Faculty Credentials
Doctoral-Level Degrees
PhD and EdD credentials in health sciences education. Not anonymous freelance writers — the people who built this course have spent careers teaching the subjects they write about.
Classroom and clinical teaching experience
Faculty have taught pre-nursing, nursing, and allied health students at accredited community colleges and universities. This is not a startup with hired test-prep writers — it is a platform built by practicing health sciences educators.
EdExpert LLC
StudyBuddy is operated by EdExpert LLC, an independent health sciences education company. Not a subsidiary of any exam publisher or large test-prep company. Independence allows the platform to serve niche exams like the HSRT that large companies have ignored.
Source-verified content
Every study guide, practice question, and video lecture is grounded in primary sources: ATI TEAS 7 test blueprints, NCSBN NCLEX test plans, Insight Assessment HSRT documentation, and Elsevier HESI A2 specifications.
Why does it matter who builds exam prep?
The test-prep industry has a quality problem. Many platforms hire freelance writers with no subject-matter expertise to produce practice questions at scale. The result is questions with incorrect rationales, outdated clinical information, or misaligned difficulty levels.
StudyBuddy’s HSRT content, in particular, required deep expertise that does not exist elsewhere — the Health Sciences Reasoning Test, developed by Insight Assessment, tests critical thinking reasoning in ways that generic content writers cannot accurately replicate. The same applies to the clinical judgment questions in the NCLEX-RN course.
“Every question in StudyBuddy was written by faculty who have stood in front of pre-nursing classrooms and watched students struggle with the exact concepts we teach.”
