You can take Kaplan if they are available in your area. They have online classes too. It is not widely recommended because of the price. But if you want to invest for your future, it's up to you. Or you can go to NCSBN.org, where they offers online classes. I used Kaplan and Saunders. They have been very helpful. It helped me strategically organized my review sked. It also helped me what topics to take concentrate more. Kaplan taught me test taking techniques while Saunders gave me the opportunity to apply the techniques.

God bless

I would try Suzanne's program. I used it and find out Friday if I passed. She has a high success rate. Look at the Sticky posts at the top of the forum.

Best wishes to you!

How long ago did you test? I would give yourself a small break before you start preparing again.
