I am so sorry to hear that. I just passed boards last week. I bought Fitzgerald and it did not help me much. I listened to her and took notes and studied her but she did not offer much help. Just random information. I did do Barkley that someone had gave me and it is much more in depth with useful information. I did Barkley (studied the book over and over) and I did Leik. I also did the 600 practice questions in the back of her book. I ordered 10 tests from AANP-FNP.com and mainly used those to see how I was progressing. I would take one test at the end of each week. I studied for 7 weeks, 49 days with no days off, 3 1/2 hours each day. Please regroup and retest. You can do it!

Take a live course before taking your exam again, it is a worth investment.

Were you deficient in the same content areas on both exams?
