Very reliable and cooperative support team, which in my perspective is most important for this kind of service.

It's been around 8 months since I enrolled in this course, and it has been nothing less than a roller coaster ride. I believe that enrolling in this course was one of the best decisions of my life. I had always been an average student throughout my life, struggling to consistently dedicate long hours to studying. One day, I would study out of motivation, and the next day, I would become lax in my efforts. I realized that with this attitude and skill set, I would never be able to achieve my goals.

That's when I decided to seek more efficient ways to learn and came across iCS. Initially, I was reluctant to change my study methods, but as I delved deeper, I found them to be incredibly interesting and logical. Gradually, my old, inefficient, and boring methods began to feel illogical and fell by the wayside. It's been 8 months now, and I can clearly see the changes I have undergone and the mastery I have achieved.

The Discord community has been incredibly helpful in this journey, and I sincerely thank all the coaches and my fellow students for keeping me motivated to continue. Now, I can efficiently cover large topics and confidently retain and apply the knowledge. Additionally, I am grateful for the skills such as time and goal management, a growth mindset, and reflection that I have acquired through this course.

The quality of service and technological experience they provide is indeed of a high standard.

iCanStudy opens a world of possibilities. It helped me understand which traits of my learning approach I can improve, while giving me the most efficient tools to do so, and how to maximase the yield of what is already contributing to my academic success.
The teachings on self-regulated learning are, in my opinion, an extremely valuable part of this programme and overall the course is a great way to invest in one's self!

Love the work they are doing!

Joined their program, and it has been mind-blowing. So well structured and gives you the best insights on anybody's learning journey!

The expert feedback from Tanzeer one of the iCanStudy coaches was fantastic. He was analytical, honest, kind and provided me with some great advice and importantly highlighted the steps I can take to ensure I improve.

For context I started to fall behind in mid-high school and could not really get on top of things with all that I could muster and at this time, I have some time on my hands to improve myself.
From iCanStudy, I got the idea of always asking how things fit in and looking at topics holistically and then building on my understanding in a way that mirrors expert knowledge from the go has already been a boost to my confidence before my finals, a system to track my experiments and keep track of my growth and to overall develop my own solid system of understanding has been a major boost in my communication as well.
Customer support typically reply within 24 hours and have done as many cycles as it took to resolve all the challenges I have faced and the coaches are more reachable when you book expert reviews or contribute actively to the community.
While I am still in the process, I will do well to update this review as often as I should to put my most current perspectives on the course available to everyone who may want to use it for part of their own evaluation.
I hope this is enough information to begin to understand my own view of the course. feel free to post your follow up questions.

I have been doing this course for a few weeks now. I am a Ph.D and a professional in a field that requires a huge amount of study, and I am struggling right now, so I decide to try this course.
I have to say, the level of competence is really high, I didn't excpect such a great course. Also, I am not Enligh or American (sorry for my poor English), but the way he speaks is really clear.
If you are seriuous about improving your learning skills, and willing to follow the instructions, you can't go wrong with this course.
Money wise, it worth it!!

ICS is the reason that I achieved a first class degree in History from the University of Oxford.

2 weeks before my finals last year I was in hospital with a terrible illness. I was faced with either failing my entire degree, or taking a full year out - I chose the latter. It took me months to recover and afterwards, I remember sitting in the library in my hometown, staring at thousands of pages of written notes completely lost as to how to even begin studying. The four finals worth 55% of my degree hung over my head. I stumbled on Justin's Youtube videos and enrolled in ICS out of a sense that I truly had nothing to lose.

Over 8 months, I learned how to study sustainably, transformed my mindset to find my mistakes intriguing rather than terrifying and returned to smash my four final exams, scoring high enough to pull my average up over the grade boundary. Prior to ICS, I achieved a 1st in less than a 1/4 of my work - afterwards, I achieved a 1st in 3/4 of my work. The numbers speak for themselves.

I implore anyone who is on the fence to just jump in. It's completely normal to be skeptical about the impact this course can make - it seems impossible it could really be everything it says it is. But the experience I've laid out above is the proof.
This course will not coddle you, it's difficult and it will not tell you everything is okay when it's not. But it actually works, and is based on hard scientific evidence that is reliable, sustainable, and gives you the tools you need to succeed no matter how difficult the challenge. This is the solution for anyone who is willing enough to try.

I also want to thank everyone who has made ICS what it is - to Justin, Michael, the coaches, and the amazing community from around the world. They have a truly revolutionary vision for what education could be, how it could serve every student no matter their background, innate abilities or resources.

Fantastic! There are many more superlatives I can use to describe the course, but I'd be writing for a while. After being in a slump in 2021, I came across the course from word of mouth. Slowly after adopting the techniques of the course, I started seeing transformations, I thought that they were unreal! Procrastination no longer exists for me, I'm always on top of my time and tasks, my health is at its prime, and it only continues to get better, and I'm able to learn efficiently and still perform to a good standard. The course not only has helped with my studying routine, but has also enhanced my personal development and self-improvement journey. Wonderful course, probably one of the best courses I have taken in my life so far.

truly transformative! well, where do I start?

I had some doubts before I started the course, I had some doubts about the value I would get from it. I took the plunge, so I could give myself a clearer look behind the curtains.

The course is daunting to say the least. BUT there is amazing support from the network of coaches and peers. You are immediately admitted into a huge family and it is up to you to use the resources around you. This is not for those who want to be spoon-fed. If you are a go-getter and self-driven, you will have immense fun with this. Few reasons for this

1. The course is well structured and gamified which makes you want to climb the progress ladder. Videos are bite-sized and actionable so you can experience early gains without having too wait too long.

2. The information you receive is world-class and very in-depth. Clearly, a lot of thought and effort has gone into the preparation of the material. What you receive is liquid gold and well worth its weight in dollars (or grades for you gunners out there). Every thing taught is very original, actionable and impactful on your learning. Learning as a process for me is much more visual, connected, coherent and enjoyable. It is what I've always deeply felt it should be.

3. Absolute legends the team is. The character and heart exemplified by the team is second to none. I have been in other guru rooms or studying/learning programmes but one thing that shines here is the heart and care of the team. They go the extra mile to make sure you are taken care of. The amount of work that goes on behind the scenes really shows in the quality of teaching.

These people are educators. And they dedicate themselves to their craft.

iCanStudy locks up your course for about 1 month in total - even when you’re actively paying for the subscription.

This forces you to extend your subscription - even though they mask it as “mandatory period to revise and reflect”.

When you go through the course, you’ll see that by how they structure the course, they want to keep you as a paying customer for about 1.5 years.

Their course does not actually have many things to teach but Justin and his team deliberately makes the videos extremely long and have multiple videos on the same concept.

I’m sorry to say but if you think Justin is really trying to help you learn then…. you’ve been tricked. Justin and team are just trying to milk you for as much money as they can.

Btw many people also feel iCanStudy is buying fake comments and likes just to sell his course…. very fishy and scummy (you can see it on Reddit). Many people in the course are also complaining about their rubbish lock up.

They justified it saying they’re trying to help you learn better by NOT rushing through the course, even though they keep teaching you to pre-study everything. How can you pre-study their very own learning course when they deliberately lock it up to milk you of more money?

The truth is, doctors really don’t earn that much and it’s a lot of hard work (so we should respect them). Justin clearly knows this so he has chosen the shady business practice path because he is so desperate for money.

If he just did the course sincerely without lockups and really has the objective as sharing his knowledge to teach for a reasonable price (instead of FOREVER subscriptions), then i would recommend it.

Justin and his team are a real bunch of crooks. Better stay away from them.

——————————————————

I’m an avid learner who skipped university, worked in banking & finance, consulting, oil and gas, IT and did a few businesses of my own successfully too. I am retired and it was only possible through voracious learning. I am always happy to learn from others and improve my learning speed - thus I signed up for the iCanStudy course

Throughout the course I keep facing mandatory lock up and exams on the website that I must pass with FULL MARKS to view the next chapter of the course. This is incredibly annoying and I emailed them a few times to either 1) unlock my course or, 2) extend my subscription by the number of days it was locked up. They refused both.

They asked me to send in my “homework” to prove I knew how to mind map. So I sent them quite a few documents from different industries I’ve been in. As expected, they said it didn’t meet their standards and asked me to HAND DRAW my mind maps - even though the mind maps /infographics I sent over were use at the CEO / CFO / COO level of Fortune 500 companies.

When I replied I disagreed with them, they said I had misaligned educational values - BECAUSE I wasn’t following their method exactly.

In summary, I love the mission of what Justin and his team is doing - learning how to learn is EVERYTHING. But….

Problems

Shady business tactics locking up courses to charge customers more

You must follow their way EXACTLY otherwise you can’t continue the course (and you’ll be insulted by them - coach Ashton Sheares in particular)

They only focus on academic exams, not learning for application in real life.

Coaches only have academic experience and cannot comprehend things are much more complex when applying knowledge in the real world

Benefits

I clarified some things I’m doing is in line with their framework. Didn’t learn anything new but clarification is good also

I would like to thank you , dr sung , and the whole crew for this live clinic. I am sorry for the nonsense that you receive in the internet .

The experience is great. It is a really engaging and a two way experience where the coaches work hard to resolve all our problems. The doubts are answered and their support system is undeniably helpful. You can't possibly mess up with the very nuanced guidelines and a super active community. 10/10.

I got a deeper and more hands-on approach on the topic, and got to hear how other people in my similar position dealt with their problems and what their primary focus was for the topic.
I really enjoyed this live clinic.

The date I joined the course till now I really transformed I had seen this is whole new world of learning and what's good about this is I use these methods of learning in my religious studies too.. because of habit to see everything in relation.Other than study I started less procrastination,more retrieval and performing better in new way.. thankyou Dr Justin and team..

First clinic. Really interesting to have a bit of 'pre study' knowing that there were things talked about that will be coming up for me later. I really enjoyed the 'guest format'. Thanks.

it was good, justin tried best to use the concept he teaches to explain the math problems, well done!

ICS has completely transformed my perspective towards learning. I've experienced dramatic improvements in my study efficiency, and I've also developed self-management skills that have contributed to my personal growth immensely. One can not expect, however, to have such a dramatic transformation in a few days or weeks. It takes time to see significant improvements. This is why I think the support provided by the ICS community is so valuable. The coaches are genuinely interested in helping students succeed, and the amount of feedback they provide you is amazing. Because of this, I was always motivated to persevere with my learning journey. The fact that Justin is so involved and continuously adding new content is also great. Overall, I feel that my investment was totally worth it.

I’m beyond grateful, that I’ve found the iCanStudy course. I can definitely recommend the course, and it’s completely true, that it’s as good as it sounds!
I’ve been on the course for around 7 months, and I study medicine in Denmark (just finished the first semester).

I have just finished my exams for the first semester, and I just got the result from the most difficult exam; I got an A! From the statistics I can see, that only 4% got an A, and I can’t really fathom, that I’m one of those people. I didn’t really study that hard for it (only about 4-5 hours a day maybe), and I had lots and lots of free time to socialize, train and watch netflix! It’s just crazy to think about!
Beforehand - in high school - I studied really hard, since I wanted to get into med school. I swore about active recall and spaced repitition, but I really grew to absolutely hate and “fear” studying. My results were good, but I also spent sooo much time! Way more time than I do now! And now - in med school - I really couldn’t use the same methods, since there is so much more material.
For anyone considering starting this course, please do! Your future self will definitely thank you for it!
And thank you so much to the entire iCanStudy team for making this amazing course and helping so many people! I’m looking forward to continuing this journey after the summer break, where I'll start learning about anatomy.
