I like how Pearson is so easy to do and finish! It is a great program that i have used for years! It is an amazing program. I am so grateful for Savvas realize!
I can not even get over how bad this curriculum is. I would need way more room to go into full detail. Every aspect of this curriculum is awful. The homeschool bundle comes with ZERO answers to any of the problems or tests. The website is not user friendly at all. I never was able to figure it out despite spending hours of time devoted to it. I feel so bad for teachers or students who are forced to use this. I ended up sucking up the money and ordered a real math curriculum from bju press
This is the most annoying program. If you forget to put a symbol or something it's wrong. How it teaches you is lazy and boring. I've never learned anything worth two nickels from this site.
Those of you who love this site have amazing teachers but ive had fractions for 3 or 4 whole lessons and overwhelming questions forever and crappy videos that barely help y is this site invented
Savvas Realize's food was Terrible. Their Delivery was not on Time! They make food really badly because they dont have good workers.
Mathwise, Trash. Sometimes Question right, but they say its wrong. Also, if you are looking to do it, please do not. I do not like it at all. I keep getting questions right, but they say I get it wrong. Wut the Hell is wrong with Savvas Realize? People, will never like it, unless they have no brain cells. They need some I guess... Then people who like savvas also dont know how life works, and they need some replacements in their brain. People who are Trash think its good but it isnt. Savvas us bad.
Tip for consumers:
Savvas is bad for you!

Ur app is absolute trash, please remove this horrid excuse for a learning application from the website in order to save my sanity from leaving my mortal being
Traumatizing for children. One of my students was crying in my zoom class over Savvas. Savvas Realize needs to realize how to be a good website because it has one too many children crying. Thinking about using Savvas Realize for your students? Don't. I could've shown my students a video of 9/11 and I wouldn't have as many traumatized children.
I accidently pressed 1 star, im a student and savvas made me very smort, i love savvas and if you wanna be smort then join the savvas cult >: 3 Im lying i meant to press 1 this place sucks and yesh indeed i am a student and my teacher called the creators and got kicked out of teacher access with all the other teachers, atleats we got out of a test but- never mind but anyway, this will not make you smort so dont try bye bye: 3
The practice and problem solving is always at least 30 questions. I'm pretty sure the site was made in 2005 because it never loads and is down what feels like every other day. Just do not buy it.
The corrections for written answers is crap and is just a really cheap way of saying to your school, "hey i care about your education just enough to give you hell inside a website because its "the best we can do."
PLEASE GET SCHOOLS TO STOP USING THIS CRAP WEBSITE>
I am a 7th grader, and my school started using Savvas, as opposed to I-ready. At first we were fine, then the site would not work for HALF OF THE SCHOOL FOR 3 WEEKS!
The whole time, we were told to clear all of our data from the computer. (As if that would help.) This ding-dang program caused us so much trouble, all while our grades were dropping from, "Not doing our work." The teachers even said they were talking to Savvas about it, but it still was another week before it worked.
Basically, don't use Savvas.
This is so hard and a dumb math company! They don't even say "Nice Try!" when you get a question wrong this is the worst website. DELETE IT NOW! Its not school appropriate. The website sucks GOODBYE SAVVAS REALIZE!

It could be worse, but its bad enough. It takes TEN YEARS to load, and then after that it might glitch and kick you. It says it works with google classroom, but a lot of times it'll say "In order to blah blah blah you need to link accounts with google classroom" even when I'm already linked. It's incredibly glitchy- I once had two of the top bars and I couldn't get rid of it. When it does work, it's basically just as bad. A lot of the questions you're asked barely get explained in the text, and the sections are basically pointless because you can access most of them from one. I used to hate TCI with a passion, but tbh its waaaaay better than this.
My students were overwhelmed with how much work it is and parents were emailing me saying many children weren't getting good sleep because they are stressed/working on assignments
PEARSON IS KID TORTURE ZONE please i do not recommend teachers to use this HECK'N CARELESS POINTLESS EVIL website. I am not complaining about this $#*!ing website, but they have too much STUPID PROBLEMS. I'm SICK OF THEM. They used to have us print out PDFs, many questions make no sense, and my daughter's current problem is Pearson Realize said she was wrong, gave an example of the correct answer. It turns out the correct answer was EXACTLY the same thing my daughter typed, CRAZY. Teachers, please note to yourself that even though this horrible website connects to google classroom and has these fancy smmansy topics, lessons and more, please rip up the books, put the pages in a shredder, or throw the books in a grinder. Then use another company, not a horrendous one.
I got one question wrong and this is a disgrace to humanity. I put my whole life into this one question and it ruined it. I swear if I don't get into college its your fault (Savvas). Let me just get started by your name Savvas like who would name there child Savvas. You a DIZGRACE to learning and this harassment shouldn't ever be on anyone. One day when I am rich and famous Ima sue yo butta for again that one question.

Like Savvas is dreadful for the students and teacher and they must be canceled IMMEDIATELY. The platform is mad boring and also not user friendly because of it's super dull layout. I mean if we have to keep on using it at least make more fun activities, make it look more festive instead of decorating it to have the aesthetic of an Insane Asylum!
Buggy, Will sign people out randomly, and giving a review requires one hundred letters to submit. Would not recommend.

Don't use this trash. There are no explanations. It just gives you the work and lets you fail by giving very vague questions.

I EVEN LOST MY FISH BRO, IT DROWNED IN ITS CAGE, I'M GOING CRAZY BRO MY MOUSE IS CHASING MY CAT PLEASE STOP THIS CRAZY WEBSITE!
Oh, no, no, no, NO! This is awful and is not good. The videos are cheezy and not very educational. This is not good at all. No, no, no, never get this, it is the worst, WORST educational website out there, burn it (NOT ACTUALLY)
I use this for English and Biology. The resources they provide to learn and study from there are fine for me to use, but thats the best it can do. Their E-Texts don't sometimes load properly or takes forever to load. Their quizzes are made so badly and annoying sometimes. Some quizzes even offer multiple choice options, when the answer is sometimes like "either two of these are write, they sound the same but only one of them is truly right, have fun getting it right lol." The quizzes also cover some other topics that isn't mentioned too much either from the past or the present topics you are taking. Their quiz grading isn't fair either. They tell you when you get "partial credit," yet doesn't count points from that problem at all! AND, the questions you get wrong don't even tell you HOW or WHY you got wrong! All in all, I like the sources they provide for you to study independently from (especially cause of the quarantine), but the quizzes they provide aren't structured that well to the point I get ridiculous grades on quizzes from home than quizzes from school. I don't know if its because of my teacher(s) that allowed these questions to show up, but Im already too frustrated to think clearly cause of all of this. I don't recommend using this platform to do tests AT ALL!
Every single time I write the correct answer, it tells me that it's wrong. And also, it makes me furious and it just makes my day worse. Please, never use this website AT ALL.
I was doing some math questions that were assigned to me. When I wrote the CORRECT answer, they said it was wrong. After trying a few times, the system gave me the answer, JUST WRITTEN IN A DIFFERENT WAY. Then, I use their way of writing in another question and THEY SAID THAT IT WAS WRONG! It was very disappointing. Trust me, DO NOT use this website. It is not pretty bad, but the WORST WEBSITE IN THE WORLD! Please, stay away from this monster. -From an annoyed student
I cannot believe Savvas Realize site is "award winning! " First of all, the site is so piece meal. You have to go through so many clicks and open everything separately and you cannot hit the x to get out of things like all other sites. You have to click the back button and go back through each page until you get to what you want. To open the teacher or student edition, you have to open a different page. Each time you hit any button or open anything, it shows you those circling dots! I have lost so much time from my life trying to navigate this site. I, as a teacher, could be using that precious time doing something else. In addition, there are so many things that are computer only! For example, the quick checks are only online! They do not even provide you with a book with them. The only convenience is that it corrects things on line, however, kids need to do those on paper so we can go over it. Otherwise they do it and then never go back to it and cannot see their mistakes. And the way question are stated in the book and especially on the tests is so difficult and confusing. It sets kids up for failure! Are we testing kids on the concept we just taught them, or on reading and trying to figure out what is being asked. Our teachers were given the choice to go back to the old book or do this newest version of Savvas Mathematics (Envision) and most grade levels are currently using the old math series. Definitely go with another publisher if you can. You will have much more planning time for other things.
