How similar are the Hurst Q-review questions to the NCLEX?

Hello all of you amazing nurses! I'm taking my NCLEX-RN in 2 weeks and I'm studying the HURST review and I'm wondering how close those practice questions are to the actual NCLEX. I keep seeing that the Kaplan questions are very similar so I'm wondering if I should invest in those questions instead of the HURST. In school I've tested the best knowing how that specific teacher likes to word questions so I feel knowing this will help. Thanks everyone!

I didn't find that hurst was similar to NCLEX. Their questions seemed repetitive and we're all based on their content....as in directly from their material which was unrealistic to me. Kaplan might be better in this regard.

Best wishes.

I was noticing the same thing, the questions were based off their content. Thanks for the info!

In my opinion Hurst was a lot more helpful than Kaplan. Kaplan questions were very difficult, and the priority questions were similar to Kaplan. They were just easier. To me NCLEX was similar to ATI!
