1. The information itself is good though.The 7 day free trial is a con and a trap! I subscribed to the free trial to see if this type of thing would help me, and though it was beneficial, it was not the best study tool for me, so I canceled the day before the end of my "free trial." But the Picmonic folks and the Google Play folks obviously teamed up to make money by tricking people, because even though I canceled my subscription one full day before I was to be charged for the year, it was too late and I was forced to pay for a year.
2. To be useful, buy the MD/DO package and make playlists.Using pictures to help remember things is great and all... but it would be FAR more useful if what was going on in the pictures was somewhat consistent to one overarching scenario.
3. I would NEVER be able to memorize so much so fast without Picmonic!!!Super great app! Awesome graphics, easy to learn, quick sections that you can fit easily in between a busy life style.
4. I was able to learn and retain so much in just a matter of minutes.Picmonic saves a ton of my study time! All the hard work is completely eliminated.
5. It would be nice to navigate to the next picmonic from the one your currently on, rather then having to navigate back to the menu.It is an excellent tool, ive been put of nursing school for several years and planning to take the NCLEX and this makes it so much easier.
6. Better than quizlet & chegg!!I have not subscribed to Picmonic yet, but using the 7 day free trial has been very educational.
7. The things going on in many of the pictures are often times so random, that I'm more so just trying to remember what was in each picture than the medical topics they're supposed to help me remember.
8. I enjoy the quizzes, spaced repitition, and the vivid illustrations to help remember key facts.
9. The quizzes help me recall the material after the story, further helping me to remember the information.
10. Picmonic seems to be doing a great job for me while I prepare for my first round of Step/COMLEX exams.
11. But I'm seriously thinking about unsubscribing.Throughout med school everyone has always talked about SketchyMedical but there were so many times where I felt like it was just as much effort (if not more) to memorize their intricate drawings than it was to just memorize the facts.
