Kaplan Online vs. In person

Hi there!

Anyone out there who took Kaplan online, how did you like it? Were you able get your questions answered? Was the instructor good with their teaching or do you wish you had taken it in person. I ask because I am considering taking the Kaplan review course, but the only class type available that works in my job's time frame is online. I prefer to take in person. Any thoughts?

I took the Kaplan Classroom anywhere and it was awesome. I really enjoyed it and questions were always answered. The teachers are professional and my teacher always gave helpful hints. I loved it and found it was very effective. I took NCLEX and got 75 questions, felt good walking out of testing center and passed.

Do they mail you your books? If I wanted to take an online course that started on Monday would I have enough time?

They did mail me the book. But to be honest with you I did not even really use the book except for following the study plan and writing down my scores and I looked at a couple of drugs I did not know. They will also e-mail you chapters of the book that you will need to have.

Have read more than one post where it was said that the in person review was less than satisfactory because the person leading the review would not answer questions and only read questions and answers to the group.

Wow. Caliotter that's so ironic. I JUST had a convo with my classmate and she said the exact same thing. It was like a big group discussion just answering questions, but she said the discussion helped. In any event, I signed up for the online class!!
