This book is an excellent Q&A book. It provides detailed rationales and is outlined according to the SCRN certification study blueprint. The only drawback is that the app does not work as indicated on the book; however, access to questions on the computer is awesome, as you could sit and participate in a mock exam setting. Excellent book. Passed certification on the first try. Good add-on study accessory.

Used this book along with "Fast Facts for Stroke Care Nursing" and a powerpoint a friend sent from a class. Also have 3 years in a Neuro/Stroke ICU Unit. Passed the SCRN on the first try. These books were good but definitely did not cover some of the specific info that was on the exam. However, I think adequate enough that a person could pass with just using only these two sources.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cheaper than app access alone!

I used this book to study for the SCRN as my primary study method. I also used allegro study book of questions. This one was nice b/c it came with the access code for the app, which helped me study more often on my phone. The app lets you mark question as red green or yellow, to indicate how well you know the info so you can go back and re-do them later. I ended up passing the exam, so i would def recommend this book! Buying the book was cheaper than getting the app access alone.
