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

Juliet29: I agree with IJEOMA12. If you have money to spend, get both. If you do not want to spend that much for the same passing result on NCLEX, just get Archer. Archer Qbank is the closest you can get to NCLEX. I took my exam 3 months ago and used Archer and Mark K alone and passed easily.

I first learned about Archer from my friends who did both UWorld and Archer together and they swore that Archer Questions are most useful for the type of Qs they test on NCLEX. For this reason and also because I could not afford pricey UWorld, I went with Archer Qbank and that is the best decision I ever made. Archer Qbank changed 3 times during my subscription alone --- they are very fast in editing, updating content, and adding many high yield questions almost every other week. Archer has most SATA ( even more than UWorld), lots of fundamentals and adult health questions on topics that are tested the most. If you look Archer NCLEX Youtube channel, you will know that these are the day to day topics they test the most on NCLEX and these are the topics that you find on UWorld too ? The questions I saw on the exam are strikingly similar to many Qs on Archer question bank.

If you go on facebook, there are hundreds of people these days that swear by Archer. And it is refreshingly, "NOT PRICEY" at all which is a rare find these days. I am writing this detailed post so that many nurses out there who are struggling to come up with money can finally take a breath of relief!!

I am not sure why two commentators above said otherwise but may because they do not have the paid version and newest version of Archer. As you have already noted, Archer has been out now in 8 months and updated more than 10 times during one month of my subscription alone. So it is not true that Archer now is same as Archer in January ?

I will conclude by letting you know what I found on why Archer keeps the Qbank free for 15 days. So about 2 weeks ago, I was getting a 1-year subscription for my younger sister who is going to appear for NCLEX early next year. I wanted to get it soon as I thought they will end their promotion soon. I asked Archer when their price will change and if the sale will end soon??

You know what they said ?- They told me that they want EVERY NURSE to access Archer question bank and they are transparent so they will not charge you to use the Qbank. They do not even charge you automatic renewals. If you like it after 15 days of practice, you have to manually go and purchase it for just $25 for 3 months!. They said the only way they will let every nurse know about it is by letting them access all their 2400 Qs for full 15 days!! You can not beat that offer, this company has my full trust and there is a reason why they are growing too fast--- so when the nurses use it, they really find it is as good as UWorld and when they pass, they spread the word. When they pass, they will tell others that they passed just by spending $25 on test prep, not $200. It is as simple as that. This seems to be a great company with revolutionary ideas and great goals. So I thought I would post my experience with it here. I wish they allowed me to post some Archer Qbank screenshots, I would love to share their questions here to prove my points above --- or even better, you just go out there and get it free girl! I have recommended it to many friends and almost all have passed in the last 2 months and interestingly, most of them passed in 65 to 70 Questions. I wish you all the best, my friend. If you need any help, please feel free to ask.

Absolutely, get their new update. go to the app store and update or contact them to update. I am not sure if you saw, archer adds stuff every day. If I go to previous tests, I will see the same old rationales because I can not update that part. If you see under your unused questions, most of them now have absolutely content-rich and clarifying rationales. I know they change and add rationales every week or so because I got a year's subscription as I find it useful in the unit too while taking care of patients. A lot of my colleagues look at me like how do I know so much ..ha ha. Lot of new questions with long rationales in Archer have very detailed explanations.....heck, they even have videos within some rationales...The questions are actually more challenging and make you really think hard. Best wishes to you!!

Did anyone find Archer Review for the NCLEX-PN in specific helpful? 

I'm starting to find the questions, answers, and rationales worded so weird. I've only used ATI throughout my whole program so maybe someone can shed some light to it. 

in terms of wording and being rather vague, its representative of the actual NCLEX.

Hello I am a new grad about a week now and I was giving myself some time to relax before studying for my NCLEX RN. What should I use to study for my NCLEX UWorld or Archer review ??? I want to pass on the first try!!
