Kaplan Questions!

I searched everywhere for this, but I can't seem to find it. Any input is appreciated!

I've been using Kaplan for studying for the NCLEX-RN. I've done the first 3 question trainers, a diagnostic, and a ton of Qbank quizzes. I've been doing some of the content review and supplementing with the huge library of textbooks I've collected during nursing school.

My main question is what are the target grades for QTrainers, Diagnostics and QBanks? I can't find it anywhere! I know what percentages I've been making, but I have absolutely no clue what my grades mean. I'm not sure what's considered "doing good" vs "really should improve."

My next question is what is the difference between the NCLEX-RN Content Review Guide and The RN Course Book? We received both books, but I can't quite tell which one I should focus on. I've mostly been taking notes in the content review guide purely because it's purple, and that's my favorite color. I'm sure there's a difference between them, but I can't figure it out! Anyone know?

Thanks everybody! Good luck studying. :up:

    The NCLEX-RN Content Review Guide reflects the 2013 test plan, which became effective April 1, 2013.

    They have said to aim your Q-bank scores around 65%. Any specific content area that you score less than a 55% is a weaker area and needs further studying. On question trainers 1-4 they recommend a score of 65% or higher and Q trainers 5-7 a score of 60% or higher. Some of this information will be in the front of RN Content Review Guide and it also has a study plan depending on how long before you take the NCLEX.
