Amazing

10/10 recommend, as an anesthesiology resident the app has changed the question game for me

Good tool

Really great study tool. Unfortunately drag and drop function does not work on either my iPad or iPhone

Favorite question bank

Well written questions, thorough explanations, and great illustrations. Well designed app. I reached out to customer service once and was quickly given a solution that greatly exceeded my expectations. I’ve used others like UWorld, Combank, and amboss, but for the price, quality, customer service, app, and all around package, TrueLearn has been my favorite and I keep choosing it over other banks for test prep. For what it’s worth, I wound up in a very highly regarded residency and TrueLearn was 80%+ of my question bank time for level one and two. Now I’m using it for level three and ITE prep.

Great for the SEE/NCE

I was ecstatic to find out this existed for on-the-go studying! Great app with great feedback during quizzes. Love for SRNAs.

TrueLearn helps me Truly Learn ;)

TrueLearn (& Picmonic) has helped me tremendously during my studies. TrueLearn provides detailed explanations for both correct and incorrect answers and that makes this product better than a lot of other NBCOT study materials. I would like to see more updates for the iPad so we can have the same functionality across device.
