Archer is good and cheap but, UWorld is great as well. You can buy them both, that's what many do.

Archer and World Look identical. Archer is free for 15 days and then $15 for 2 months I think. I don't remember off the top of my head. I didn't pay for archer - I already had UWorld so I did archer enough to be able to tell my friends..... if you can't afford UWorld - do archer. Archer is new and in time it will be a great competitor to UWorld. At the moment, some of their rationales lack details like UWorld. Don't get me wrong - for $200 I would have chosen Archer and most likely still passed (I haven't taken NCLEX yet). There isn't a lot of difference - but Archer is new to NCLEX (not testing prep though) and they don't have all the rough edges worked out of their questions yet. Oh - and Archer doesn't offer adaptive tests (or they didn't 2 weeks ago), the rest is nearly identical.
Thank you so much. Yes I do see the typo error but is kind of refreshing my mind per knowledge basis. Yes you cant beat that 15 buck for 60 days over 200 buck. Thanks for the feed back

Definitely UWorld over archer any day. Like stated above, maybe in time archer will get better but it’s not great, hence how they can give it away for free/ sell it so cheap. Nobody would pay for the quality that it is currently. Go with UWorld.
LOL you said why give it way. Yes the price is very cheap for people that dont money. Do you see the question informative let remove the rationale aside. Becasue they need to work on it very well. Have you taken NCLEX ? Is Archer question scenerio match up with NCLEX standard? please advice

I’m not sure I understand exactly what you are asking, but in my opinion, no the archer qbank wasn’t comparable to NCLEX questions. That’s my experience. Considering that the NCLEX is high stakes and it’s going to cost a lot of money to repeat it if you fail, I think it is worth it to go for a good product like UWorld or even Kaplan

I used UWorld to prep for the exam and tried Archer Review. I didn't like the rationales in Archer Review. UWorld is better.
