Not so good for the free version

4.0 3 years ago

Comments: I start using it to learn french and in the begining it help me a lot because i was only studying vacubalary. But in the with the passing of time when i wanted to do more complex card i can't so i have to use other software for that poruse

Pros:

All the features are easy to use. I love that they include the funtion to search other users study sets so you can use it too. Also all the study modes that it have really help you changing your study type.

Cons:

A lot of the most interesting features that it have are restricted to the premium version so for simple study cards its okay but if you want something more elaborated ones you will be very limited.

Quizlet’s quick engagement

5.0 last year

Comments: Overall this is a classic tool in my teaching toolkit. I use it for teaching vocabulary, revision study skills and gamifying learning.

Pros:

The ability to share and customise sets. Students can create their own or I can modify existing sets. The revision activities are engaging and the team options inspire collaboration.

Cons:

It isn’t as aesthetically engaging as some other quiz sites for young people.

Quizlet 5/10

3.0 last year

Pros:

Integrating quizlet was very easy. It is a very simple application and can be used for many things; learning strategies, testing learning, reviewing items, etc.

Cons:

I felt like there were some issues with the reporting tool and advancing different things. I wanted to do interactive style quizzes, but quizlet didnt offer that. Although it had interactive features and gamification, it wasnt as much as an application like Kahoot or Quizizz

Quizlet makes studying more enjoyable and organized

5.0 10 months ago

Pros:

I liked that quizlet keeps everything in one place. Rather than having flash cards to look through it’s much easier to look at them online and not have to keep up with a physical copy.

Cons:

I don’t really have a complaint for quizlet. I use quizlet plus and feel the price is fair.

Great Practice

5.0 10 months ago

Pros:

I love using this as independent review and practice. It also gives me data for what students missed. There is a large library of already created resources to choose from.

Cons:

I do not enjoy doing this live because when a student finishes they sit and wait.

Great Review Tool

4.0 last year

Comments: Great experience overall. Students love when I allow them to use Quizlet to review.

Pros:

Digital reviews allow students to own their learning and review key vocabulary. I also like the feature where students can create their own digital flash cards.

Cons:

Some of the features are dated. Maybe Quizlet can update their digital games/functions for student vocabulary review.

Pros:

Such a great tool to help study for an exam!

Cons:

Some of the tests practice tests were too easy.

Quizlets

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: I absolutely love the site, it’s a real big help for kids, teens and anyone who’s in school honestly, it’s a nice study guide and cheat sheet if you have take home tests or tests online.

Pros:

I like the functionality of it and how helpful it is on tests and quizzes, you can use it for studying, it’s very versatile and they have tests/quiz answers for literally ANY test given in the US.

Cons:

There are some tests given by instructors that don’t have all study questions/answers on Quizlet or they might not have them in order or the test you have, you might have to scroll through a few questions just to get to a question/answer you’re looking for

Nothing but an A+ with Quizlet!!

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Quizlet got me through some tough classes, I was able to study anywhere at anytime, as long as you have your phone if you have 10 or 15 to yourself you can study which is what I did while I was working. Having that in my back pocket at all times made to squeeze in a little study time at any time.

Pros:

Quizlet is very easy to use, not only can you build custom flash cards in a way that works for you, but you can also share them with others. What I love most is that there are cards from everywhere for every subject that you may need, you will never fail with Quizlet.

Cons:

No cons for me!, I have no complaints, I would recommend this app to everyone anytime, if there were any kinks it was so small that I paid it no mind.

Used it as a teacher

3.0 last year

Pros:

I've used this in school on a few occasions. Works great as a way of checking what they know without it being seen as something "boring".

Cons:

Would always be better to have more templates for easier production of the quizes.

Quizlet Review

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Quizlet is a very helpful tool for students, not only before exams.

Pros:

I used Quizlet to learn almost every subject at the university. Big advantage it that it is possible to share the projects with your classmates which saves them (and you) a lot of time. Everyone can find a way of learning he/she prefers (e.g. matching cards, consecutively browsing flashcards, etc.

Cons:

For students it is pretty expensive tool and the free version is limited (for example it is not possible to put photos to the flashcards).

Gem

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: So since I am a high school student so I have a lot of apps that I use to ofc make my grades higher and use them for review. This is the easiest and best way to learn. I make flash cards for exactly every test. I promise if I didn’t had this app I would fail my bIM class cuz I hate bIM since I have to know many vocabulary so I just make flash cards in quizlet. Best app ever

Pros:

I don’t care what other people say like literally this app is a gem and you can not change my point of view.

Cons:

I love everything about it. There is nothing about this app that should be change.

Quizlet- online learning for exams and tests.

5.0 2 years ago

Pros:

The entire program is a tool to learn questions for test created from people that have take courses.

Highly recommended for students!!

5.0 3 years ago

Pros:

Quizlet is the app/website that helps me get through my classes easily. As I am a student, terms are inevitable. And as much as I love memorization, sometimes, memorizing things can be quite complicated. With the help of Quizlet, I can learn and memorize terms and concepts really easily that it's mind-blowing. They have a gamification-kind of learning, and I think that's what makes Quizlet one of the app/website that can really help students get ahead their peers. Of course, Quizlet is really famous for their flashcards. It's the best thing in Quizlet! You can study your flashcards with their variety of features: "Learn", if you are still aren't that familiar with your flashcards, "Write" for identification, "Spell" to test your spelling skills, and "Test", to test your familiarity with the flashcards! They even let you learn your stuff by playing. Using Quizlet drastically improved my familiarity with the terms used in my classes.

Cons:

Quizlet is the perfect app/website for students! With that said, so far, I do not see anything in Quizlet worth calling as one of their flaws.

Amazing!

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Amazing education platform.

Pros:

The autocompletion tool when creating a quiz is the most important feature for me. A lot of information that I am working on teaching my agent has been used in the past. Not having to type out every direct question / answer saves a lot of manual labor and time.

Cons:

I would like for them to improve their multiple choice selection. Sometimes it doesn't realize when two answers are the same in the set and so its hard to distinguish which one to choose.

Alternatives Considered:

Quizlet is great, but it needs some updates

5.0 3 years ago

Pros:

I like the ability of the app to replicate index cards. Keeps me a lot more organized

Cons:

I think the format of quizlet is a little boring compared to its competitors. I wish there was more of a competitive component like Kahoot

Great study tool for students!

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: I had an overall great experience with Quizlet! I use it to study for every test and find it extremely helpful. I have recommended Quizlet to many other students.

Pros:

Quizlet is a great study tool for individuals to use virtually! Using the "Create set" feature, users are able to make flashcards set for each course. Users are also able to organize their sets into folders which makes finding things extremely easy. Quizlet also makes memorizing definitions easier for students by incorporating different ways of studying. For example, users are able to use flashcards, test themselves and play study games!

Cons:

Although this app is very useful and user friendly, I wish that pictures could be added to flashcards. Unfortunately, without a premium version the user cannot add pictures or bold text in flashcards.

Quizlet is a highly underrated studying tool everyone should be using.

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: Before I got Quizlet I often found myself struggling when it came memory based topics and subjects. Using Quizlet was seamless and streamlined, meaning I didn't have to worry about anything but my study material. I found myself using its its flashcards anywhere I could fid the time, in between class sessions, during free time and even before going to bed. I believe more and more people should know just how amazing a software Quizlet is.

Pros:

the flash cards were easily my favorite feature within the mobile app. Its allowed me to brush up, memorize and easily understand subjects that previously challenged me. That said, I believe the best part about it is the fact that it is free to use.

Cons:

Though highly understandable why they are incorporated, the Ads within Quizlet could be a distraction to students with shorter attention spans. I, for the most part, found no problem with them.

Quizlet for Studying for Major Certification Exams

5.0 3 years ago

Pros:

I liked the ease of use with this product. I like that I can both create and utilize research and study sources from other uses. The review feature is especially helpful when looking to decide between a few custom study resources for the same topic. When studying for the RBT exam, this was my go-to study pick due to the mass amount of study guides, quizzes and practice exams. The rate review feature helped me decide which pages were the most reliable and included the most relevant information.

Cons:

The ads really take away from the service. The ads often block key information from a quizlet and the website could really benefit from grouping the ads so the information is not blotted out when printing guides.
