pre-

licensure programs: obstetrics, pediatrics, medical-surgical, and mental

health nursing. When studying, students can select examinations that

parallel the content in a particular course in a variety of curricula.

PassPoint offers the same flexibility for review and study. The textbook

also includes six comprehensive examinations to provide students

a realistic example of the NCLEX-RN test, in which test items are

randomized by subject area and difficulty.

Features

• More than 6,000 high-level questions that cover all exam topics and

support the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN)

test plan.

• all the types of alternate-format questions found on the licensing

examination

• Detailed rationale for both correct and incorrect answers

• information about the NCLEX-RN, study tips, and a “Content

Mastery and Test-Taking Self Analysis” grid by which students can

chart their own progress and modify study plans as needed.

• The accompanying site on thePoint provides an opportunity for

students to practice taking computer-generated exams as well as

taking “audio” questions that require students to listen to audio files

to answer.

• Greater emphasis on pharmacology and management of care

questions (delegation, prioritization, and leadership), as per the

NCLEX-RN test plan.

• Additional questions about older adults.

• Additional questions requiring students to make clinical decisions.

• Adherence to the NCLEX-RN 2016 test plan and Practice Analysis

(to be released fall/spring 2015).

• Questions formulated based on frequency of nursing actions as per

NCSBN Practice Analysis.

• Added information on test preparation and study plans; more

information on taking computerized tests (a need identified in the

Canadian market).
