   oakleaf replied to heartsgal's topic in New Nurse

3. Hurst+kaplan= nclex success?

   oakleaf replied to Lemuel_RN's topic in NCLEX

   I was able to do both courses. Kaplan was included with our program, so I didn't have to pay for it. I bought Hurst. I was very confident on the NCLEX, when I walked out. I was pretty sure I passed (And I did!, though there was of course post-tes...

    I did both Hurst and Kaplan. I all of the qbank and qtrainers for Kaplan, but only one of the hurst qreviews. I was mainly doing Hurst for content review. I got 84/125. I passed the nclex-rn with the minimum number of questions.

12. Freaking out about Nclex in 2 weeks

    oakleaf replied to jweb's topic in NCLEX

    I used Saunders a little bit for studying. I would use it to go over content as I was reviewing kaplan questions. I honestly found the book too overwhelming and detailed, but it was great for when I wanted to study something specific I didn't unders...
