Worst website to exist.
September 9, 2022

IReady is just as bad as Fortnite, it's basically throwing a child in a cauldron and telling them to stay there and only eat rotten bananas for 6 years. IReady is torture to everyone. I've tried so many things to get it banned but the school blocks everything but luckily I switched schools so I don't have to do it anymore :) iReady makes kids suffer I hope you get sued for *******$.

BAN THIS NOW
August 15, 2022

I hate I ready and if you look on YouTube there are lots of kids that hate I ready like me! I have to overdo this crap. I have to do 3 lessons per week for both subjects and if I don't I get a zero and my grades go down and my teacher calls my parents and I get yelled at and my phone gets taken away all because of this website. Also the lessons are slow. They make it slow on purpose by telling these useless terrible jokes and stories. So they make it slow on purpose. I've been doing it for all the grades I've been to exept 4th grade bc of covid and I'm sick and tired of it so ban this now!

Quitting iready cured my depression
July 5, 2022

I'm Farlander Y. Just wanted to say that quitting iready cured my depression. One of the many reasons i quit school entirely and went to a school that opens the day with playing Minecraft for 1 1/2 hours. Paradise

DIE
June 2, 2022

1. The reading section is so boring 2. The characters voices where done in the middle of heatwave in a daycare 3. The vocab lessons are super annoying, at the first part it says: " if you don't know what a word means, look inside the word, look around the word, or look beyond the word" while the annoying animation played

I-Ready= B A D
May 23, 2022

I Ready is so Bad Because the reading that the website Gives you takes, in my opinion To long Like Basically, If the website is saying 4+4=8 it will say it like F O U R pause Plus pause Four- see what I mean! So if you are a teacher and you are Thinking about giving Your students I-Ready HW, Please, Don't. I am an 11 Year old 5th Grader and the 75 Minutes, yes 75 minutes of I-Ready that our Math teacher asigns us Is to Much for Me. So what I am saying, is that I-Ready is a VERY f**ked up Website.

The worst platform ever
May 17, 2022

I am a 4th grader and I am here to tell you why Iready is the worst platform ever invented 1st want to tell you about the diagnostic so I have done the diagnostic 9 times and unless your doing the first diagnostic of the year and even then youll still have to do half the lesson you did last year youll also hav e the same questions as you already did over and over theres also cutscenes and "brain breaks" which are just a waste of time speaking of wastes of timeit could take hours to do your diagnostic but it will not count as ireadyminutes I'd rather climb mount everest than do the diagnostic again my respect goes out to every kid who has to do a lesson every day the screen goes to "are you still there" it makes uswant to kill ourselves I wouldve given this 0 stars if i could but of course i couldnt and sitejabber should change that. I-ready is so bad there are multiple petitions to get rid of it please sign one of those petitions to help get rid of iready.

I thought child torture was illegal
May 16, 2022

Hi, my name is Devon. I'm in ninth grade, and like you, I had to take the diagnostic. The results of the diagnostic decide what lessons you get. The diagnostic shows what you know and what you need to work on. I remember the last diagnostic I took. It was hard. The diagnostic will feel challenging. You may see questions you may not know the answer to because you haven't learned them. There were some questions I new, and some questions I didn't know. But I didn't give up. I tried my best and moved on. When I finished, I got lessons that were right for me. The diagnostic is not a typical test. Not all students will see the same questions. Every student should expect to get around half the questions correct. That's okay. Some of my friends rushed, and got lessons that weren't right for them. They asked me what I did. Here are 5 things I shared with them: One: I didn't give up. Two: Some of the questions may seem tricky, but I made sure to read the whole question. Three: Some of the questions I didn't know the answer to. After thinking hard and working the problem out on a piece of paper, I took my best guess. Four: before I hit the "done" button, I checked my answer and made sure it was right. I changed a few of my answers that way. Five: I took my time. Once, I finished really fast, but then I got put in lessons that weren't right for me. Warning: some students rush through and guess without reading the choices. If you do this, you may get lessons that are too easy for you and will be a waste of your time. You may even have to take it again. You might want to give up or rush. Don't! Try your best, and you'll get the right lessons for you.

Why i hate this website
May 5, 2022

I try to do it while they are talking and i have to wait like 30 seconds to answer the questions and boy do i hate waiting. Worst ever website in the world wide web. All of the reviews are 1 stars! And completly agree as a 3rd grader I-ready is boring and terrible because you have to wait to answer the questions! Very bad and i agree with all the 1 star reviews. Also enjoy this pic of mike wasoski.

I-ready sucks
April 27, 2022

I-ready causes depression, anxiety, and more in children and they should not be experiencing that I know I-ready is supposed to be fun for kids but its more like torture for them.

Please delete i-ready
April 21, 2022

It does not help students in any way because it makes you learn it over and over again and it just makes students want to kill themselves. Making students suffer through 45 minutes of i-ready a week is just abuse and should be outlawed.

Iready i the absolute worst ive had to go through pretty much 5 years of school for the up and it is terrible. If you get 3 maybe 4 questions wrong you have to go through the instruction, Practice, And quiz again. And it dosent teach you anything it gives you the same lessens just with different math, i have no idea why teachers made students do this piece of crap. I feel really bad for future students who have to go through this pain. Please ban iready theres no point of it excisting if people hate it a lot. Just delete it And save children suffering today.

I-READY SUCKS!
February 1, 2022

Ok guys, NEVER MAKE YOUR KIDS DO THIS! I have a do it right now and it's probably that worst learning website I have ever been on. I am in 5th grade and it's so weird how they know your full name, even your middle name! I-ready makes kids want to kill themselves and and makes everyone throw there computer in rage. If you get one little question wrong it takes them a minute explain what 10+10 is. I WOULD NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER RECOMMEND I-READY!

I hate iReady
January 11, 2022

Iready is annoying. The voices of the characters drive me nuts and the intro video of the diagnostic is too long and cringey. It makes me hate school. I hope all schools stop using it because it makes me feel dumb and depressed. I don't hate math and I'm good at reading, but I never do good on the test.
