Did anyone else who has taken the online Hurst review notice that in her "review questions, parts 1-4" section some of the questions are IDENTICAL to those from the Kaplan Question Trainer. She says in the video that all the review questions she is discussing in this section came from the Rayfield NCLEX 101 book she recommends. Well, I probably would not have noticed, but I literally just had finished do Test 5 on the Kaplan QT before listening to these review questions and at least 6 so far have verbatim right off the Kaplan QT (I mean exact wording of each question and the answer choices). Weird, huh? Maybe the Rayfield lady who wrote the recommended book also writes for Kaplan. I haven't done any of the other QT tests so I will be curious to see how many more I recognize. No biggie, just thought this was kind of weird. Good luck to everyone else who is studying for boards. I know we'll do I great!

Hey..It's funny but I have the Rayfield book (awesome review class!! ) and I have the KAPLAN cd from my friend who took the review class (wasn't very happy ), and I noticed that the Kaplan CD has A LOT of questions identical to the ones in the Rayfield book!! That's pretty funny...maybe they get their questions from the same source or maybe Rayfield and Manning write for so many people...who knows :)
Yeah, it seems those ladies sure do get around. I just found 5 more questions identical to Kaplan QT Test 5 in part 4 of the Hurst online review questions. Hey, at least this will push up my scores on my Kaplan tests. :rotfl:

Well I noticed that Hurst questions were similar to the ones on the Meds Online review course.
Kaplan use to sell Rayfields book on the internet so that probably explains why the similiarities in questions.
