Nursing Exam Prep Resources at Health Professions Library
April 6th, 2012 by John Carey
As Hunter-Bellevue Nursing students prepare to graduate, many will find themselves facing some type of state board or professional licensing exam before they can further advance in a chosen field. Whether for the NCLEX or some other certification or licensure, the Hunter libraries offer many resources to help students prepare.
ON RESERVE: The following exam prep books–among others–are held on reserve at the Health Professions Library circulation desk:
- Saunders comprehensive review for the NCLEX-RN examination / 3rd ed.

E-BOOKS: Also, don’t forget the many exam prep materials that the library has in electronic form. The following titles–and many more–are available within the library’s “Ebrary” database (NetID log-in required):

Unita,
Your NetID is the first part of your Hunter e-mail address (i.e., whatever comes before the “@” symbol). If you don’t know your NetID or your Hunter e-mail info, go to Net ID Central:
https://netid.hunter.cuny.edu/login?next=/
From there, you can find out your NetID, find or change a password, etc. This is the same info you will need to access the library’s databases from home, so it’s good to know!

I’ve used the Mosby’s prep book for the NCLEX-RN and can highly recommend it. It definitely does a good job of presenting the student with questions that are very similar to those which actually appear on the exam.

Hey Library,
I know what you mean, There are lots of ways to study for the CFA Level 1 exam, but increasingly students are turning to online learning as a way to stay ahead of the competition. Your chances of passing the CFA Level 1 exam on the first attempt are only about 35 percent. That percentage is even lower if you are not a native English speaker or if you are taking the exam outside of the US or Western Europe.
I’ll be back to read more next time
