I graduated from the Kaplan location in Lincoln in October of 2015. Due to some issues with the DON and documentation I was unable to test for boards until this month 02/2016. During that four months I used the POINT from Lippincott, Kaptest, and some flash cards that I picked up at Barnes and Noble. I had thought that I was doing well and was on track to pass. Not so much. I got all 265 questions and failed. I have been an LPN since graduation from Kaplan Omaha in 2010. That NCLEX I passed with 75 questions. I know my content, but always seem to second guess myself. Pearson Vue says that there is a 45 day waiting period. During this time I want to try something new, because what I was doing didn't help. I've been told about the Hurst review and thought about giving that a try, but it is a $300- $350 expense. Has anyone tried it? Is it really worth the money? Are there any other reviews that anyone can suggest? I know I'm not stupid, but dear lord it felt that way when I saw the results. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
