kaplan questions

Published

Hi all,

I was wondering if someone who has taken the exam before and also done kaplan can help me with this. I am testing for nclex rn in less than 2 weeks and i am not sure about the questions in the qbank. are they similar or are they a bit harder than the nclex exam?

As i have been preparing, my scores have stayed roughly the same in above 60%-69%. i have scored 56 and 59 as well on rough days. What are my chances of passing?

No prob. Kaplan has a lot of data question. To be honest I am crap at them but I hope I will

do better in the exam. It is a very good critical thinking review. Knowing your core is good foundation but the questions are going to be at an application/ analysis level so that is what Kaplan prepares you. I will let you know the verdict after I have given the exam

Awesome! Lastly, do you know the name of the free kaplan app?

And all the best to you! As one of individuals that commented, you seem prepared and readynamic to take on nclex!

Hello, I am to take the nclex for the second time and my school provided Kaplan. Initially I dismissed Kaplan because I was stuck in my ways and the information and format was hard to get use to. However since I have taken the nclex and had the whole 265 and near passing in all areas except pharm. I can tell you that the actual lay out reminds you of Kaplan as if you are home taking trainers and qbank questions. Looking back I knew I was failing because some of my questions were easy how ever I did have sata and hotspots and drag and drops. The report and even Kaplan taught me that I was definitely fighting hard but not thinking critically enough being the fact I had the whole exam and my report indicated near passing in all but pharm. I have definitely created a study plan stuck to it still using Kaplan and its content review as well as Saunders and the 35 page study guide. I have since then schedule my exam for October and even had Kaplan to allow me to take another diagnostic exam as well as readiness exam. I believe there are different strokes for different folks but Kaplan is it for me. I feel much more prepared and confident this go around. I hope this helped and please you all pray for me and I will keep you guys posted on my progress and hopeful passing of the Nclex.
