NP students love Sketchy

“Sketchy helped me go from feeling overwhelmed to confident. I actually *remembered* what I studied!”

Taylor, NP Student

"I passed the AANP certification exam. The Sketchy lessons were invaluable during school for exams but more importantly, during my student clinical rotations. I totally reimagined several pharm lessons during my certification exam."

Andrea, Case Western Reserve University

“Best tool I’ve used—way better than traditional notes or watching lectures.”

Alex, Family NP student

Frequently Asked Questions

I've never heard of Sketchy before. Does it really work?

Yep. We’ve helped over 500,000 healthcare students (and counting). We’re used in every U.S. med school, and now NP students are using the same method that made SketchyMicro and SketchyPharm so iconic.

Who makes Sketchy’s content?

Real clinicians who get it. Our team designs every lesson to be short, high-yield, and clinically relevant so you actually remember it when it matters.

What makes Sketchy different from other visual learning platforms?

Sketchy NP isn't a traditional question bank or flashcards. It uses story-based mnemonics and a visual universe of unforgettable characters, stories, and interconnected scenes to help you remember complex topics long term. Most platforms focus on isolated facts—Sketchy builds real understanding through visual learning that sticks.

Who is Sketchy NP for?

Every nurse practitioner student at any stage and specialty. It’s especially useful if you’re struggling to retain complex material like pharmacology or pathophysiology, feeling overwhelmed by dense lectures and textbooks, or you just want to study more efficiently.
