TWO WAYS TO STUDY

One app. Two ways to study. Zero wasted time.

Coursework Mode

Upload your syllabus, lecture slides, or study notes. Lily extracts the topics your professor is actually covering and builds practice questions matched to your class material. Every session is built around what you need to know for your next exam.

  • Questions built from your uploaded course materials
  • Mapped to your professor's topics, not a generic question bank
  • Prep for class exams while building clinical reasoning skills

Best for: Students in any semester who want to study smarter for class.

NCLEX® Mode

Adaptive practice aligned to the 2026 NCSBN test plan. SBA, SATA, BowTie, and Clinical Judgment case studies that mirror the real exam format. Lily tracks your performance across body systems and nursing processes, so you always know exactly where to focus.

  • Aligned to the 2026 NCLEX® test plan and Next Gen question formats
  • Adaptive difficulty that shifts in real time with your answers
  • Gap analysis shows which body systems and processes need work

Best for: Final-semester students and anyone actively preparing for boards.

Use them together or one at a time. Both modes are included in your plan, and your progress carries across everything you do in Lily.

Adaptive Study Loop

How Lily works

Three steps between where you are today and walking into boards with confidence.

  1. 01

    Upload your notes or syllabus

    Drop in your syllabus, lecture slides, or study notes. Lily maps your course topics automatically. No manual setup needed.

    Your own materials become your personalized study plan.

  2. 02

    Practice smarter, not longer

    Choose Coursework Mode to practice from your class material, or NCLEX® Mode to prep for boards. Either way, Lily builds adaptive sessions that push you just past your comfort zone.

    Strong topics advance. Weak ones resurface until they stick.

  3. 03

    See exactly where you stand

    Your gap dashboard shows which body systems and nursing processes need attention, so you always know what to work on next.

    Every session ends with a clear next step.

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Lily adapts to your level, your classes, and your goals. And keeps your data private.

Adaptive difficulty tracking

Lily adjusts question complexity in real time. Easy topics advance quickly, while weaker concepts resurface in new formats until they stick.

Next Gen Practice

SATA, BowTie, and 6-step unfolding clinical judgment case studies that mirror the real NCLEX® exam format.

Gap Dashboard

Track your exact weak spots across 15 body systems and the full nursing process. Never guess what to study next.

Cohort Mode

Coming Soon

Real-time quiz battles with your nursing cohort. Compete live, track your rank on the leaderboard, and make studying the most exciting part of your day.

Evidence-Based Content

Questions are built using intelligent technology aligned to the NCSBN test plan and cross-referenced with the RxNorm medication database. You get answers you can trust.

Student Outcomes

What you get from day one

  • Day one: upload your syllabus and start practicing from your own course material.
  • Week one: see which body systems are strong and which need more attention.
  • Test day: walk in knowing exactly what you worked on and what to expect.

Wherever you are in nursing school

Lily meets you at your stage and grows with you toward boards.

  • Pre-Nursing, ADN, BSN, and ABSN pathways
  • Timed preparation for final-semester pressure
  • Structured refresh for returning learners

Pre-licensure students

Start here

Every semester, upload your syllabus and use Coursework Mode to study what your professor is actually covering. Lily connects your class material to NCLEX® content areas from day one, so you build boards readiness while you study for exams. Half the effort. Twice the coverage.

Best for students who want to stop backtracking during last-semester crunch.

Final-semester & NCLEX® preppers

Most popular

You're in the home stretch. Switch to NCLEX® Mode, upload your review materials, and run timed sessions that mirror real exam pressure. Lily's gap analysis shows exactly which body systems to drill before test day.

Best for high-intensity prep when every week counts.

Returning learners

Coming back to nursing after time away? Start with Coursework Mode if you're re-taking classes, or jump straight into NCLEX® Mode to rebuild clinical confidence. Upload refresher materials and practice at your own pace. No judgment, just smart practice that meets you where you are.

Frequently asked questions

Lily's practice questions are original, NCLEX®-style items built with smart technology and validated for clinical accuracy. They align with the current NCSBN test plan and cover all major body systems and nursing processes. Questions are developed independently and not derived from actual NCLEX® exam items.

Coursework Mode creates practice questions from the materials you upload, like your syllabus or lecture notes. It's built to help you study for your class exams. NCLEX® Mode is adaptive boards prep aligned to the 2026 NCSBN test plan, with SBA, SATA, BowTie, and Clinical Judgment formats. Both modes are included in your plan, and you can switch between them anytime.

Most prep tools give you a fixed, generic question bank. Lily has two modes: one that creates questions from your actual class materials, and one that adapts to your level for boards prep. UWorld charges $59/month or $249+ for a package. Kaplan starts at $249. Lily gives you coursework study and NCLEX® preparation in one app for $9.99/month after a 7-day free trial.

Lily starts with a 7-day free trial for Full Access. No credit card is required to start. After the trial, Full Access is $9.99/month. You can cancel anytime.

Upload a PDF, image, or document of your syllabus or lecture notes. Lily extracts the topics your professor covers and maps them to NCLEX® content areas. From there, your sessions automatically cover your coursework while building boards readiness. No manual tagging needed.

Yes. You upload your specific syllabus and Lily tailors questions to what your program covers. Lily works for Pre-Nursing, ADN, BSN, and ABSN learners across any accredited program in the U.S.

Your data is never sold or shared for advertising. We only share data with infrastructure providers needed to run Lily. You can delete your account and all study data from settings at any time. You can also email privacy@studywithlily.com.

Lily isn’t a textbook. It’s the bridge between your textbook and boards. Upload your syllabus and Lily creates practice questions from your actual class topics while building toward NCLEX®. Think of it as turning your coursework into active practice.

All major NCLEX® body systems: cardiovascular, respiratory, neurological, gastrointestinal, renal, endocrine, musculoskeletal, immune, and more. Questions span the full nursing process: assessment, analysis, planning, implementation, and evaluation. Plus Next Gen formats: SBA, SATA, and BowTie clinical judgment.

Why study twice when you don't have to?

Coursework Mode for class. NCLEX® Mode for boards. Upload your syllabus and start practicing in under two minutes.
