Kaplan books & review


I have a question about the Kaplan book & the course. Does the Kaplan review book have any questions in it? Or is it all about strategy? Is the Kaplan review book what is taught in class if you take the Kaplan review class?

Also.. if you buy the Kaplan review that is online, is it the same as whats in class? Its $80 cheaper so I want to make sure I am not missing out on anything if I go the cheaper route.

I have a hard time focusing in class.. I tend to daydream a lot. Yes I have ADD, lol. So I'm wondering if buying the Kaplan book or doing the online review would be easier for me.

what works for me was i attended the class and it helps me a lot from concepts up to strategies,it helps me to think of my answers.it still depends on what type of learner are you,if you think classroom set up wont work for you,then don't bother attend the class.the review book like the course book was just an oultline of the concepts and it's not that comprehensive.so be sure when you read that book,your foundation must be really good coz its just a review book,as in review.
