After watching the archer [Archer Review] tutorial, I subscribed and found the Q-bank and rationales to be the most helpful feature. My school NCLEX reviews were with Kaplan and Hurst, and while they were great resources I found that they didn't provide the depth in rationales that Archer did. I also really enjoyed seeing which questions were deemed "easy", "medium", or "hard". Would absolutely recommend to anyone preparing to take the NCLEX-RN. I passed my first attempt in 85 questions and I believe scoring "high" and "very high" on the readiness assessments greatly boosted my confidence come test day. Thank you, Archer!

NCLEX Felt Just Like archer [Archer Review]! Honestly, taking the NCLEX felt like doing another Archer Readiness Assessment. Out of all the resources I used to prepare, Archer was by far the most accurate—especially in terms of question format, difficulty level, and case study style. I used practice questions from two different sources, but nothing matched the NCLEX like Archer did. I was genuinely surprised at how closely the Next Gen case studies on the actual exam mirrored the ones I had practiced in Archer. If you're looking for a resource that feels like the real deal, Archer is 100% it.

I was someone in nursing school who barely got by for all exams, and had such bad test anxiety. I decided to get the SURE Pass from archer [Archer Review] and study for 3 weeks. I watched every single lecture and did the 3-day live lecture. I did readiness assessments everyday to test where I was at. Went from lows and baseline at the beginning to a total of 14 highs and very highs before I tested. Passed first try in 85 questions thanks to Archer!

How do the live and on-demand lectures work?

Students in Intense Prep have access to two 2-hour live review lectures per week. The option to join live allows them to interact and ask questions with our instructors in real time and keeps them on track by enhancing accountability. Recordings are offered for all live lectures that the student is unable to attend.

What is a small group session?

Small group sessions are dedicated to reviewing testing strategy, prioritization, delegation, select all that apply (SATA) questions, and other challenging subjects with an assigned tutor. With a small group of students, you can get to know your tutor, build a relationship, and ask personalized questions. Small groups meet twice per week on Mondays and Wednesdays for the 6 weeks of the Intense Prep program.

What is a feedback video?

Feedback videos are emailed weekly by the tutor to each student. The tutor will review Q-Bank progress and testing scores along with strengths and weaknesses, offering recommendations on how to improve scores. The feedback videos are personalized to each student and reflect their weekly progress and testing scores.

Students also receive a downloadable eBook which includes learning activities such as worksheets, case studies, skeleton notes, cheat sheets, and flashcards.

How often does Intense Prep Start?

To see upcoming Intense Prep start dates, please visit our Intense Prep page on our website. Ensure your spot by promptly signing up for a small group session upon product purchase.

How is the Archer Review question bank different?

Our question bank has over 1,600 practice questions, including traditional and NGN item types. They can be arranged by subject and lesson or by the areas of the NCLEX test plan to ensure students can customize their practice based on their individual study needs. All NCLEX-style questions, including alternate format and NGN items, are included. We emphasize understanding the why behind each answer choice in the rationale, so students gain a deeper understanding of the content as they utilize the question bank. Answer rationales also include images and videos for visual learners.

How do the Readiness Assessments work?

Students receive unlimited readiness assessments^. As long as they have unused questions remaining in the question bank, they can take a learning assessment. Our software pulls 85 questions from the appropriate client needs categories and creates a simulated 85 question NCLEX. At the end of the simulation, the student receives a predictor score telling them their chance of passing the NCLEX. The goal is to get 4 highs or very highs consecutively, which is an excellent indicator of your readiness to take the NCLEX exam.

How can students monitor their progress?

Students can monitor their progress through the statistics dashboard. This will give them a breakdown of how many questions they have answered correctly or incorrectly in each subject and lesson. After completing the assessment, they can further analyze each learning assessment by clicking ‘Test Analysis.’ This will provide graphs showing their progress in each subject and lesson. They will also see the number of times they changed their answer choice from correct to incorrect or incorrect to correct. Lastly, they may sort the questions from the learning assessment from easy to difficult to see at what point they started answering incorrectly.

How does Archer Review stay current with NCLEX changes?

Archer Review closely monitors all NCSBN communications. Updates are made quarterly to ensure students receive the most current, accurate review possible.

When should students enroll in Intense Prep?

The Intense Prep program is best for students with at least five hours per day to study and plan to take the exam in the next 2-3 months. We recommend students take the course at the end of their nursing school curriculum just before the NCLEX.
