Why students switch

Big banks sell volume. This one sells finishing.

A 6,500 question bank sounds impressive until you work out how much of it you will actually see before your test date. This library is built to be completed, and then remembered.

One author, one voice

Written by a nurse you can name

Every item is written or reviewed by Anna Curran, RN, BSN, PHN, a former ADN and BSN nursing instructor. No contractor patchwork and no style whiplash between questions. The voice that teaches you your first question teaches you your last.

Finishable by design

Short modules in every track

Ten questions per module, whether it is a TEAS math set, a nursing school unit quiz or an NCLEX body system. You can see the whole map, work it, and finish it before your test date instead of drawing from a queue that never ends.

Rationales, not answer keys

Every option explained, every time

The best answer is the easy part. Each option that is not the best choice gets its own written rationale, addressed on its own terms. On the exam the skill is not recognizing the right answer. It is ruling out the ones that looked right.

Inside the member dashboard

You will always know what to study next.

Accuracy is measured on first attempts only, weakest category first, and every bar carries a written label so you are never reading color alone. This is the screen that turns a wrong answer into a plan.

Overall accuracy
72 percent

First attempts across all nine courses. This is your accuracy in this question bank. It is not a prediction of your licensure exam result.

Try the questions

Work four questions, no signup and no email.

One prioritization item, one pharmacology item, one trend item, and one bowtie case, so you can see the formats and judge the rationales for yourself before you decide anything. Then 16 more on a separate page if you want a longer set.

Prioritization

Management of Care – Prioritization

A nurse on a medical surgical unit receives report on four clients at the start of the shift. Which client should the nurse assess first?

Pick an answer. All four rationales open, not only the one you chose.

Pharmacology

Pharmacological and Parenteral Therapies – Adverse effects

A client with heart failure takes digoxin daily and was started on furosemide three days ago. The client reports nausea and says the ceiling lights look like they have yellow halos around them. The most recent potassium is three point one mEq per L. Which action should the nurse take first?

Pick an answer to open all four rationales.

Next Generation – Trend item

Physiological Adaptation – Postoperative complications

A 58 year old client is recovering from an open abdominal hysterectomy. The nurse reviews the record at three points after surgery.

MentationAlert, orientedAlert, oriented, tiredOriented to person and place only

Which finding, taken together with the others, most requires the nurse to escalate now?

In a trend item the single reading is rarely the point. The direction is.

Next Generation – Bowtie case

Physiological Adaptation – Endocrine

A 24 year old client with type 1 diabetes comes to the emergency department after two days of vomiting. Blood glucose is 486 mg per dL, pH is 7.21, bicarbonate is 12 mEq per L, potassium is 5.4 mEq per L. Respirations are deep and rapid at 28 breaths per minute, the breath has a fruity odor, and mucous membranes are dry.

Part one: what the findings add up to. Choose one.

Part two: which actions you take. Choose two.

Bowtie targets score one point each. A wrong placement earns nothing but subtracts nothing, so you should fill in every box even when you are unsure. That is the opposite of a select all that apply item, where a wrong selection cancels a correct one.

Part three: which parameters you watch. Choose two.

One client, three linked questions. That is the bowtie: what it is, what you do, and how you would know it worked. There are ten bowtie and trend practice modules inside.

Free readiness diagnostic

Find out which nursing subject is actually holding you back

Fifty questions across eight core nursing subjects, with each subject scored on its own. The number that matters is not your total. It is the gap between your strongest subject and your weakest one, because that gap is where the studying should go.

  • Eight scores, not one. A single total hides the one subject that is quietly sinking you.
  • A rationale for every option. Including the distractors you were deciding between.
  • Thirty six pages, free. No purchase, and it is yours whether or not you ever subscribe. About sixty minutes, worked cold.

The difference that matters

Medical-surgical review organized by body system, not by a shuffled queue.

When your unit exam is on the renal system, you should be able to open the renal system. Thirteen systems, ten modules each, ten questions per module, and the module codes are shared with the matching flashcard decks so a deck and its questions always cover the same ground.

Cardiovascular 100 Respiratory 100 Neurologic 100 Gastrointestinal 100 Renal and Genitourinary 100 Endocrine 100 Hematologic and Oncologic 100 Perioperative Care 100 Fluid, Electrolyte, Acid-Base 100 Musculoskeletal 100 Immune and Infectious 100 Integumentary and Burns 100 Sensory 100

Thirteen systems at 100 questions each, 1,300 questions in 130 modules. Every question also carries its client needs category, so the same item can be studied for a unit exam by system or for licensure review by category. Module counts exclude course finals, which draw on questions already counted.

21 printable cheat sheets

Reference values are free everywhere. The nursing action is the product.

Anyone can hand you a normal range. These sheets put the thing you actually have to do next to the number, because a potassium of three point one mEq per L is not a fact to memorize, it is a reason to hold a dose and pick up the phone.

Built to print and carry on a clipboard: clean in black and white, still legible after a photocopy, and rhythm sheets drawn on a standard ECG grid. Lab values with the action attached, drug classes by prototype, and rhythm reference.

Reference ranges vary by facility. Follow your own institution’s standards.

From the lab values sheet

ValueRangeWhat to do about it
Potassium3.5-5.0 mEq/LBelow 3.5: hold digoxin if ordered, assess for weakness and flat T waves, and question the next diuretic dose before you give it.
Sodium135-145 mEq/LBelow 120: seizure precautions, hourly neurologic checks, and never correct rapidly. Fast correction causes the harm.
Digoxin0.5-2.0 ng/mLAbove 2.0 with nausea or yellow visual halos: hold the dose, check the potassium, notify the provider.
Platelets150,000-400,000/mm3Below 50,000: bleeding precautions, no intramuscular injections, no rectal temperatures, soft toothbrush only.

Four rows from one of 21 sheets. Every sheet carries a what to do about it column.

Worked example from the Dosage Practice Lab

Order: Amoxicillin 375 mg by mouth every 8 hours.
On hand: 250 mg per 5 mL oral suspension.
Give how many mL for one dose?

375 mg x (5 mL / 250 mg)
= (375 x 5) / 250 mL
= 1875 / 250 mL
= 7.5 mL
The error the lab is built to catch: dividing 375 by 250, getting 1.5, and typing that. The 1.5 is how many supply units you need, not how many milliliters. It still has to be multiplied by the 5 mL the supply comes in.
Dosage Practice Lab

You type the answer. There is nothing to guess between.

Multiple choice dosage practice teaches you to recognize a plausible number. Typed answers make you produce one, which is what the medication room requires. Every answer is followed by a full worked solution using dimensional analysis, set up the same way every time.

Seven calculation types: unit conversions, tablets and capsules, oral liquid doses, reconstitution, intravenous pump rates, weight based doses, and safe dose range checks. Drill one type, mix all seven, or sit a timed practice set. A rebuild missed mode makes a fresh set from the problems you got wrong, and the lab varies the numbers rather than handing you the same problem twice in a row.

Who writes this

You have probably already studied with Anna.

Anna Curran, RN, BSN, PHN is a former ADN and BSN nursing instructor. Since 2012 she has published more than 600 free care plans at NurseStudy.net and teaches 59,000 subscribers on YouTube. NurseStudy Prep is the paid layer on top of that free teaching: one membership from the TEAS and HESI A2 through nursing school to the NCLEX-PN and NCLEX-RN, held to the same standard as everything else she publishes.

Every item here is written or reviewed by her. That is the reason the voice does not change from your entrance exam to your licensure exam, and the reason every option gets a rationale instead of only the correct one.

“If a rationale does not teach you why the wrong answers were wrong, it is not a rationale. It is an answer key.”

Before you start

A few straight answers.

All of them, in one membership: TEAS 7 and HESI A2 entrance exam prep, nursing school unit quizzes with ATI and HESI practice tests, NCLEX-PN for LVN and LPN students, and NCLEX-RN. There are no tiers and nothing is sold separately.
Yes. It includes 100 questions written for practical nurse scope, plus RN bank questions that were kept only when the correct answer is within LVN and LPN scope. It is organized by the NCLEX-PN client needs categories and has its own 85 question timed simulator.
No. Real NCLEX, TEAS, HESI and ATI items are secure and are never published, and any product claiming to have them is misrepresenting itself. These are original questions written in the style and formats of each exam, including NCLEX bowtie and trend items.
TEAS 7 and HESI A2: 1,040 practice questions plus timed practice exams. Nursing school: 1,580 unit quiz questions across 14 courses plus 8 ATI and HESI practice tests. NCLEX-PN: 1,782 questions plus an 85 question simulator. NCLEX-RN: 1,800 questions in 180 modules plus 100 Next Generation items and an 85 question simulator. Practice tests and simulators draw from the banks. Counted in the live catalog on 2026-10-03.
First attempts only. The first time you answer a question is what counts toward accuracy. Repeats are recorded in your practice history but are not scored, so working a module a second time cannot inflate the number. A course reads Building signal until you have answered at least ten of its questions, because below that a percentage is noise rather than a strength or a weakness.
You choose a plan and enter a payment method, and you get two days of full access to everything. Your plan then begins automatically unless you cancel before the trial ends. You can cancel at any time, before or after the trial, from Billing in your account, and access continues through the end of any period you have already paid for.
No. It is an 85 question timed session drawn across all nine courses and weighted to the 2026 test plan, and it is there to give you sustained testing practice and to show you which areas to revisit. It does not produce a readiness score and it does not predict a licensure result.
No, and be careful with anyone who says otherwise. What it does is give you a bank you can actually finish, a written rationale for every option so you learn something from every miss, and a timed session to find soft spots before test day does.
No. It is review and practice built to sit alongside your course. It does not replace course instruction, clinical judgment, or provider guidance.

Two days. The whole library. Your call.

Open the questions, read the rationales, sit the simulator, print a cheat sheet, work the Dosage Lab. If it is not the thing you reach for before an exam, cancel before the trial ends.
