Failed NCLEX 3 times

I graduated almost a year ago from nursing school, and have yet to pass the nclex exam. I have done the hurst review, ncsbn review, along with practicing questions from Nclex 4000 cd. I was really interested in kaplans review online and was wondering if anyone has taken this review before. I have always wanted to take this review, but was scared because it is costly. Any feedback on kaplans would be greatly appreciated..Thanks, Megs21

I graduated last year. Took Kaplan a week after graduation. Took the NCLEX 3 weeks after that & passed. It's well worth it but you have to put in the time to study. The Kaplan is all about how to answer the questions not just content. When I took Kaplan, they said if you fail, they will give you a refund.

You will find most comments about the Kaplan review here to be positive, but you still need to put forth the effort afterward to get what you want out of it. Good luck.

Thats encouraging..Thank you! When you took Kaplans, did you take the online review or live? I was reading that when I sign up, I will have classroom time on the computer plus 3 mo of qbank and tests to study from too. Is this what you had?
