Hi everyone!
I am an international graduate from the Philippines. I actually graduated last April but did not get the chance to take the local board last June because of personal matters. So I just decided to start my NCLEX application process. Basically, I am now unofficially eligible to take the exam based on my application status posted on online two weeks ago. All I just have to do now is register to pearsonvue, pay the fee and wait for my ATT after one or more days after. However, I still haven't done that because I am not yet prepared.
I have to find a really good review course that fits for me. I heard that Kaplan is one of the best and I plan to enroll on their NCLEX-RN Classroom anywhere worth $499 asap. It's a lot of money involved but is it really worth it? I would like to know if anyone of you have any experiences with Kaplan courses especially the course that I want. Please share your insights/comments/suggestions or anything regarding kaplan so I'll know what is the best decision for my NCLEX success. I would really appreciate it. Looking forward to them and your prayers as well. Thanks.

Also, I've read and heard that Kaplan has promo discount for their nclex courses. If you have any idea about it, please share and let us know. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Still no reply from anyone :/ I will enroll tonight and I hope I will make the best decision for my nclex-rn success.

I'm currently using the Kaplan On Demand and its pretty great! I like how the content is broken down by what NCLEX covers. In addition, their questions are much harder than the Saunders CD and they are great for critical thinking. I used the LIVE50 promo and got 50 bucks off.
Thank you so much! :)

I've heard about it but most say that nclex is more the same as kaplan. Since you used kaplan and passed, I'll probably go for it. Thanks :)
Glad to hear that. I will look forward to it. Thank you so much and Good luck! :)
