About us
We are building an NCLEX-RN preparation platform for nurses who were educated outside the United States: free guides, a free diagnostic, and practice questions that are reviewed before they are used.
Why this exists
Internationally educated nurses face a different NCLEX from US graduates. The exam is the same, but the practice context, drug names, units, staffing roles and question style all assume US training. In 2025, first-time internationally educated candidates passed the NCLEX-RN at 47.3%, compared with 86.7% for US-educated first-time candidates.[1][2] Most preparation resources are written for US nursing students. We write for everyone else.
Who we are
The project is led by Aman Thakran, who completed his nursing degree in India and later registered as a nurse in the UK. His experience of international registration pathways shapes what we build. Clinical authority does not come from the founder. It comes from cited evidence and independent, licence-verified clinical reviewers.
How our content is made
- Regulatory guides are built from official sources. Every fee, eligibility rule and statistic links to a dated entry in our fact ledger. See the sources policy.
- Practice questions are written through a documented clean-room process, from open and official clinical sources, and are never derived from commercial question banks or recalled exam questions. See the editorial policy.
- Clinical content is shown only after an independent registered nurse approves the exact version. See how clinical review works.
- Errors are corrected quickly and openly. See the corrections policy and content update policy.
Independence
We are not affiliated with or endorsed by NCSBN, Pearson VUE, TruMerit or any board of nursing. We do not sell recalled questions, promise pass results or claim pass-rate improvements.
How we are funded
During this free beta, the guides and the diagnostic are free and there is nothing to buy. If paid access is offered later, it will never affect what our guides say.
How to check us
You do not have to take any of this on trust:
- Every regulatory statement carries a numbered citation. The "Sources and verification" block at the end of the page names the publisher, the document, the date it was published or revised, and the date we last checked it.
- Statements we could not confirm from an official source are marked unconfirmed in the text rather than quietly rounded into a fact.
- Clinical pages show the reviewer and the date of review, and the approval applies to that exact version. Edit the content and the approval lapses.
- If you find something wrong, the corrections policy tells you what happens next, including the one-working-day removal rule for anything clinically unsafe.
Where we are
The business is run from the United Kingdom, and the guides are written for nurses applying from anywhere. Questions, corrections and press enquiries go to the address on the contact page.
Sources and verification
Each numbered source supports the statements marked with that number. We re-check official sources on the date shown and whenever they change.
