I hate iReady
January 11, 2022

Iready is annoying. The voices of the characters drive me nuts and the intro video of the diagnostic is too long and cringey. It makes me hate school. I hope all schools stop using it because it makes me feel dumb and depressed. I don't hate math and I'm good at reading, but I never do good on the test.

Ban I-ready
January 1, 2022

You might be saying Iready is so good and helps us learn but that is completely false. The reason why you should ban i ready because it doesn't help you learn. It provides so much stress! When you are doing close reading and you answer the question correctly, it will say its wrong and completely change the question. For math it doesn't explain it enough to you when you get it wrong. Ether ban it or fix it.

Last post got 10k views by other students like me sick of being tortured. Thanks guys!

So on to the review. I am lucky enough to be in a different program now, where you play Minecraft and Among Us instead of being tortured daily.
I ready sucks. Ready should have never gone to the computer. Turned a respectable company into some crap just like EA but worse. Your school is better off using the money on nothing than iready. Iready is worse than boring. Its only use is- oh wait.

Iready sucks butt
November 11, 2021

I-ready is something that kids are not all about. When I don't finish an I-ready lesson teachers get mad. Its not my fault that I-ready takes forever. This is not helping others focus this is so annoying to me an others. When teachers say that they are working on I-ready for their work the kids say "no this is so boring" The kids really hate I-ready and I do to, I cant with I-ready anymore this makes students feel dumb if they don't get and iready lesson right. This whole iready thing is so stupid and I don't like this website again makes students feel stupid and wont help them get stuff because of how confusing that this whole thing is. I hate this website so much and its really not helping all the others and all this is doing is that its making kids forget what they learned about, this is really confusing to others and me, all these problems when there trying to help is not close to being helpful to others. THEY NEED TO MAKE A DIFFRENT WEBSITE AND TAKE IREADY DOWN.

Iready is not a good curriculum. It goes over the same concepts over and over even after they are mastered. You cannot see your child's progress or upcoming lessons. You have to refer to your teacher for everything. My child is very bored with this curriculum and even prefers IXL over it. The customer service representative was also very unhelpful when I called to inquire about my daughter's progress.

I ready sucks because the characters are cringe and they want to make me go deaf. I also hate how the lessons take you like 30 minutes and when you get 3 or more questions wrong you have to do the whole thing again. Ready also gives kids suicidal thoughts and makes them overwhelmed and stressed for no reason. I ready should be FU#$*ING BANNED. IT SUCKS COMPLAIN TO THE TEACHER PRINCIPAL OR SUPERINTENDENT.

Ban I-Ready
October 4, 2021

I have used I-Ready for about 3 years. Not as long as some of you guys. But I HATE it. It takes me 2 hours to complete and when I fail It takes me 4 hours. It is a waste of time and makes kids want to kill themselves. The government could use the people's voices to torture people. If they did it to me I would last about 5 minutes max. I-Ready has caused the death of so many innocent youth. They where fine before starting. After they wanted to kill themselves. I do NOT recommend this to anyone!

Very bad
September 28, 2021

As a 5th grader, I'm stuck with this thing like I ready, I don't understand why I ready is required. All it does is when you get 1 or two answers wrong, YOU HAVE TO TAKE THE LESSON AGAIN. It's so annoying! Plus *tracking minutes* WHY DO TEACHERS NEED TO TRACK OUR MINUTES ON A PROGRAM THAT DOESNT EVEN TEACH US? Just ban I ready already. The characters sound creepy and act like 2 yr olds.

Bore-fest from Hell
September 23, 2021

I'd like to say that iReady is helpful, but that's only because I have a high score. As a student, I think if schools wanted to kids to be happy, mentally fine, and smart, they would get rid of this bore-fest. They've got god-awful jokes, unfair questions, and characters that look 40 but act 3. So, reader, if you want people to hate going to school, if you want people to lose their sanity, if you want us to go onto sitejabber.com and review something we hate with a burning passion, then this is the site for you.
Much (hate) love,
Cali

AWSOME!
August 10, 2021

Iready is so fun i learn alot but even thought sometimes I get it wrong I learn from them, and it gets funner and funner and people who say the opposite, should think again and learn to appreciate what the teachers do for them.

First of all, let's talk about the lessons. Each lesson is drawn out with a ridiculous amount of questions added to a problem as you answer the questions. After you complete the problem your progress barely even goes up at all, making each lesson over an hour long in some cases. Plus, if you fail a quiz at the end of the lesson you have to restart the whole lesson. The only good thing about this horrendous bore-fest of hell is there is a decent soundtrack sometimes.

Y IREADY IS BAD
July 9, 2021

I Ready is bad because their sentences don't make any stink'in sense at all. And it is like I Ready wants you to get an F. Anytime u you put in an answer it says it is wrong, then when u trying again a hundred times the one that u picked the first that they said was wrong, was actually correct and now u get an F on I Ready and u have to redo it. Why did they have to change I Ready? Why didn't they stay with Plory and Yoop?

IReady, why, I know why, but how. How is it still up, and still a requirement IN MY STATE? I am forced to do dumb stupid useless iReady that does no benefits at all, it's kinda like "Do it my way or no way" and it just doesn't work, for you psychos that like iReady it's impossible to see why. I don't understand... Also, the lessons go soooo slow, like a youtube video trying to reach 10 minutes, it always takes long pauses and makes you wait to answer, it's not fair to students.

The only actual good reward game is cat stacker. And heres an example about how they want to "civilize" you. They say that you have to answer 1 + 2 as 1 + 2, no equivelents like 2 + 1. ITS THE SAME FREAKING EQUATION YOU PIECE OF (insert swear word im not allowed to cuss.)
