So, I purchased it in pieces before it was sold like it is now. I have tried to use it to study for the NCLEX and I can't for a very dumb reason. When I pick a question and look at the answers and it gives me the rationale - it changes the answers around and interrupts my train of thought. It does however contain a number of simulated NCLEX tests that you can take and there are around 6000 questions. It isn't the content that is a problem for me - its an error in my head that prevents me from learning because things move around.

During school I used their content a lot. I would read my powerpoints, read my text and then I would listen to their information on the topic. Sometimes I would listen to them first because they would explain it in a way that I understood and then I would go read my textbook.

I also plan to use their stuff after I graduate because they just have a lot of useful information shoved in there. If you can afford it - then go for it because their content is super helpful. The only thing that is not helpful for me is the NCLEX review. I do use the simclex tests I just don't do my questions on there. Archer review is currently free for 15 days and then $15 for 2 months. It looks just like uworld. If you have the same problem that I do, archer may be a good inexpensive supplement when it comes time for the NCLEX.

Again - it has NOTHING to do with their content. They have all sorts of cheat sheets and helpful crap that is just amazing. Honestly - they are super responsive to emails and if I emailed they may even have a solution. I just haven't done it because I don't want to be that big of a pain in the butt. See if you can do a trial or something. Jon used to come on here all the time - I don't know if he still does or not. You can also sign up to get their freebie every Friday. They email you some sort of cheat sheet.

Oh - and it is NOT to early to prep for the NCLEX. If you get Nursing.com - start on that 6000 question bank now. It will certainly help you through your senior year!! Holler if you have more questions.

@bitter_betsy ; absolutely my thoughts too. Archer is an excellent practice tool. Archer pricing is ridiculously low and I was told the idea behind it is that they want each and every nurse to benefit from it. The newly updated Archer is having much deeper rationales and I see they keep updating the app/ questions and rationales every week.
