I just found out today that I passed the NCLEX.

So far, there has been about 15 of my classmates that all took Kaplans and passed with 75 (including myself). None has failed yet. It seems that the common denominator in all this is Kaplans, and I just felt that the style of the questions were so similar to the NCLEX that it felt like "just another" test I was taking when I was studying so it wasn't intimidating in that sense. I also think it prepared me really well for the subjects the NCLEX tested on.
So for all of you wondering if the cash is worth it... I say YES! Oh, and if you're military, take advantage of the $200 dicount that they offer. Call them and they'll ask you to fax a copy of your military ID and then will charge you accordingly. :-)
Good luck to everyone taking their exams soon!
