Test remediation is pointless w/o question info.

I find it pointless to remediate tests when I don’t even know what the question was. I have no idea why you are unable to show the question with the correct answer and or the one I chose after we submit a test. I find it insulting if you believe my integrity is less than, however, that’s the response I’ve been given is that it’s for question integrity. However, your programs integrity is much weaker by not providing this information. I followed your program. Suggestions to the max and still do not feel confident in my test taking skills after your program. I actually feel less confident and I believe I have become an even worse test taker ever since going through your in-person program.

My experience with Kaplan was solid

My experience with Kaplan was solid. The video lectures and exam reviews provided sufficient preparation for the NCLEX, enabling me to pass without thoroughly reviewing the content guide. I appreciate Kaplan's commitment to regularly updating their resources and communicating changes in advance. The learning materials are well-organized and logical in structure. Notably, the tutorial on approaching NCLEX questions and managing time effectively was particularly beneficial.
