I love studying from outlines so this book worked well for me. It is a great resource. However, it was saturated with minute details that are overwhelming and may distract a person from the main concepts.

Essential study guide.

Great review book. Some typos, but the only thing that matters is I passed my OCN!

I didn't keep book because someone purchased the book for me. However, thus far it's easy reading and I'm learning a lot.

The questions with multiple correct answers confusing and not the format of th oncc test.

It was exactly what I thought it was

Great resource

This is exactly what I need to study for my chemo biotherapy course and OCN test.
