Archer played a huge part in my NCLEX success, I passed first attempt using the Sure pass bundle. its worst every penny.
I tried Bootcamp before Archer, and while I liked both, I felt that Archer's questions were more challenging and more similar to the questions I saw on the NCLEX. I also really loved Archer's Readiness Exam and CAT exam options, and I appreciated that Archer had many different packages to choose from when purchasing because I was only interested in the exams and question bank, so it was helpful to pay less for only that. Overall, I think Archer prepared me best!
One thing I would suggest is more practice questions in each lecture. I really enjoyed going through the lecture videos and when practice questions were included throughout the lecture. Not every lecture included them especially not throughout it. It just helped me stay engaged while watching the lectures and made the lectures even more memorable. Working through the problems with the instructor during the lecture was super helpful. Other than that, Archer was super helpful in clarifying and summarizing topics via the lectures/modules that I learned in nursing school. The questions resembled the NCLEX. I loved the readiness assessments, I believed they really helped in preparing me. I only did 1 CAT exam but it was enough and it felt just like the NCLEX even more. Thank you so much!!
I went to the Archer 3-day live review and did practice questions and CAT tests before my attempt. The look and feel of archer is exactly like the NCLEX, which took some anxiety away.
I religiously did the test banks and CAT and reviewed the rationals and I PASSED in 85 questions. The questions were a breeze and I did NOT have test anxiety after the first 10 test questions on the NCLEX as i felt that archer truly prepared me for the PN NCLEX, i'm definitely purchasing it again for my RN NCLEX!!

Archer review was very helpful. The videos are short and to the point, nothing extra, only what's important. I would recommend that everyone complete the review classes live or recorded, they are very helpful. This review resource was well worth it. Thank you, Archer, review team.
I love Archer!! I passed NCLEX on my first try with 85 questions! I'm an older student that decided to return to school for nursing. Nightingale College provided us with this amazing opportunity to use Archer and I'm forever grateful. Archer was simple to navigate and the questions with rationales were incredibly helpful. I also appreciated the videos. They helped me gain more understanding on questions missed. Thank you Nightingale and Archer for helping me become an LPN!!
Absolutely incredible! I have been out of nursing school for 20 years. I simply had a 4 month refresher course and used Archer to study for the NCLEX. I also work full-time and have several additional commitments. I was able to study for an hour every morning before work, whenever I had a free evening, and then spent every weekend I had studying. I was able to pass, first attempt. The material is so close to the real test. I am going to miss hearing Morgan "Hi, Archer nurses!". My plans are to continue on for my RN and will be back to study with you all soon!
Your NCLEX practice questions looked exactly like the NCLEX exam questions. In fact, I had a harder time with lots of your practice questions. Thank you so much Archer. I'm so glad I chose you as my NCLEX study tool. Easy to use, intuitive, and the results speak for itself. Passed in minimum 85 questions. Woohoo!
I had a great experience using Archer Review to prepare for the NCLEX-RN. The practice questions and readiness assessments helped me identify areas I needed to work on and made me feel more comfortable with the NCLEX question style. I especially appreciated the case studies and SATA questions because my actual NCLEX had many of them. I took my NCLEX and it shut off at 85 questions—and I passed! I’m officially an RN! 🩺🎉 Thank you, Archer Review, for being part of my NCLEX journey!
