Although I agree with another reviewers comments regarding the practice tests (both chapter and comprehensive), I already assumed this would be the case as most texts have inadequate test banks (evidence-based, not just my opinion). Nevertheless, you would expect better from some of the nation's best nurse educators.
Overall, the text presented everything I needed to focus on for CNE prep. I took and passed the exam last Friday and there were only two questions which used material not covered in the review guide. If I had not been in an MSN educator track, I probably would have felt more confident reading Billings and Halstead, Bastable, and Oermann and Gaberson - but I teach for a living! Who has that kind of time? So, I would recommend this book for educators who are short on time, but know their way around a classroom, in general.
In fact, I'm buying two more copies and donating them to my program to help others pass the CNE.
