    Hello!

    I will be applying to take the exam this summer.  I did not want to feel rushed to prepare, so I am taking the "slow" route to studying.  I have just finished going through School Nursing: A Comprehensive Text and I'm now reviewing the School Nurse Resource Manual.  I have the certification review book to work through and focus on after that.

    I am strongly considering taking the review course just before the exam.  Even if I feel prepared, I can use the CEUs for my license and staff development hours.

    My question is - do the flashcards that are available on NurseBuilders add value to what I will get from the certification review book, or is that the same information in a different format?

    Thank you!

    I'll be honest the flash cards did not add value for me. And they aren't even flash cards- I was kind of dissapointed its a small book regular paper with questions on one side and the answer on the back. But it is the same information as the review book so to me it hasn't been helpful. but if you learn better in small chunks it may be for you..
