This guide contains tips and stories drawn from interviews with 300 nursing students, graduates, and staff nurses for getting through nursing school. Weaving in their advice, Dunham discusses choosing and getting into a school, financial aid, time management, dealing with stress, study habits and skills, test taking, being a nontraditional student, handling clinical rotations, preparing for the NCLEX, licensure, issues and trends in the field, and finding a job. Brief profiles of a nurse and his or her career are integrated within the text. Books and web resources that are provided for some chapters are annotated. Dunham, a student in a MSN program, is a home visiting nurse and the coauthor of How to Love Your Life as a Nurse. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
