Overview

Keslaly publishes selected student outcome and satisfaction metrics collected through a combination of:

  • internal platform analytics
  • customer surveys
  • user-reported outcomes
  • product usage data

The purpose of these metrics is to help prospective students understand how active users interact with the platform and perceive its usefulness during exam preparation.

Unless otherwise stated, all survey metrics below are based on responses collected during Q4 2025 from active paying customers.

Survey methodology

Survey population

The survey targeted students who:

  • purchased a Keslaly product or subscription
  • logged into the platform at least once during Q4 2025
  • had an active email address on file

Invitation method

Invitations were distributed via:

  • email campaign
  • in-platform notification banner
  • follow-up reminder email sent 7 days later

Survey period

  • Initial invitations sent: October 14, 2025
  • Survey closed: December 2, 2025

Incentive

No monetary incentive was provided.

Invitations, responses, and response rate

  • Total invitations: 3,123
  • Total completed responses: 169
  • Response rate: 5.4%  (169 ÷ 3,123 × 100 ≈ 5.4%)

A 5.4% response rate is typical for voluntary, no-incentive online customer surveys. We disclose it openly so readers can weigh the data accordingly. See Limitations.

1. “95% similar to the actual exam”

95% Similar to the actual exam
Source: User-reported survey n = 148 Q4 2025
Metric definition: Percentage of respondents who reported that Keslaly’s practice materials were similar to their actual exam experience in terms of topic coverage, lesson alignment, question difficulty, exam structure, and general testing experience. The metric does not refer to word-for-word duplication or reproduction of official exam questions.
Question asked:
“Based on your actual exam experience, how similar were Keslaly’s practice materials to the real exam in terms of topic coverage, lesson alignment, question difficulty, and overall testing experience?”
Answer choices:
  • Not Similar
  • Slightly Similar
  • Moderately Similar
  • Very Similar
  • Extremely Similar
How calculated: Respondents selecting “Very Similar” or “Extremely Similar” were grouped together to produce the published percentage.
Important clarification. “Similarity” refers to perceived educational alignment and preparation relevance only. It does not imply identical questions, reproduced exam content, leaked materials, official affiliation with testing organizations, or verbatim similarity to proprietary examinations. Keslaly develops and curates independent educational preparation materials intended to help students practice concepts and exam-style reasoning.

2. “91% pass rate”

91% Self-reported pass rate
Source: Self-reported post-exam survey n = 132 Q4 2025
Metric definition: Percentage of respondents who reported passing their exam after using Keslaly.
Question asked:
“Did you pass the nursing entrance or nursing school exam you prepared for using Keslaly?”
Answer choices:
  • Yes
  • No
  • I have not taken the exam yet
How calculated: Only respondents who indicated they had already taken the exam were included. Respondents selecting “I have not taken the exam yet” were excluded from the denominator.

3. “4.7★ average rating”

4.7★ Average platform satisfaction
Source: Customer satisfaction survey n = 169 Q4 2025
Metric definition: Average platform satisfaction score using a 5-point rating scale.
Question asked:
“Overall, how would you rate your experience with Keslaly?”
Rating scale:
  • 1 Star — Very Poor
  • 2 Stars — Poor
  • 3 Stars — Average
  • 4 Stars — Good
  • 5 Stars — Excellent
How calculated: Arithmetic mean of all submitted ratings.

4. “50% less study time”

50% Less study time vs. previous methods
Source: Self-reported study efficiency survey n = 141 Q4 2025
Metric definition: Percentage of respondents who reported that Keslaly reduced the amount of time they needed to study compared to their previous preparation methods.
Question asked:
“Compared to previous study methods or resources you have used, approximately how much study time did Keslaly help you save?”
Answer choices:
  • No time saved
  • Less than 25%
  • About 25%
  • About 50%
  • More than 50%
How calculated: The published figure reflects respondents selecting “About 50%” or “More than 50%”.

5. “+25% score boost”

+25% Average reported score improvement
Source: Self-reported score comparison survey n = 97 Q4 2025
Metric definition: Average reported score improvement between baseline practice performance and later exam or mock-exam performance.
Question asked:
“Approximately how much did your scores improve after consistently using Keslaly?”
Answer choices:
  • No improvement
  • Less than 10%
  • 10–24%
  • 25–49%
  • 50% or more
How calculated: The published figure reflects the average reported improvement range among qualifying respondents.

6. “Trusted by 7,000+ nursing students”

7,000+ Registered students
Source: Internal database records Cumulative through Q4 2025
Metric definition: Total number of registered student accounts and purchases across Keslaly products.
How calculated: Includes paid users, trial users, and returning customers. Duplicate accounts identified through internal fraud and duplication checks are excluded where reasonably detectable.

7. “99% Pass Prediction Accuracy” (HESI A2)

99% HESI A2 Pass Prediction Accuracy
Source: Self-reported survey + internal mock-exam data n = 42 HESI A2 only
Metric definition: Percentage of surveyed HESI A2 users whose actual HESI A2 exam outcome matched Keslaly’s readiness prediction based on mock exam performance and preparation benchmarks. The metric refers to prediction alignment between platform readiness indicators and reported exam outcomes — it does not represent a guarantee of passing.
Question 1 asked:
“Before taking your HESI A2 exam, did Keslaly’s readiness indicators or mock exam results make you feel prepared to pass?”
Answer choices:
  • Yes
  • No
  • Unsure
Question 2 asked:
“Did you pass the HESI A2 exam after using Keslaly?”
Answer choices:
  • Yes
  • No
  • I have not taken the exam yet
How calculated: Only respondents who (a) completed HESI A2 preparation using Keslaly, (b) took the actual HESI A2 exam, and (c) answered both survey questions were included. The published percentage reflects respondents whose reported exam outcome aligned with Keslaly readiness expectations and predicted preparation level.
Important clarification. This metric is based partially on self-reported survey responses and was not independently verified with Elsevier or official testing records. It reflects alignment between readiness indicators and reported outcomes among survey respondents only. “Prediction accuracy” refers to educational readiness estimation and not guaranteed examination performance. Individual outcomes may vary depending on prior academic preparation, study consistency, testing conditions, and external study resources. Keslaly does not guarantee passing scores or specific examination outcomes.

8. “99% of Keslaly users pass TEAS 7 on first try”

99% TEAS 7 first-try pass rate
Source: Self-reported post-exam survey n = 52 ATI TEAS 7 only
Metric definition: Percentage of surveyed ATI TEAS 7 users who reported passing the ATI TEAS 7 exam on their first attempt after using Keslaly preparation materials.
Question asked:
“After using Keslaly to prepare for the ATI TEAS 7 exam, did you pass the ATI TEAS 7 on your first attempt?”
Answer choices:
  • Yes
  • No
  • I have not taken the ATI TEAS 7 yet
How calculated: Only respondents who indicated they had already taken the ATI TEAS 7 exam were included in the denominator. The published percentage reflects respondents who selected “Yes”. Respondents selecting “I have not taken the ATI TEAS 7 yet” were excluded.
Important clarification. This metric is based on voluntary self-reported survey responses and was not independently verified with ATI Testing or official score records. It reflects reported outcomes only among survey respondents. Individual outcomes may vary depending on prior academic preparation, study consistency, testing conditions, and use of additional study resources. Keslaly does not guarantee passing scores or specific examination outcomes.
Note: This TEAS-specific figure is distinct from the general 91% pass rate (metric #2), which spans all exam types and uses a different question. The two figures are not directly comparable.

Data collection standards

Keslaly uses a mixed-method approach combining:

  • anonymous surveys
  • usage analytics
  • purchase records
  • user-reported outcomes

Survey responses are stored without publicly identifying personal information. Internal analytics may include login frequency, mock-exam completion, study-session activity, and product engagement metrics.

Limitations

The following limitations apply to all published metrics:

  • results are self-reported unless otherwise stated
  • participation was voluntary
  • survey respondents may differ from non-respondents
  • pass outcomes were not independently verified against official testing-board records
  • metrics may not generalize to all users
  • some respondents may have used additional study resources outside Keslaly
  • survey data may be affected by recall bias or response bias

Because of these limitations, published statistics should be interpreted as indicative customer-reported outcomes rather than guaranteed results. Individual results may vary.

Refresh cadence

Keslaly updates public-facing statistics quarterly.

  • Current reporting cycle: Q4 2025
  • Next scheduled update: Q2 2026

Historical metrics may change over time as additional responses are collected and methodology improves.
