hi, guys, i have been preparing NCLEX-RN exam for about 4 months. I've finished Saunders review for 2 times and did it's practice question as well. Since I still have some time, I consider if I need to join Kaplan online learning program and do some Kaplan style questions? I read some threads here which said Kaplan's is harder than Saunders, so I wonder what the real test looks like? the same level of Saunders or Kaplan? or does anyone here know if there is other resource online I can use for ? I think I need more practice questions. I do highly appreciate any advise you give! Wish you all good luck in the exam!!!!!!:)

I am doing both Kaplan and Saunders. Here is my take on it-
Saunders books have much, much more information. The questions are easier than Kaplan. The Saunders CD has harder questions than the Saunders content book questions (IMO).
The Kaplan questions are harder, but the book has a lot less information to review- everything is already in Saunders. The online content videos basically read the review book to you. The question bank is great- online you get around 1000 questions and you can pick what category of questions you want. The Kaplan CD is also great with the questions.
