Kaplan VS Hurst coming from ATI

Published

Hello all. I will be graduating at the end of the year. Throughout nursing school my particular institution chose ATI as a tool and has begun to grade us at the end of each semester. It may help or not help you in the end of each term. We also have 2 assignments due each semester . I have seen a lot of confusion with questions and their "right answers". It has been brought to attention but I doubt anything will change. My question is which review have you seen more success in not including ATI. I am willing to pay for hurst or Kaplan. Kaplan is coming to my school to talk at the end of October. I am so nervous and need some serious reminders to older subjects!

People have passed with Hurst failed with Hurst and vice versa for other programs. It depends on what kind of learner you are. Kaplan is more of a test taking strategy prep course. Of course they do have videos giving you a recap of sections which we learned about in school but they focus on more of test taking skills versus content.

Hurst is more of a content recap NCLEX prep course. So it depends what kind of learner you are. Do you want to sit through videos such as in Hurst and get a "recap" of all the systems / content areas or do you want to learn test taking skills such as Kaplan teaches.

My school used Kaplan throughout although I know people who still have yet to pass the Nclex. Same with Hurst. Its about what will work best for you :-) Pretty sure each site gives you a little sample of the content which they teach so you might want to check it out.

I am feeling the same way right now I graduate in December but I keep hearing mixed reviews on each test prep course as well. I'm with you that it depends on what type of learner you are
