Saunders Comprehensive Review for the Navle®

Description

This single volume text will consist of review material in an outline format covering all the areas that are covered on the NAVLE. The text will be arranged by animal species with additional sections on Basic Sciences, Practice Management and Public Health. All subject areas on the test will be addressed in this review material. The accompanying CD-ROM will contain two 360-question practice tests that can be scored, but will not be randomized. The rationales for right and wrong answers on the accompanying Q&A CD-ROM described below will be cross-referenced to the review book.
