    kaplan focus on how to answer the question in analysis and application. Try not to memorize facts just understand it.All those facts, memorization question are all low lvl question. I'm going to take the exam on nov. I hope I pass it. BTW what school are you from? And also try to master hurstreview, she said just focus on the topic what they discussed. You have to be able to discuss verbally in ur self all the topic in their review..

    I used Hurst, Saunders, and Kaplan. I reviewed info in the first two books then used Kaplan questions to help me figure out where I was weakest. I found the Kaplan questions were closest to what is on the test. The Kaplan questions are supposed to be application/analysis based questions which is what you need more of to pass. I had a friend from Uraguay who took the test 5 times before she passed. It was the language differences that got her, the way the questions were asked confused her and it may be the same for you. She had nurses she knew help her study along with using Hurst. Hope this helps
