Faculty Comments

“…Students have consistently told the authors that if they had learned and used the Study Without Stress method during their pre-professional preparation they would have had an easier time and earned much better grades. Everyone who has read a draft of this book has remarked, ‘I wish I had seen this book earlier; how can I get a copy?'"

“…Vital Skills: Study Strategies Every Nursing Student Must Know has thoroughly addressed the key areas of concern… Study skills, time management, and more have been identified as key factors that impact student success in the nursing program. This book has done great work in identifying the key issues that students encounter and give sequential solutions to them.

“The book is very well organized, gives a practical assessment of the problems and feedback on each tool. It gives a lot of examples for each case and is written in easy-to-read language. The pictorial illustrations are very helpful. The summary at the end of each chapter captures the key elements of that chapter is an easy to review manner. Reports of students’ feedback on tested techniques and skills say a lot to other students. This book is an essential tool for incoming nursing students.”
