Questions about the Kaplan Review Course

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I am debating on whether or not I should take the Kaplan online course, buy the Q Bank, or just buy the Kaplan review book? Do you get enough questions in the Kaplan review book with rationales? Financially I can't afford the online course but I need to pass the NCLEX.

Do you think i would be okay with the review book only?

Thank you,

Joe

Alot of people have done very well with the review book alone.

I did the online class and while I found it helpful, I don't think it is entirely necessary for success.

Have you taken any ATI or NLN assessment tests throughout nursing school? If so, how have you done on these? How have you done on nursing school tests? If you've done average to above average, I think you could do just fine with the Q bank and the review book.

Thank you for replying. I've done okay on the ATI exams. I was over their benchmark for the most part. I have had a hard time getting going again and I have been told my many that I should use the Kaplan review book. I have the review book on hold at Barnes & Noble (2011-2012 Edition) which i will pick up tonight.

Noyesno, congrats on the new job and best of luck to you. I have one more obstacle to overcome........

You're welcome jbjints! If you're over the benchmark for the most part, the Kaplan book should suffice. A friend of mine just passed and the Kaplan book was her primary study tool for the NCLEX.

Thanks jbjints, you are very kind. :)

YOU CAN DO IT! :up:

I have a question about a Kaplan free event. I signed up for the free strategy seminar and also saw where they are having a Nclex Practice test in Alabaster (Birmingham). My question is has anyone attended an event like this. Alabaster is probably a couple of hours from my home, but i'm willing to drive if its worth it. Please help!!??? :grn:

Lots of people pass without taking a review course. You can too if you work hard at preparing.
