Saunders is great for content review, Kaplan is great for actually learning how to answer NCLEX-style questions...just my opinion. I read the entire Saunders book and after reading would do the Kaplan questions on each focused section then do the Saunders questions...I passed using that concept...
Hey there, I agree with MissMoo I took and passed the NCLEX on my first try on 9/19/2014. I recently posted a review of all the resources I used (Kaplan and Saunders included) --> https://allnurses.com/nclex-discussion-forum/passed-nclex-rn-949861.html . Hope this helps!

So I'm studying using Saunders (the book and the online questions which used to be on a CD, but seem to be completely online now) and Kaplan (the Qbank and in class session). Kaplan questions seem to be MUCH MUCH harder than the Saunders study questions - should I not be bothering with Saunders? For those who took and passed, if you could focus on one or the other, which would you recommend?
