It does not matter how old you are or which college you attended. I can guarantee that you will get wrong answers. My daughters are required to do Study Island per my school district request. It's just frustrating and brings their confidence down. I do not recommend in any shape or form. Kind of surprised to see some people like it.

If it wasn't for my stupid lessons I have to do for my school, I would delete my account. Not only does it stress me and my other classmates out, it also says that the right answers are wrong. If your not convinced here's proof. (I got the first question right)

It's very excellent in breaking the souls of your students. If your students is being a pest then give them a lashing of torture island. 10/10 for torture. But seriously this is an punishment not a treat. Study island sucks.

Are you Guessing?
December 16, 2019

Are you Guessing, that's what it tells you. When you start study island and let's say it out of 5 questions and you get the 1st one wrong and just want to put random answers to try again, it doesnt let you and asks Are you Guessing, You are forced to Wait 10 Seconds before answering now and it is the worst. Would not recommend. DO NOT USE. Gives stress to kids.

Similar to any other student's experiences, I have gone through so much stress having to do 30 of these horrible problems a week. All of my classmates and everyone else in my school absolutely despises this program. Everybody constantly gets 40% or lower on the website while getting A's or B's on actual homework and quizzes. Something that really bugs me is how my teacher gives us 8 question quizzes based solely of the trash website. I honestly don't understand why this website exists. It's a nightmare.

Hard
October 31, 2018

Study island is a hard learning app for some children. I tend to get stressed by just using Study island. I am a student that uses this app most of the day, due to some teachers. I honestly dislike how complex some lessons are. Some children may not be used to reading one threw maybe 8 pages, and it could hurt a child's eyes for reading so much in one day. So if you would like to teach a student something. Try teaching them in more fun ways. Other then staring at a screen for an hour and reading.

From,
The person who made this.

Stress
September 18, 2018

I am a student that uses study island in my school. I can sum it up in three words. Stress Anxiety Depression.Its so confusing and just stresses me out.My teachers like to assign study islands as homework which I think is bull. They like to grade it out of 100% so when you get a blue ribbon(70%)it drops your grade rapidly which in my opinion isn't right.If you are considering using study island DON'T.Its complete crap and does not help you learn.

It makes me want to die.
January 27, 2019

This website makes me want to kill myself. I will answer with the best possible choice, and then it will say that it is wrong, only to an answer that is 100% incorrect. The Study Island tasks only bring my grade down, and do not help me learn anything. They stress me out, and I end up spending way too much time on them, only to get a bad grade. There is no reason why we should be forced to do these, and they are doing absolutely nothing to benefit me.

I am a student that's in middle school, we had to complete 48 of these questions to get a little day of cooking out! I know about half of these kids here that only completed 3 lessons! These are not at all a sixth grade level. None of these kids that are trying so hard to go, will be able to attend the day off. I am stuck on this one lesson that I have done 5 times now, and still can't pass! Guess I won't be going either.

Causes so much stress
March 29, 2018

Study island used to be a fun learning site. You could watch fun videos and play games. Now all of that is gone. I remember I used to love this site. Now every time I see one of its questions I want to cry. One of its stupid assignments took me 2 hours to complete. And I still only got a seventy. I also hate it when it gives you multiple choice questions. You have to get everything right or the whole thing is wrong. Game mode is almost completely broken. So please don't use it. It made me and my brother cry everytime we had to do it. It's awful. It's doesn't help at all on tests.

Why is this a thing
November 14, 2019

TO THE PEOPLE WHO MADE STUDY ISLAND. Its torture for me and my friends. Why is this thing so boring. Make it fun a little. I'm so sick and tired of " pick all the correct answers" and when I get one part wrong " you got the whole problem wrong". It is 10:50 pm I started at 9:30 AM AND IM STILL TRYING TO GET A GOOD GRADE. If I was a teacher I would never give mt students this torture. Moral of the story is... BLOCK STUDY ISLAND DONT GIVE IT TO YOU STUDENTS.

Study Island Stress
March 10, 2018

I am a student and in my school, we use Study Island as a learning program. In 4th grade, we were doing a science study island and it said that the sun goes around the moon. We then did multiple tests of science study islands and found that they had many science facts wrong, so now my school has now stopped using science study islands. We still do other classes and other things have been wrong and proved by our teachers. I would give this a 0 star rating but, it's not possible here.

Study Island is a terrible website run by a company of blithering idiots who don't understand half of the things they make 'lessons' about. Many of the so-called 'answers' the website gives you as options for solving equations are just blatantly incorrect. The explanations it gives you as to why you chose the wrong answer are confusing, convoluted, and feel as though they have been written in a foreign language. The scoring system is also completely unreasonable, as it gets more and more difficult to pass a subject the more times you fail at it.

Honestly, if you want a tool for studying math, don't waste your time and money by subscribing to study island. Instead, purchase a membership with IXL. It is a much better service with none of the issues I mentioned with Study Island to hold it back.

This is just wrong
April 4, 2019

Every time I do Study island it frustrates me because half of the answers are not even correct. I did linear equations and some of the answers were completely off. Study Island just needs to get shut down, there is nothing good that comes from it!

Sucks $#*!
January 15, 2018

I freaking hate study Island. It never works. The answers are impossible, the questions are confusing, and this is all for money. My lazy $#*! teachers give this out when they dont have any assignments to give out, so Im stuck failing every question given, racing to keep my grade up. It keeps screwing up my grade, because I HAVE to get an 80% or higher, which makes it a million times harder since the questions are too hard. $#*! you edumentum, your website only increases my depression by making me stressed and dumbfounded. I cant continue to suffer from my teachers making me go through this Hell that is a website. I hope this website is deleted off the face of the Earth, so kids like me can go on and live our lives. And if you dont take this $#*!ty website down, I will convince my parents to sue your gay $#*! company. I hope everyone who works at that torture chamber for children loses their job and lives in poverty when I bomb that $#*!ing business. Thank you.

Incredibly tedious
September 4, 2019

I've used study island for two years, school-wise. I'm literally forced to use this program, and its horrible. I've done so many lessons, and questions that I don't even learn. It's just memorization, and doesn't give any educational benefits. I try very hard to gradually learn the lesson that I'm doing, and it gives redundant long explanations that make barely any sense. Even when I use its resources, it does not help.
There are many bugs that exist in the program as well, such as answers being 'wrong' even though they're clearly right, loading times, structural glitches and so much more. I don't know if this program is meant to help students with learning, or implement mental stress.

This stupid program never works. I put in the correct answer and it said i was wrong. Whoever created clearly has to fix this. The lessons do not even help. At least make the lessons better or more in depth because it IS USELESS.
