Is it worth it to enroll in Kaplan??

Published

i took nclex couple of times already but wasn't lucky to make it. I tried to enroll in Hurst online review before but still failed the nclex. this time, im thinking of enrolling in Kaplan or in any other good review centers you may recommend.

i wanna know if its worth the bucks spent for the Kaplan review course? What would you advice for an international student (graduated from Philippines) like me?

Hey kababayan. I am using Hurst online review and have used Kaplan. There is a free link of Kaplan Qtrainers on this site. It's almost exactly the same with just a few changes. Kaplan videos are not so great as Hurst's, IMO. Just purchase the Kaplan's Qbank. Good luck! :)

hi kababayan:) i am doing the kaplan qbank and ONLY the qbank.. i didn't get the whole indemand review due to the fact that I may pass while not having to put additional $200 at risk. i find the qbank very helpful. at first I was a little devastated at my low scores, but as I continued answering questions I saw how much I improved. just read the rationales and practice practice practice. oh and also do try and get the Lacharity book everyone is talking about. it will definitely boost up your knowledge on prioritization and delegation..

goodluck to us:) God bless

Stay away from Kaplan. I received two degrees from them and their financial aid department is horrible. I am currently fighting them over a $10K+ balance because of their idiot staff and their mistakes. No one is on the same page there and they will keep giving you the run around.... IMOP- RUN!
