NLN Test Ob AND Peds Exams | Testing Out for BSN Bridge Program

I am an LPN, and I am in a BSN bridge program that allows me to test out of OB and PEDS by taking a NLN test. I need to know the best books to begin studying. The test is in October 2014. Thanks.

    Hey Ingrid!

    The best way to study for this (since you are just taking the OB & Peds NLN achievement exams) is to buy a study guide covering that material specifically. There are certain things you must know about OB and Ped nursing that you will see over and over on the NCLEX and these achievement exams help test you ability about this material and for NCLEX. For instances, childhood illnesses, vaccination schedules, stages of labor, fetal heart tones monitoring, APGAR scoring etc are things to study and the study guides below help you do so.

    I recommend:
    – Pearson Reviews & Rationales: Maternal-Newborn Nursing with Nursing Reviews & Rationales (3rd Edition) for OB exam
    https://www.registerednursern.com/how-to-pass-maternity-nursing-in-nursing-school-what-is-maternity-nursing/

    -Pearson Reviews & Rationales: Child Health Nursing with Nursing Reviews & Rationales (3rd Edition) for Peds exam
    https://www.registerednursern.com/how-to-pass-pediatric-nursing-in-nursing-school-what-is-pediatric-nursing/

    You will also be able to use these books to help you prepare for NCLEX-RN when the time comes. I used these books during my Peds and OB classes and they helped me pass the exams which will be similar to what you will see on the NLN exam.

    Also if you just want to buy one book, I would get the Saunders Comprehensive Guide for NCLEX-RN exam. It has specific chapters for Peds and OB along with a CD that contains NCLEX-RN questions for OB and Peds. It is a great book.

    Good luck and I hope you pass. Please keep in touch 🙂

    Get a good review guide that prepares you for NCLEX and just study the maternity and pediatric sections. Also be sure to practice lot of questions that should come on a CD with the book. Saunders is good and so is Kaplan.
