Kaplan vs. NCLEX

Hi everyone,

I am a recently graduated nursing student from a BSN program in PA. I am scheduled to take my NCLEX exam at the end of June. Right now I am enrolled in the Kaplan course at my school. I was hoping those who took the Kaplan course and then took their exam after could offer some advice. Are the questions in Kaplan (Q bank, QT trainer) harder than those on the NCLEX? I have just started studying and it took me two days just to get a score on the Q bank questions of 60%. When I attend class I sometimes wonder why I slaved through four years of nursing school if I cannot answer the practice questions correctly! Losing confidence over here and need some advice/reassurance that I made the right decision in using Kaplan!

Sincerely,

worried new grad.

    Did you watch the videos for Kaplan yet? The test taking workshop and strategies? Those two are recommended to watch prior to starting the class. Do you have the content review guide yet? Chapter two lays this all out (though few people seem to get into this prior to class). You should be aiming for 60% (our instructor said 65% for everything except for QTrainers 6&7, but Kaplan says 60% across the board). Have you taken your first Q Trainers yet? You should have been through the first 3 and have taken the Diagnostic before starting class as well.
