the pharma topic in ncsbn is great..alsooo, youll find the questions challenging and I think it will enhance your decision making skills..I would suggest that you run through each topic and focus more on answering the post test..also, make use of the interactive exercise that each topic contains..

I can only speak for the NCSBN since I never took Kaplan,but recently I signed up for the 3 week NCSBN course and I really think it is really helping me me to prepare for the NCLEX:twocents:

I'm doing the NCSBN course review,it is great for the content is and the questions are definitely a chalenge and I think the only difference between both of the reviews is that Kaplan has more Qbank questions (around 3000 I believe,while NCBSN has only 1000 qbank questions plus post tests for each sections) and Kaplan focus on strategies versus NCBSN more on the content.

Speaking as a person who just took the NCLEX as in today, NCSBN question were very similar to the NCLEX questions. Most of my questions were one sentence type questions which is most similar to the NCSBN. I did take a review and did NCLEX 3500 but like I said the most similar ones are on the learning ext. HTH
