How free NCLEX® practice
works.

The free plan includes 150 adaptive questions a month, forever. Each rationale explains why the correct answer works and why each wrong answer does not, so every question teaches you something.

Study With Lily is not affiliated with or endorsed by NCSBN. Questions are not served raw. Lily runs nursing-specific quality gates for format, answer structure, rationale coverage, NCLEX® classification, duplicate scenarios, and unsafe clinical answer patterns before questions reach practice. Questions are original practice items and are not derived from actual NCLEX® exam content. Study With Lily is built for exam preparation, not patient-care decisions. Confirm clinical guidance with current authoritative sources.
