It takes forever to load, it doesn't even teach you anything, it explains things in the most complicated way. It's so bad I actually (don't) feel bad for it

SOOOOOOO PICKY
April 29, 2025

I-Ready's pickiness can be understood in terms of its adaptive and highly personalized approach to student learning. The program's diagnostic assessment adjusts the difficulty of questions based on each student's responses, offering easier or harder questions depending on their performance. This selectivity aims to pinpoint the student's exact skill level so that the subsequent personalized instruction can be tailored precisely to their needs, allowing students to learn at a comfortable pace with lessons targeted to their specific gaps and strengths. However, this pickiness can sometimes lead to frustrations, as the program's rigid adaptation and lengthy lessons may not always align perfectly with individual student preferences or learning styles, potentially causing stress or disengagement for some users

Mind-Numbing Garbage
April 28, 2025

Student here. I have firsthand experience with this slop. Everyone at my school hates it. Even my teachers agree it's terrible. I feel as though i-Ready has actually made me dumber. In conclusion, $#*! i-Ready.

I DISPISE IREADY
April 28, 2025

This website is a complete waste of time and energy. Students are forced to sit behind a laptop and use this website to "Teach" them. This does not follow most students learning ability. From my experience this website has only made test scores go down and stress go up. This should not be recommended across the country let alone at any school. Please do not assign your students Iready's

I-ready is a bad platform, and I would recommend IXL over I-ready. I-ready actually lowers your understanding of various concepts in Math and ELA. The narration is slow, and it is just a waste of time and money.

This is a stressful app and you can't go back to see your child and what she/he needs to work on. There is no point of this app if the kids are stressed out and anxious about completing a lesson. The app is trash and who ever made it should shut it down.

Brain breaks terrible
March 31, 2025

The brain breaks in the I-ready diagnostic are terrible they used to be fun video games but now its just some dumb old balloon breaths I don't really care about I-ready so I would have given them 3 stars but because of the brain breaks changing I'm giving it 2 stars After all (I think) most kids in the world and all the kids in my class room agree with me now whenever I'm doing a diagnostics I know there's nothing to look up to so please write more bad reviews about I-ready brain breaks (Note the picture on the left of Add photos or a video is the I-ready new brain breaks the left are the old ones)

I-ready is one of the worst websites for learning out there. It doesn't teach you anything and all of its lessons are stupid and annoying. The quiz is mostly things they didn't even teach you, so you will be stuck on a lesson if you don't google everything. I hate this website.

VERY BAD DONT USE
March 19, 2025

Hello I am Parker Solomon, a fifth grade student going into middle school.
First of all, Iready is now being used to put me in my middle school classes. I am an A- student but I get "garbage "i-ready scores according to my teacher. I will get terrible classes and I will have to use "Iready pro" which is for below grade level middle schoolers and high schools. I Really dont want to do this crap in middle school because regular Iready is also now in middle school. Also, It takes so long to go up levels that I haven't even went up a level this school year while people who get kindergarten levels jump up to 8th grade and my teacher doesn't question them.
