Kaplan

I have 3 degrees and taught 9 different college courses in 2 disciplines and 3 programs in both 2 and 4 year colleges, and I have never come across a 'course' that is more poorly organized (the whole thing is bullet pointed with little cohesion and low comprehensive value). Plus, the wording of the content is likely to confuse because the qualifiers are often misused or overly prevalent in questions, quizzes and course content. Additionally, they have questions formulated where just one word makes the difference in a long, complex question with four long, complex answers. It's as if they are trying to make the question as difficult to understand in and of itself and not as a content-driven review of material. It's sad. Clearly, this course is not developed by anyone with a modicum of pedagogical experience or educational background.

Scheduled a 2-day class, 2 months out, and they cancelled 30 min prior to start time and had no back up instructor. They reschedule for a date, 30 days out, that was dated after my scheduled exam. I called cs and they advised they only have one class a month and no back up instructors. One class a month and one instructor when we only have 3 months to study.. I'm a single mom, I had to get a babysitter for after daycare and took two days off of work to complete this class, to have them cancel 30 min before and schedule me out past my exam date.. after sitting on the phone for an hour with a cs rep (who was really kind).

Kaplan has been an amazing resource used for my preparation in the MCAT. The amount of interactive videos, practice tests, and amazing staff, in particular Kiarra **, makes this a great investment for your future goals.

Unlike the negative reviews I have read here, I had a wonderful educational experience at Kaplan. I initially earned my Associates degree and went back to earn my Bachelors degree in Criminal Justice, which allowed me the opportunity to step into the top position within my agency. The professors and instructors were great and in fact, I've become life long friends with a few of them and we continue to keep in touch long after I've graduated. Kaplan as well as any other school, is what you make of it. Put in the hard work and you will reap the rewards of your efforts!

Completed Cert IV Mortgage and Brokerage year ago now unemployed and Kaplan require $50 Administration fee to issue a new certificate. Be warned. The certificate was lost in moving interstate looking for work.!!

I completed 11 out of 18 courses at Purdue University and was doing well, 7 As, 2 Bs, and 1 course transferred over. That was up until last semester when I received a C. I am presently enrolled and STRUGGLING. Why? Because the remaining courses use random questioning for test. Which means that the exams do not reflect assigned readings for the current units. My first exam covered content from unit 3 and beyond. The problem was that we hadn't even progressed through the first unit.

I enrolled during Fall 2003 and took 2 courses. I decided to enroll in a local university and they would not accept these courses as a transfer. I was told that this school is only accredited to itself and if I planned to go elsewhere then I shouldn't have wasted my time with this school. I had to retake the 2 courses that I had taken at Kaplan once I got to the University.

I was impressed with Kaplan at first. Was telling me that upon graduation they would help me with my resume, they would help me locate jobs In my field and even help me apply for them. They are of no help whatsoever! They sure do bug for the money though. I do not think I should have to pay. They did not do their job!!. Two years since graduation and still no help!

After speaking with Haley Carrillo on the phone today, I will never re-enroll in Kaplan again. He was demeaning, invasive, and condescending. From the very start of the phone call he was brief and rude. I had first began attending Kaplan after my son was born and I wasn't working. My grades were excellent and I was named on the Dean's List for most of my terms. Fast forward to when I re-enrolled after a two year break, I received a major promotion at work. All of my time went into work and my son, as I am a single mother NOT on any type of government aid or child support! I failed classes simply for not attending. I am not arguing that today. I take accountability and just wanted the chance to finish up the degree (as of 1 year ago, I was 2 classes away). As Haley made the already obvious so clear in his tone, "You know you still have to pay for the F's though, right?" I'm fully aware, which is why I wondering why I was being berated... I'm paying you!
