3. Do you review ALL questions on KAPLAN?

   Melusine replied to LM NY's topic in NCLEX

   I actually DO review all the rationales, since sometimes I got the question right but the rationale they stated was slightly different from what I was thinking....Also useful for those questions you may have answered with an educated guess.

   Geriatrics & General Medicine. I know some people were initially reluctant to post in this thread because they knew so many of the other applicants...I overheard this topic of discussion on my interview day, and indeed many of my fellow applican...

    Melusine replied to Melusine's topic in Wisconsin

    I felt that it went well, but of course there is some fierce competition. Much like in my nursing program, a lot of very smart people who have a lot to offer. What really impressed me about the experience was how much dedication and enthusiasm those ...
