Kaplan or UWorld?

I have been using Kaplan for quite some time. My grades used to be terrible, but have improved quite a bit. For example, I just took question trainer #4 and got a 70.7. But now that my grades have improved, the rationales seem to be lacking for me. I have read a hit in here about how great UWorld's rationales are and was wondering if I should drop Kaplan and study with UWorld. I test in 13 days. Any help and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Liz.....what were ur scores like? How many questions did u do? Did ur grades improve?

I also test Dec 19th but for LPN. I will use UWorld starting now! Too bad I didn't hear of this before today. Good luck!

actually, UWorld is only for RN :(

I did Kaplan and failed twice I love UWORLD way more detailed and understanding. I will keep you updated on my results, Pray for me my exam is tomorrow I feel much more confident!

Good luck! You've got this! How have your scores been on UWorld?

My scores were low 40's when I started on December 1st and now 60's and higher I'm telling you UWORLD is the best in my opinion

I just started UWorld a week ago. I've gotten two tests in the 40's, one this morning with 11 of 20 questions as SATA! But the average was only 41, so I still scored about it. All other scores have been mid 50's to mid 70's.

I also like the fact it get you ready for the SATA questions, I used to be scared of them now I'm ready

where are you located? I ask because a lot of us NYC test takers had a lot of infection control and delegations

I'm a Kaplan grad but UWorld is the bomb.Unfortunately I did not pass on my 1st attempt, but I have learned alot from UWorld & now know I must read all rationales. Good luck to everyone testing soon.

I'm getting discouraged. The majority of my UWorld grades have been good, if not really good. But I get the occasional crappy grades. Like my last two test were below the average. I have been studying every single rationale, right or wrong. To say the least, it is not confidence inspiring for my test, which is now 6 days away.
