InstantCert CLEP

Fantastic idea, however I think they hired an entry level app designer or had their intern create it, because it is not good. I consistently get told my answers are wrong even though they are right, it won’t update my “mastered flash cards” vs “kind-of mastered” vs “unknown”. So I have no idea really how my progress is going. When your done with a set and want to return to home, expect to have to close out the app 80% of the time (you’ll lose all your saved data from that session, btw) to simply return to the home screen to go to the next section of the same course, not even a new course, just a new section. Regularly closes out, if you try to swipe right to go back a flashcard, 50/50 it’ll go back to the previous flashcard, 50/50 you’ll exit the whole set and have to start over (progress isn’t saved, yet again). The idea is great, and on my computer (aside from the incompetent individual who wrote the questions utterly lacking any ability to correct your wrong answer with relevant information), it works alright. Still suffering through it tho, cause it’s cheaper than paying for college.

4 years of the same negative reviews and feedback, and nothing has improved. What’s worse is you have to create your account and start your first month’s subscription before you see how truly awful this app is. It’s obvious they take zero pride in their product while also charging a subscription for substandard performance. Just order the REA books on Amazon or go to your public library, there are too many options now to put up with this.

This app is lacking in design for sure, but the flash card function is very cumbersome and it doesn’t even remember where you left off. On top of that, clicking external links on flash cards causes the app to crash. At the very least that part should be fixed.

This app barely gets the job done. None of the filters work, and it logs me out every time. I have to continually re-download the course as well, and just because I get a question mastered does not mean it will mark it as mastered. What I would say is the flashcards are great material, but the app is not good. Use the website instead 😂

On my phone I have no issues however on my IPAD the imbedded links in the questions will no longer open.

This app was perfect for the Bio CLEP. It has an overwhelming amount of information and if you can learn it all, you will definitely be prepared for that monster of a CLEP. The customer service is awesome, too. When I needed to cancel because I had passed my test, they quickly responded and even gave me a refund for the previous billing since it was just the day before. Can’t recommend enough! SO worth it!

This service of InstantCert is great and I am very grateful for the community behind it. However this app has a lot of things that could be improved. 1) First improvement would be if it remembered where you were in your study of the flash cards. I really don’t like having to click on each section and then click on every subsection of where I was studying. It’s a bit of a hassle and Quizlet is much more intuitive in this regard. 2) If the app team could fix the shuffle function on the flash cards. I have not been able to get it to work consistently and sometimes it will just refuse to work. 3) If they could get an actual app login instead of just a mobile browser version of a splash page login. It would go a long way in making this app feel more polished. I recommend InstantCert to everyone I know looking to get some college credits but the app just leaves a lot to be desired.

maybe update the app to match the updated software on the pc version.

This app has lots of content makes it easy to get studying done when away from a desktop. I was able to pass mathematics using this guide. It organizes each topic into a category and gives a certain amount questions/problems to tackle. Wether you get them right or wrong you’ll see an explanation on how to get the solution. The desktop site has a forum section which is a great aspect to talk with other people. FYI for anyone wondering, humanities will be difficult with or without this tool. I recommend utilizing this if you are determined to fast track your degree!

The downloaded materials don’t take you to the reading material needed in order to answer the questions. The audio portion does not work as advertised either. Do not waste your money because cancelling it is also complicated.
