I have the books and flashcards, but this is great for on the go or if I’m waiting somewhere like a doctor’s office. I haven’t had a chance to use it yet, so I do not know if it is all that good. ### 3/5 — Mistakes on Quizzes *2026-05-29, version 1.3* The quizzes sometimes give the wrong answer as the right answer. Also, there are unrealistic questions on the tests… questions that reference specific obscure Acts and laws that the real test won’t ask us by name. ### 4/5 — Hmmm *2026-04-29, version 1.3* I notice that on some of the questions, the app uses different words to describe a concept than SHRM does. That is a little confusing. ### 3/5 — 3 *2026-04-18, version 1.3* Not a lot of study material for the price ### 3/5 — Not many new questions *2026-01-10, version 1.2* I like the reminder notifications and the different avenues to answer questions but seems like I’m answering the same questions with very few new ones. Very disappointing for the cost. ### 5/5 — Game Changing *2025-10-22, version 1.2* This app is wonderful! It’s easy to study on the go and I am now excited about taking the exam. ### 4/5 — Not too bad *2025-09-19, version 1.2* The questions so far are ok. I do see repeat questions often though. ### 5/5 — Really helpful *2025-09-06, version 1.2* Love the questions ### 4/5 — It would be great if they would link across devices *2025-08-25, version 1.2* Overall this is a great app but I do wish that it would link across devices so I could pick up where I left off. ### 5/5 — Super Helpful *2025-08-20, version 1.2* Having this at your fingertips with daily reminders, tests, practice quizzes and more…super helpful! I this app helped me pass the SHRM -CP exam ### 5/5 — Good content *2025-08-12, version 1.2* The instant feedback is helpful ### 5/5 — Reliable *2025-08-06, version 1.2* Used this for two weeks before the exam and passed. Highly recommend. ### 4/5 — SHRM test *2025-07-16, version 1.2* I passed my test and think this app was very helpful ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I failed the SHRM-SCP *2026-07-11, version 1.3* The app had me at a 99% ready score with a 89% “excellent” answering accuracy and a 91% “test completed”. I went today to take the test and failed miserably. Nothing from this app was on the test. I didn’t know about 80% of the test questions. The apps questioning is not relevant to the test AT ALL! Don’t be like me and use this app and then fail. I also had a study book that I used a little and I also used ChatGPT which was almost the exact same as this app. I’m not sure what the best study material is but it’s not this app! ### 1/5 — review *2026-07-01, version 1.3* Riddled with typos and mistakes, seems AI generated. Some questions don’t make sense. ### 1/5 — App stopped working *2026-04-08, version 1.3* This is my 2nd review. The first was 4 stars due to lack of new questions. Now I’m rating in 1 star because my Take a Test button is grayed out and I can’t take any more tests. I reached out to through Contact Me on March 10th and received a response requesting additional information. I provided the information but have never heard back. I even followed up via email and completed another request. Crickets. I’m so disappointed. Now I have to find another way to study. $89 down the drain. ### 1/5 — Way harder than need be *2026-02-14, version 1.3* I just got done doing my SHRM exam and this prep is way harder than the actual exam. Don’t give yourself the added stress. ### 1/5 — Do NOT purchase! *2025-12-05, version 1.2* There was absolutely nothing in this app that helped me with my exam today. None of the scenarios or questions aligned with today’s exam. ### 1/5 — Not recommended *2025-11-22, version 1.2* Only have 400+ questions, and some answers are wrong. Not recommended ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your $ *2025-11-11, version 1.2* This app never cites it’s questions or answers. It asserts theories as ‘facts,’ and provides vague explanations. I had a stellar prep app for my LMSW and figured for this outrageous price it would be comparable, but I was wrong. Just use free flash cards online and have AI explain to you anything you don’t understand. Unless of course, the test turns out to be of similar caliber, which would be tragic. I suppose I will let you all know after I test if the extra $100 taken from my food fund during a gov shutdown was worth it…. ### 1/5 — Not what you want to use for SCP *2025-07-15, version 1.2* This is probably a great tool for CP but not the tool for SCP. It didn’t help me with the test at all ### 1/5 — SHRM CP *2025-02-15, version 1.1* These questions did not reflect any ofthe questions on the exam I took. ### 1/5 — App started recycling questions a few weeks in. *2025-02-01, version 1.1* I paid for he subscription for this app. Unfortunately, a couple of weeks in, the questions starting cycling again— and I noticed I only had access to 100 questions, even though I paid for the subscription. This was hardly helpful and very disappointing. As others have mentioned, there are a few questionable rationales from some answers and many typos. I also used PocketPrep, which I found to be more helpful. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Super Helpful *2026-08-09, version 1.3* I would buy this twice if I needed to. This app has helped me immensely during my SHRM-SCP prep. Worth every penny! ### 5/5 — Worth it!! *2026-06-19, version 1.3* I primarily used this app for a few weeks prior to my SHRM SCP exam and I passed. Highly recommend this. Being able to go back through your incorrect answers, being able to take multiple tests, and even the question of the day kept me motivated and focused. The Stats feature was super helpful too to see how my studying was trending. ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2026-06-14, version 1.3* This app is super helpful for anyone who has had HR-adjacent tasks in their role throughout their career who is looking to transition into a full HR role. The study tests are designed to help you understand the material and provide real-world examples. I like the app! ### 5/5 — Prep is hard *2026-06-14, version 1.3* Great questions!! Challenging strategy questions. ### 5/5 — Worth every penny / I passed my exam *2026-05-15, version 1.3* I can confidently say this app helped tremendously with my exam prep. I also took a training course, but this app was a huge part of helping me feel prepared and confident going into the exam. I used it whenever I had downtime — waiting in line, at red lights, even at the salon. The convenience and practice questions really made a difference. I took the exam today and passed! I would definitely recommend this app to anyone preparing for the SHRM-CP exam. ### 5/5 — Great App! *2026-04-08, version 1.3* One thing I suggest is making the number of questions and progress through them more accessible, similar to Pocket Prep's stat page, to help with motivation and make progress more visible. ### 5/5 — Passed with this help! *2026-02-14, version 1.3* Great tool ### 5/5 — Make it free *2026-02-08, version 1.3* Make it free! Great up for those of us that are a little rusty. ### 5/5 — Great prep tool *2025-12-26, version 1.2* helped learn how questions would be worded, how SHRM prioritizes and kept me motivated ### 5/5 — Great tool *2025-11-16, version 1.2* This tool is very helpful to build upon knowledge and BASK in preparation for the SHRM CP/SCP --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
