Textbook

According to Miami University, undergrad students "should estimate at least $1,240 ($620 per semester) for books, course materials, supplies, and equipment."*

Assuming the student is enrolled in ~5 courses per semester (most students are in ~15 credit hours at 3 hrs per course), that's $124 for course's textbook.

Private Tutoring

Let's say instead, you decided to hire a private tutor. You meet with them weekly to help get you through the course. Conservatively, let's assume your tutor charges $20 per hour (this is a considerably low tutoring price estimate).

Given that there's 15 weeks in a semester, you would pay $300 for tutoring throughout a course (excluding any additional fees).

Crammer Nation

In contrast, with a Course Cram Kit, the cost of Crammer Nation's help throughout a course is $89.

Tuition

According to Miami University, "tuition for two semesters as an Ohio resident costs $17,808."*

Assuming 5 courses per semester, this equates to $1,780.80 in tuition per course.

We offer resources for 7 of those courses, which a student will be spending an estimated $12,465.60 in tuition for.

Crammer Nation

In contrast, with Unlimited Access, the cost of all Crammer Nation resources in all our course offerings is $349.

Cram Kits are packed with...

• Concept breakdowns to establish a foundational understanding
• Practice problems to solidify understanding

We collect course syllabi, and using them, frame our Cram Kits to the week-by-week schedule of the course.

This enables our custom-built educational resources to align with the concepts students are facing in class throughout the semester.

The concepts you're learning in class are foundational, universally-accepted business concepts taught at universities around the nation.

We deliver a simplified explanation of these core concepts, and craft practice problems to help support your understanding of them.

No different than tutors, to ensure that our resources are relevant, we reference historically used homework problems, exam reviews, practice exams, etc. Please see below for how we maintain academic integrity while doing so.

Our founder, Adam Wise (Miami University 2021 Alumnus), has worked with tutors, teacher assistants, and student experts to craft the concept breakdowns and practice problems contained in Cram Kits. (Want to work with us? Contact us here!)

With his extensive understanding of the Crammer Nation course offering, he is then able to plug these educational resources into Cram Kits that are framed off of given course syllabi.

An Exam Cram Kit provides the concept breakdowns + practice problems for a single exam.

A Course Cram Kit includes all the Exam Cram Kits in an entire course.

Hundreds of Miami Farmer School of Business students have loved using our Cram Kits since January 2020. However, we understand that our online format may not work for all students.

Therefore, we have a 1-week return policy. Please refer to our Terms & Conditions for details.

If you were to get a tutor, they're going to walk you through what you need to be prepared for on your exam. That'll (hopefully) include concept breakdowns and practice problems.

Crammer Nation is no different.

We do what tutors do in an online format, accessible to you whenever & wherever you need it.

All of our content goes through a stringent review policy. During this review, we ensure that the content never copies word-for-word the questions and/or answers on students' actual exams.

Akin to tutoring...

We walk students through custom-built practice problems that relate to, but do not copy, what they'll face on their exams.

College curriculum is ever-changing. While the core concepts taught typically stay the same, small tweaks happen semester-over-semester.

We seek to deliver a top-tier, course-customized study experience to you despite tweaks in curriculum that may happen semester-over-semester. To do that with the maximum effectiveness, we need insight into any curriculum changes.

No different than laying course documents on the table with a tutor, you can upload course documents to us for a tailored online study experience.

NOTICE: Your identity will remain anonymous when uploading. Your privacy is a top priority for us. In addition, there is no reason we'd need to share your name in regards to an upload. Uploads are stored in a private Dropbox server.

Please refer to the below excerpt from Miami's definition of Academic Dishonesty.

Simply put... if your professor indicated not to share it, then don't! We respect professor preferences with the courses they teach.
