See what other prepathon participants have to say!

Participating in the Prepathon was a game changer for my NPTE prep. It helped me identify my weak areas, improve my test taking speed, and build confidence under pressure. The focused review and real exam-style questions made a huge difference and I truly believe it played a key role in helping me pass the NPTE on my first try.

The TrueLearn preparation made me feel so much more confident during my exam preparation. I was able to have a simulated test experience that allowed me to get used to the styles of questions used during the actual exam. The explanations provided for each answer, both correct and incorrect, allowed me to understand what topics I had mastered and what I still need to work on.

Participating in the prepathon was a quick way to get an idea of what my focus should be as I study moving forward. The simulated Praxis experience is good exposure to prepare for what the exam will really be like, particularly the timed element. The score report I given at the end of the test really helped me tailor my study approach.

Who knew prepping could be this fun?

As a student preparing to take the NCLEX, this practice exam helped prepare me on what to expect. It was easy to access and navigate the platform. I also really liked how we are able to review each question in the assessment, read the explanations, and see which questions we missed or answered correctly.

I love TrueLearn. I bought a subscription because there are so many SATA (select all that apply) this really helps me answer those type of questions. I also love how the test analysis can you tell you what subjects need more help and which subjects you have mastered.

The questions that TrueLearn provides were invaluable to my studying for the NPTE. The vast array of topics helps to fill-in the gaps that other common study sources do not cover. I was very successful on my exam thanks to TrueLearn.
