This course was invaluable and well worth it. I am not sure whether I have passed this time, but I have really taken the advice on board… and how to do it the American way...

I failed the exam the first time… (and) think I was in blissful ignorance when I failed the first time. This practice exam really prepared me for the exam 2 days later. I was in no doubt this time as to exactly what was expected of me (in the exam).

I would recommend this course for those people who have graduated outside the US and are planning to sit the CS exam. Despite some negativity on occasion, I am still glad that I chose to do this exam. There are well structured fellowship programs in the US, with a great emphasis on trainer responsibility. US residents work in excess of 80 hours each week with less annual leave, but really get their money’s worth when it comes to learning and training.

Helen emailed Kaplan on 1st February, informing us that she had passed her exam.

The Step 2CK exam is a hard examination and can be easily underestimated especially if having just prepared for or passed the Step 1. It is anything but easy however and you have to prepare extremely well to have a chance of passing even if you are British-trained. The question stems are very long and the material has to be grasped well otherwise one will struggle. I found the Kaplan Step 2CK course useful as it enabled me to focus on topics that I was weak on. I found the lecture material very useful. There is a vast amount of material there and it would be impossible to go through everything but if I had more time I would have tackled more questions. Everyone studies differently but the Kaplan Step 2 CK course can be a very useful adjunct to book reading in preparing for this exam.

Every internationally trained nurse with dreams of going to America should make Kaplan their first step in that dream.

I found the classroom review very helpful. It helped me understand the difference between passing and failing level questions. The decision tree was a great help, the question and answer review in class with various tips from Trisha stayed with me as I studied.

On my exam day, as I answered the questions, I could see I was answering a lot of passing level questions. I was thrilled to find out I had passed.

I just wanted to pass on some news of my recent GMAT score.

In my diagnostic test I scored 590, and I recently achieved 720 in the official test with a 5 for the essays!

I am very happy with the result and can attribute much of it to great teaching.

I attended the 5day live course in June and took the exam in August and passed on the 75th question. The commitment and dedication of the Kaplan staff, especially Patricia in helping students pass the NCLEX is exceptional. The entire curriculum including reading materials, Qbank questions, tips given in class and the Kaplan Decision Tree were very instrumental in my success. Before the course I lacked confidence and did not believe I could pass the first time. I found the Kaplan course very effective, good value for money, and makes Nurses like me realize their dreams of working as a Registered Nurse in the US. I will strongly encourage anyone preparing for the NCLEX exam to purchase the live and online course – It’s an investment they will never regret.

It's almost a year now since I took the 5 day live course held in London . It's a really nice experience to take the Kaplan review. The online course, books and Qbank really helped me a lot. What more can I say an excellent nursing curriculum, supportive staff and an excellent live course tutor, Patricia Barasch. I passed my exams last December so i highly recommend to friends who will be taking the exams take the Kaplan course in order to go through to the NCLEX.

I studied with Kaplan in August and had a few coaching sessions with you in October. I wanted to get into the Columbia/LBS EMBA-Global Program, (in fact it was the only school I applied to) and have received a letter this morning informing me that I have been accepted. I am over the moon!

Before embarking on the course at Kaplan my baseline score was 490. After attending the 2 week intensive course and our one-to-one sessions I managed to achieve a 690 in the actual exam. I have no doubt that this played a significant part in my application and am really pleased that I chose Kaplan. I would reiterate my previous comments that I have been very impressed by the quality of the tuition, the materials and the helpfulness of the staff.

I'm really relieved that I managed to pass the test first time and I'm certain that the Kaplan course played a major role in that result. So much so that I'm letting my colleagues that are taking the test know all about Kaplan and recommending the course to them.

Just a quick note to say a big big thank you to Kaplan, as I have just found out that I got into LBS. Everyone at Kaplan has been so helpful in terms of helping me pass my GMAT, and also providing the admissions consulting. All the staff have been so friendly and knowledgeable on all sorts of application strategies!!
