Not very happy at the moment..
Not very happy at the moment... passed my first exam on the first try before I even heard of black spectacles, signed up for my second one, and failed that exam 3 times. I like the videos, but it’s not working for me. Tons of money and back to where I was before signing up, minus some money.

Thank you for your honest review. We set a high standard for ourselves, and we’re so sorry to hear our service did not provide the success you had hoped for. We are continually working to improve and hope you'll give us another chance in the future. -Jessica, Black Spectacles Team

If you are somebody who finds comfort…
If you are somebody who finds comfort in getting a sense of the look and feel of the exam beforehand, then it may be worth getting a subscription just to use the exams, but do not use Black Spectacles to study. BS is 5% content, 95% BS. Get Amber Book. You'll thank me later.

I emailed the company about many…
I emailed the company about many incorrect questions I was seeing on the practice test. These questions only lead to confusion and distrust. I also did not find the videos to be in depth enough. I passed my first three test quickly using other resources. My company subscribed to Black Spectacles so I tried it for my last two. I was much less successful using Black Spectacles.

Hi Tina, We appreciate the time you've taken to let us know how we can improve, and are so sorry we let you down. Producing world class content is a tenant of Black Spectacles and we are disappointed we've fallen short in this instance. What I can assure you of, is that we are working around the clock to triple check our work pertaining to practice exams and continually are improving our videos and correlating objectives to make your studying experience more holistic. We are right there with you to help facilitate some passes in your future, and we wish you the best of luck in your retakes - licensure is on the horizon. Best, The Black Spectacles Team
