Kaplan vs Mosby

Nurses New Nurse

Published

I am taking the NCLEX in a few days. I have gone through both the Mosby comprehensive book and the Kaplan book. I can answer the Kaplan questions with such ease, and the Mosby just "so-so". I am wondering from those who have taken the NCLEX, which style is closer to resembling the NCLEX questiosns? Kaplan or Mosby?

Thanks!!

I haven't taken the NCLEX yet, but I have the Kaplan NCLEX book and took the 1 week Kaplan NCLEX review. I've never seen the Mosby's book, so I don't really know about it.

Hi Emily,

Kaplan is a better resource from what I have learned. They recommend you get in the 60-70% range to be successful on the NCLEX.

Just a side note, the NCLEX questions are certified. Most of the review books have some to many questions that would be considered "uncertified" by board standards. Just so you don't panic about getting some questions wrong. Many would have been thrown out the window!

Good luck to you Emily, you sound like you're confident and ready to pass!

I'll keep you in my prayers,

Jacel
