Study
Questions, curriculum and a tutor that answers back.
Question Bank
Board-style NBRC practice questions covering all 17 content areas across 3 TMC domains. Full A–D rationales for every answer. Filter by clinical area, cognitive level, patient type, and difficulty.
Learning Hub
Structured curriculum modules covering every testable NBRC topic. Includes ABG Masterclass, Ventilator Masterclass, Pharmacology reference, and a core formula library with built-in calculators.
AI Clinical Tutor
Anthropic Claude powers a clinically-aware tutor grounded in the NBRC content outline. Ask anything — it returns structured clinical cards: ABG interpretations, medication plans, reasoning chains, exam pearls, differential diagnoses.
Simulate
Practice under exam and bedside conditions.
Mock NBRC Exam
Full-length timed TMC-style exam: 160 questions with a 3-hour countdown. Scored by clinical area with an estimated readiness score. Review every question with rationales after submission.
Ventilator Simulator
Real-time physics-based ventilator simulation. Adjust FiO₂, PEEP, tidal volume, rate, and inspiratory flow — watch ABGs, SpO₂, and waveforms respond in real time. 16 disease profiles from ARDS to BPD.
AI Clinical Shift
Full hospital workflow simulation. The AI plays ICU attending, bedside RN, and charge RT simultaneously. Receive real pager alerts, make clinical decisions, get scored on each action. Ends with debrief + pearls.
Alarm Trainer
Randomized ventilator alarm scenarios with step-by-step troubleshooting protocols. Covers high pressure, low pressure, apnea, auto-PEEP, disconnect, and more.
Reference
Bedside tools you can open mid-question.
ABG Calculator
Real-time ABG interpretation with color-coded value feedback (H/L/N badges per parameter). Automatic primary disorder detection, compensation assessment, P/F ratio with ARDS severity tier, A-a gradient, and step-by-step clinical reasoning.
Vent Modes Reference
Complete ventilator mode reference with ICU monitor-style waveform panels. Covers VC, PC, PSV, PRVC/VC+, APRV, SIMV, and CPAP — with Trigger/Limit/Cycle breakdown, PB980 labels, NBRC pearls, and Auto-PEEP warning card.
Decision Trees
Interactive clinical decision flowcharts for common RT scenarios. Guides you through assessment → diagnosis → intervention logic the same way NBRC exam questions test your reasoning.
Progress
Everything above feeds one picture of your readiness.
Smart Dashboard
AI-personalized study hub. Shows an estimated NBRC readiness score, clinical-area breakdowns, study streak, weakest content areas, and daily study plan recommendations — all calculated from your actual practice history.
Achievements & Streaks
Unlock achievement badges as you hit milestones: first correct answer, 7-day streak, 100 questions answered, area mastery. Study streaks shown on dashboard — daily practice compounds faster than weekend cramming.

Common questions
Plans, content and how the pieces fit.
- How many questions are in the question bank?
- 250+ NBRC-style questions across all 17 content areas (I.A–III.I), with rationales for all answer choices. New questions are added regularly.
- Is this just a question bank?
- No. RRT Academy includes a question bank, AI tutor, physics-based ventilator simulator, alarm trainer, AI clinical shift simulation, ABG calculator, vent modes reference, ${rtFormulas.length} core NBRC formula calculators, clinical decision trees, and a full learning hub.
- How does the AI Tutor work?
- The tutor is powered by Claude (Anthropic). It returns structured clinical cards — not raw text. Ask about any NBRC topic and get formatted responses: ABG interpretations, medication plans, differential diagnoses, NBRC exam pearls.
- Can I use RRT Academy for my school's program?
- Yes. Programs can buy annual access for their whole cohort. Our team sets up your students' accounts and shares cohort progress reports. Contact us for institutional pricing.
- What is Deep Prep Plus?
- 365 days of full access. Eligible students who do not pass the covered exam receive one additional 90-day extension at no extra charge, subject to the Deep Prep Plus terms. Your 90 days run from your original expiry date or your approval date, whichever is later — review time never shortens your extension. The remedy is additional study time, not a cash refund. The Deep Prep Plus terms page is authoritative.
- Is this aligned to the NBRC TMC blueprint?
- Yes. All content is mapped to the NBRC TMC 2024 blueprint. Section weights are derived directly from the published item counts and are used in the readiness score calculation.
