Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Typically, dissertations can be rather boring to read except to the author. Rogers and Goeres did a superb job at making scholarly writing intersting. Excellent review of the literature about predictors for nursing students' success in the program and NCLEX. Interesting findings about TEAS scores as a variable. Will be very helpful to me in writing my dissertation.
