Hi to all.
I just want to know what is the best NCLEX reviewer...Saunders or Kaplan??
I have the Saunders 3rd edition..used it to study..I FAILED my first try....This is
my second time to test for the exam...I was now wondering to try Kaplan.
I think i have better chance of passing than Saunders...plus the NCSBN learning
extension..Please Help!! I want to pass this time...

I thinks its also depends on your strategies on studying..or maybe im just really
dumb to not pass it....Can someone please help

Re: Saunders or Kaplan..what is better???

I personally used Saunders and learningext on my third attempt and passed. Keep practising questions and read the rationales even if right

Re: Saunders or Kaplan..what is better???

The only person who can make this determination for you, is you. You need to do as many questions as possible and study the rationales. This is the best way to get used to answering the test questions.

Re: Saunders or Kaplan..what is better???

I am using saunders right now and loving it..

Re: Saunders or Kaplan..what is better???

i thought saunders was good for content but their practice questions were way too easy compared to the actual NCLEX questions. i used the 4th ed. of saunders, did questions from that and failed my first try.

i signed up for kaplan and i believe their questions are more similar to the actual NCLEX. i kept practicing questions from kaplan and passed my second try.

my advice: use saunders for content review and use kaplan to practice questions. don't forget to read the rationales, BOTH right and wrong answers.

Re: Saunders or Kaplan..what is better???

Try to use kaplan in answering test questions. I only used Kaplan Qtrainer and it helps a lot!

Re: Saunders or Kaplan..what is better???

i only used the kaplan question trainer. i mainly used saunders for my reading and Q & A, the CD. but thank God i made it!
