Maternity Study Guide | NCLEX Review | Nursing School Content Breakdown In this book, I breakdown the MATERNITY content for easy understanding, provide strategies and tips every nursing student should know, and then discuss 100 NCLEX review questions and provide solid rationales to really help your understanding. This book is meant to act as a supplement to boost your learning, go hand in hand with your studying, and help increase your test scores! * PLEASE NOTE * The NCLEX will be the weirdest exam you will ever take. No matter how much you prepare, you will feel like you are just making the best guess... this is normal. This is because the NCLEX doesn't test you on your ability to regurgitate content but rather the basics and mainly your critical thinking ability. For this reason, the content breakdown only covers the absolute must know core content that you are required to know and most likely see on the NCLEX. There is no way to know EVERYTHING and that is why it is not all covered. This book will provide you with the core must know knowledge and the questions & rationales will help develop your critical thinking. Thank you and all the best!
