8. How did you pass the ANCC certification exam?

   dojo2 replied to beckyfnp's topic in NP Students

   It is definitely a relief when it is over. I too felt as some of you did that I had failed while taking the exam. I came out of the testing area and my reply to the proctor was "That was awful". She said "you'll never have to do this again," but ...
