Kaplan Q bank or ncbsn...

Which one is better? Has anyone have both. Which is closer to the actual n-clex?...

I used both along with a myriad of other things, esp Saunders for content review. Had I not have taken the Kaplan review with the Qbank, I think that I would have been surprised when I sat for the nclex. The way that the questions are worded is very close to Kaplan and ncsbn combined - although I thought the questions on the boards were harder. Hope that makes sense. Good luck to you!

Both Kaplan and NCBSN have hard questions.... and lots of priority question which might be useful to us for NCLEX.....

but I think Kaplan give you more rationals and explainations..and you can retake the test again and again and reuse the question..Kaplan have video stream which is very useful...... NCBSN have exotic questions and tricky questions that come out from nowhere...

I haven't take NCLEX yet.... will let you know after NCLEX.. very soon..

Hi Nursing 101,

I have taken both Kaplan and NCBSN. I found both Q-banks very helpful, however, after taking the NCLEX I found most of my questions to be very similar to NCBSN. Good luck to you!:):redbeathe
