# Monster Math 2 vs TSI Math Test Prep

Monster Math 2 and TSI Math Test Prep both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 63% of Monster Math 2's written reviews are positive against 39% of TSI Math Test Prep's. Monster Math 2 also leads on ratings volume (6.5K vs 372) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Monster Math 2 sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $59.99 per year and TSI Math Test Prep sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

TSI Math Test Prep holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Monster Math 2 has 6.5K ratings behind it against 372, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Monster Math 2's written reviews are positive against 39% of TSI Math Test Prep's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Monster Math 2 ships an update fortnightly, TSI Math Test Prep every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
