Hi everyone!I'm taking my boards June 23rd, only 9 days left. I have been consistently studying (material review + I have completed 2000 questions from the Davis 2010 nclex -rn book). I have been reading great reviews about Kaplan's Qbank and I wanted some advice because I am thinking of purchasing the Qbank and doing 100 questions per day before my exam date. Any advice is so very welcomed! Thanks! :)

lynz06 41 Posts Jun 13, 2010 Congrats--I for one did not do as many Q-banks and the question trainers as I should have-- I had a lot going on the month after school and exam with personal/family issues and several deaths in the family/friends of the family and I knew if I would have allowed myself to sit down and do all the Kaplan I would have passed definetly. The questions are highly similar and if you can find somewhere where Kaplan goes over huge study tips/what mostly is covered on NCLEX, which there is somewhere because our instructor shared with us topics we should highly look over... and they were completely right, I would try to find them :)Good luck-- I will be on board again and Im going to finish ayll the qbanks and question trainers before Test 2.. I only got to I think 12 or 13% of Qbanks and did the first 4 trainers. Plus if you dont pass on the first time, which I hope everyone does-- They have a money back guarantee if you follow everything they say you have to make sure you completed--plus will give you more time online to study again from :)Good luck!

They key is consistency and u seem to be doing that. With only 9 days left dont spend all that money just to do about 900 to 1000 questions. Stay confident!
Luckylefty87 63 Posts Jun 14, 2010 Thank you all for your input :) I decided to purchase the Qbank since I completed my davis nclex rn question book.Since my exam is next week I am basically skimming material (I've done full on material review since graduation in May, so now I'm just polishing up) and focusing myself on kaplan's qbank ( I'm doing 200 q's a day till next tuesday)..and then Tuesday evening the night before my big day I'm going to relax, watch tv, and stay positive.
