What Pharmacy Technician Students Say About Picmonic

Students use Picmonic from the start of their first year all the way to their residency years. It’s a great investment throughout pharmacy school.

Sydney

Picmonic has definitely upgraded my study sessions. After reading my book and going over notes Picmonic helps to bring it all together in ways I never thought!

Lauren M headshot

I love Picmonic. I have always been a visual learner and these cartoons help me so much. I easily bring the image to mind when being tested on material.

Jonathan P

Picmonic is a lifesaver.

Robbin M headshot

I was skeptical of paying for a study site but, after the first week of using Picmonic, I was telling everyone about how much I have learned and remembered!

Brianna K headshot

Picmonic has made learning so much fun! I have improved so much in college because of this program.

Ragen H headshot

Picmonic took down the stress level of learning new topics and re-learning information that I had already been familiar with. I felt much less overwhelmed with all of the material I was expected to know as an NP student.

I have the ability to use Picmonic whenever I have time and I can recall much more when it is test time. The price was steep for me, but since I took the plunge, I really do not regret it.

Joi D headshot

I am a very visual learner and I can’t tell you how many times this helped me while taking a test. The review questions at the end of each little video helped seal the information. Also, none of the videos are so long that you get lost.

If you remember things better by association then watching these videos will help! Thank you Picmonic for helping me get through!
