If you are a school considering buying Membean, Don't buy it
Membean has to be one of the worst, if not the worst, vocabulary learning program that exists. First, every question has a timer so someone who just happens to have a lower memory recall speed would get many questions wrong while still actually knowing the word, this entirely defeats to point of Membean's "adaptability". Second, I have encountered, many times, the issue of having a fill in the blank question where there are multiple words that would fit in but only one would work. This situation is stupid and easily preventable but the greedy, lazy owners of Membean cannot seem to fix it. Third, sometimes you will get questions that have a map of synonyms of a word, and you will have to guess the word based off of the synonyms. However, sometimes there will be antonyms and there is no marker to tell which ones are synonyms or antonyms so you won't be able to tell the definition of the word because Membean will send you in two opposite directions. Fourth, it can be very aggravating when you get a word wrong and it makes you sit, extra-long, waiting for the follow up question to load. This seems to only be the case for such follow up questions after you get a wrong answer. Fifth, even though they boast about being adaptable to learning pace, almost every session of Membean that I have done has been flagged saying "review pace too quick" and Membean still has not adapted to my learning pace. Also, Membean is just plain boring due to its bland user interface and its boring way of "teaching" where it just gives constant multiple-choice questions with a few questions where you might have to type the first three letters of a word. I get that learning does not have to be fun, but Membean is just so bland that it feels like trying to swim in mud just by going through a 15-minute session. Lastly, the weekly requirement is structured so that you have to do three, 15-minute session all on different days. This requirement makes it easy to forget to do causing many people to lose points towards their English class grade. Also this time requirement makes it difficult for people who have incredibly busy schedules most days and therefore only have time to do it one or two days of the week.
