Hurst Review (Online)....

lhadaway · Nov 6, 2012

I dont know if you guys are still checking these posts, but I too decided to pay the extra 300 dollars and do hurst review. I couldn't decide between kaplan or hurst (bc i literally am broke) so i decided to purchase the kaplan study strategy review book and the hurst online review. I took the exam 3 weeks ago with just using all the review books that i have (lacharity, reviews and rationales, the yellow book-i think its saunders? i already forgot... as well as NCSBN). From reading this blog I've heard you guys say that the kaplan questions are very helpful bc they are harder. I dont plan on taking test for another few months bc i want to be sure of myself. I hate to put the money down for it, but what do you guys think of Kaplans qbank? is it worth the money? and how does the qbank work? is it all just a variety of content mixed together, or do you do specific content at one time? and for the people whom use hurst review and kaplan, how exactly do you use both together. sorry for the lengthy questions, i just need some good input :)

I also did Kaplan, Saunders and multiple iPhone apps. Hurst on line was my favorite!!!! I passed NCLEX-PN first time with min. 85 questions. I will most certainly repeat Hurst in 22 months when I take NCLEX-RN. Sorry for any typos, I'm on my iPhone:-)
