A study plan that works for you.
Nurse anesthesia school doesn't run on a fixed schedule. Upload your syllabi and class material, and Aura builds flashcards, practice questions, and a week-by-week plan around your real exam dates — then reshapes it as your semester moves and your scores change.

The real problem
Your program doesn't follow a board-prep calendar.
Didactic blocks, program exams, clinical rotations — every semester looks different, and a generic study schedule falls apart by week two. Aura plans around your actual semester, builds study material from your own classes, and makes sure what you study is right: every question and rationale in the bank is audited by a practicing CRNA.
A plan built around your semester
Add your classes
Upload your syllabi, slides, and notes. Aura pulls out your quiz, exam, and OSCE dates and organizes everything by class.
Get your plan
A week-by-week study plan, flashcards, and practice questions built from your own material and focused on your weakest domains.
Adjust as you go
New semester, new syllabus, a rough quiz? Your plan updates to match — so you always know what to study next.
One place, the whole program
Didactic year to board day — here's what you get along the way.
A plan that moves with your semester
Upload each class's syllabus and Aura pulls your real quiz, exam, and OSCE dates into a week-by-week plan that adapts to your performance — program exams and the NCE alike.
Study from your own material
Upload your program's slides, notes, and handouts. Aura reads them and builds quizzes, flashcards, and tutor answers from YOUR professor's actual curriculum — not a generic outline.
Turn lectures into study material
Record your pharmacology lecture, upload the audio, and Aura turns it into searchable, quizzable notes — so nothing you heard in class gets lost by finals.
An AI tutor that cites its sources
Ask anything and Aura answers in AANA language — and shows you the reference it came from. Grounded in a licensed clinical library, not a black box that makes things up.
Flashcards that make it stick
Spaced-repetition cards (FSRS) — the same algorithm Anki uses — keep material fresh straight through to board day, so you relearn far less later. Generate verified cards from references in one tap.
Every NBCRNA question format — audited
A 4,850+ item bank across all 7 content domains with multi-select, drag-drop, and calculation items — the exact formats the NBCRNA uses. Every rationale audited by a practicing CRNA.
What we are — and what we're not
No video lectures. No 40-hour course you'll never finish. Aura is purely high-yield, audited Q&A, spaced-repetition flashcards, and a source-citing tutor — the things that actually move your score in the weeks before boards. If you want a documentary, we're not it. If you want to walk in ready, we are.
Frequently asked questions
Are the answers actually correct?
Yes — and that's the whole point. Every question and rationale is written and audited by a practicing CRNA, not crowdsourced from forums. The AI tutor and generated flashcards are grounded in a licensed clinical reference library and cite their sources, so you can check the work yourself.
Do I need an account to try it?
No. The readiness diagnostic is completely free — about 20 questions in 5 minutes, no account and no credit card. You'll get a readiness score, a domain-by-domain breakdown, and audited rationales for every question. When you're ready to close your gaps, create a free account for full access.
Do you have video lectures?
No — and that's deliberate. Aura is purely high-yield, audited Q&A, spaced-repetition flashcards, and a source-citing tutor. We focus on the things that actually raise your score in the weeks before boards rather than hours of video you won't finish.
Is this only for board prep, or for the whole program?
The whole program. Aura is built to start in didactic year: upload your course material as you learn it, pass your program exams, and keep that material fresh with spaced repetition so you walk into the NCE with far less to relearn. Clinical-year and final board prep work the same way — it's one place start to finish.
Is this built for NARs specifically?
Yes. Aura Anesthesia was built by a practicing CRNA specifically for nurse anesthesia residents. Every feature — the question bank, the AI tutor, the study roadmap — is grounded in AANA practice standards and the NBCRNA content outline.
Can I upload my own class materials?
Yes — that's the point. Upload your program's slides, lecture notes (PDF or Word), or audio recordings of class. Aura reads your materials and builds quizzes, flashcards, and tutor answers from YOUR professor's actual curriculum, organized into class folders so you can study one course at a time.
What is the NCE?
The National Certification Exam (NCE) is the credentialing exam administered by the NBCRNA that every nurse anesthesia graduate must pass to become a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA).
How many questions are on the NCE?
The NCE is a computer-adaptive test of 100 to 170 questions covering basic sciences, equipment and technology, basic principles of anesthesia, and advanced principles of anesthesia.
How should I study for the NCE?
Most NARs combine a question bank with spaced repetition, blueprint-aligned cheat sheets, and timed mock exams. Aura Anesthesia delivers all three in a mobile-first app built specifically for NARs.
What does it cost?
Nothing. Aura is free — the diagnostic, the audited question bank, adaptive practice exams, AI tutor, flashcards, and your personalized study roadmap. No credit card, no trial clock.
