One group, every exam on the way

  3. After graduationPANCETake full-length mocks together, keep the streak going, and walk into the PANCE with your class behind you.

What your class gets

Everyone studies with the full Smarty PANCE library, and your group page turns the class's practice into a plan.

Full Smarty PANCE for everyone

Each classmate gets their own one-year membership: lessons for all 7 EOR exams, the EOC and the PANCE plus the QBank with over 5,200 board-style questions, mock exams, flashcards and podcasts.

A daily Fast 5 and streaks

Five questions and five flashcards a day, built from your rotation or your group's weekly focus. Finish them to keep your streak alive.

Compete with other schools

Challenge PA classes at other schools to a one- or two-week race, and climb the monthly Group Cup for a chance to win free Smarty PANCE swag.

Rotation buddies

Mark your rotation to find classmates on the same service, with links to that rotation's EOR topic list.

Mock exam days

Pick a date and take the same full-length EOR, EOC or PANCE mock together, then see how the class did as a group. Nobody's score is shown.

Your AI, plus a shared shelf

Add Smarty PANCE to ChatGPT or Claude for quizzes built from real QBank questions. Share Gemini Notebook audio and study guides on the class shelf, and faculty can post too.

Group vs group

Take on other schools

Compete against PA classes at other schools for a chance to win free Smarty PANCE swag. Organizers trade group codes and pick one or two weeks, and the group with more questions per member wins, so a small group can take down a big class.

Rotations

Know who's on what

Mark your clinical rotation and its end date. Classmates on the same service show up as rotation buddies, and every one of the 7 rotations links to its EOR topic list and a Rotation Fast 5 for that rotation's organ systems.

Mock exam days

Take the same mock, together

Your organizer picks a date and a full-length mock: an EOR, the EOC or the Virtual PANCE. Classmates tap "I'm in," everyone takes it in the QBank, and the group page shows how the class did, as a spread with no names attached.

Resource shelf

One shelf for the good stuff

Share Gemini Notebook audio overviews, one-page study guides, mnemonics and videos. Organizers pin the best ones, and faculty can post from the Program Portal, tagged Faculty. Groups can also get their own private space in the Smarty PANCE community.

Leaderboard

Rank effort, never scores

The weekly leaderboard counts questions answered and streaks, never accuracy, and only for classmates who opt in. Classmates can also challenge each other head to head.

Better together

Every rotation, one class.

Different services, different schedules, one group page: a daily Fast 5, streaks to protect, mock exam days together and a class to race against. Everyone's scores stay private.

Group pricing

Any member can start a study group page for free. Want discounted memberships for your class? Groups of 10 or more save 15% to 35%, and the bigger the group, the bigger the discount.

15% off10–29 students$67.15 per student, All-Access (regularly $79)$84.15 per student, All-Access + ReelDx (regularly $99)
25% off30–49 students$59.25 per student, All-Access (regularly $79)$74.25 per student, All-Access + ReelDx (regularly $99)
35% off50+ students$51.35 per student, All-Access (regularly $79)$64.35 per student, All-Access + ReelDx (regularly $99)

The group picks one membership type. Group packages aren't refundable, and group rates don't combine with other sales. ReelDx videos are for individual use only.

Everyone's scores stay private

Nobody in your group sees anyone else's scores. Class numbers appear only once at least 5 classmates are practicing, and the organizer sees only who has activated, never how anyone is doing.

Questions students ask

Will my classmates see my scores?

No. Scores are private. The group page only shows class-wide numbers, and only once at least 5 classmates are practicing.

Do all my classmates need Smarty PANCE?

No. Any member can start a group, and classmates without Smarty PANCE join free as guests with the daily Fast 5, flashcards, streaks and the group board. Members also get challenges, mock exam days, weak spots, the AI study tools and the full QBank.

What if fewer than 10 of us want to buy?

Group rates start at 10 students. Smaller groups can still start a free group page and buy individual memberships.

I already have a membership.

You can use your group's code to extend your access and still join the group page.

We're all on different rotations. Does it still work?

Yes, that's what it's built for. Each classmate marks their rotation and gets a Rotation Fast 5 and EOR topic list for it, while the class shares streaks, challenges and mock days.

Is this only for the PANCE?

No. Groups can study for an EOR rotation, the EOC or the PANCE, and the organizer can switch as the class moves from clinical year to graduation.

How do group vs group challenges work?

Organizers swap a group code and pick one or two weeks. The group with more QBank questions per member wins. Only group totals are shared, never anyone's scores or names.

Do I have to do the Fast 5 every day?

No. It takes about five minutes and keeps your streak going, but it's optional. Skip a day and your streak simply starts over.

Can our faculty see our scores on the group page?

No. Faculty can share study guides and audio on your group's shelf, but the group page never shows them anyone's scores. If your program adds the Program Portal, faculty get their own class dashboard.

Can we switch to a program purchase later?

Yes. If your program buys the Program Portal, your group moves into it and faculty can see the class's progress.
