   Believe09 replied to clairebearrn's topic in NCLEX

   To be honest with you. I have not read that enormous blue Kaplan book since the second class day that we learned the "Kaplan tree" thingy and I have not watched any of the videos. Since graduation all I have done was answer question after question. W...
