So I didn’t pass my NCLEX the first time around. I was super devastated but I emailed archer [Archer Review] and they gave me an additional 30 days free! I attended the July three day prep and the second time I took my NCLEX, I passed within 87 questions!

I love archer [Archer Review] because of the visuals and explanations — I’m someone who needs to see and hear what’s going on, and the platform really supported that. I also appreciated the large amount of Select All That Apply and NCLEX-style questions. I would like to see more bowtie and case study style questions added, but I loved that you could switch between different test styles while learning. The remediation was also very helpful for reinforcing weak areas. passed at 85 questions ☺️

I did the 4 weeks review that I have tried to congest in 2 weeks, first attempt I failed. I did the 3 day review after that + another 2 weeks doing practice questions and I passed! Thank you archer [Archer Review]! The 3 day review really helped but also finishing the on demand videos on my first attempt.

I used the Sure-Pass combo to pass the NCLEX! As a second attempt test taker, I needed a strict study schedule, it was so helpful for me to know what I needed to do each day. I watched the videos on topics that I struggled with and I found the 3 day live review so helpful!

I had two subscriptions to prepare for the NCLEX, but I just wasn’t feeling the vibe, so I switched to archer [Archer Review]. I started off with a low passing grade on the initial assessment. I watched almost all of Morgan’s videos — and I LOVED them! Shout out to you, MORGAN! 🙌 I also did the live sessions, which were similar, and joined the 3-day crash review. I practiced with exam questions, some readiness assessments, and a few CAT exams — but the results weren’t always great. I only had a couple of high scores and some borderline ones. During the actual NCLEX exam, I felt frustrated when it didn’t shut off at 85 questions — it just kept going until 150. I knew my answers on the first case study were inconsistent, which probably pushed me to go the distance. After passing the 85-question mark, I started to lose hope and just answered what I could. Honestly, I didn’t even fully read some of the case studies — I just picked what I thought I knew. And then… BOOM! It shut off at 150. 😭 I prepared myself for the worst because of the myth that if you go to 150, you’ve failed. But today, I got my results: YOU HAVE PASSED THE NCLEX-RN EXAM! 🎉🩺 Takeaways: Watch the recorded videos — they really help. When you're ready to take practice exams, go for it, but make sure you learn from the rationales. Don’t get discouraged if the exam doesn’t shut off at 85 — you still have a 100% chance to pass. Most importantly, TRUST GOD.

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.

How is the Archer Review question bank different?

Our question bank has over 3,100 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.
