### 5/5 — Actual GED exams added

*2026-07-19, version 1.6.5*

I want Peterson app to add actual GED on the list 2024 and beyond 2027

### 3/5 — I like it but

*2025-04-29, version 1.6.4*

I wish you could go back and revisit the test questions and answers at anytime you want to review them and study them.

### 1/5 — Very limited for DSST

*2025-04-24, version 1.6.4*

I subscribed for one month with the impression that this would help me study for a Principles of Finance DSST exam, since it has good reviews and advertisers that option. NOPE! It doesn’t teach you anything on this topic and simply has a bunch of practice exams. I feel like they stole $48 from me and now I have to find some other means to study.

### 5/5 — SAT / ACT

*2025-02-20, version 1.6*

I had a great experience with Petersons. The ACT and SAT courses were great.

### 5/5 — Excellent asvab prep

*2025-02-20, version 1.6*

Really helped me on asvab. Thanks Peterson’s. Highly recommended

### 1/5 — Way Outdated, Not Representative

*2024-08-09, version 1.5.11*

I’ve used this test prep to study for two separate DSST tests. In both cases, the material presented for study has been miserably outdated and not in any way an accurate representation of the material I was actually tested over. The practice exams within the Peterson’s study course had many, many questions that were never touched on in the instructional videos. 

Perhaps it was just the courses I chose to study on (Human Resources Management and Principles of Supervision) but I can’t recommend this at all. 

After taking my second DSST, the testing manager at the school asked what method I used to study. I told her Peterson’s and she immediately said not to use them as she has consistently received similar feedback like this. Wish I would have known that before paying for a month subscription. 

Hope this helps some folks make an educated decision on their method of study.

### 1/5 — Do not pay for this

*2024-06-26, version 1.5.11*

Practice test won’t load at all to have actually paid for this app it it be so slow and not able to access all features is disappointing. I feel like I’ve wasted my money

### 3/5 — FULL OF ERRORS

*2024-03-28, version 1.5.11*

Desperately needs to be revised

### 1/5 — App works intermittently

*2024-03-08, version 1.5.11*

This app has a lot of issues with videos that don’t load properly and intermittently freezing. Customer service is lacking, very disappointing!

### 1/5 — Price

*2024-02-06, version 1.5.11*

I was looking forward to using this app to help me out. But, the prices are way too expensive.
