How did you pass the ANCC certification exam?

I've heard Margaret Fitzgeralds stuff is the best but seems like ANCC's stuff would focus more on the test content. I just graduated with my MSN FNP and want to get certified on the first try. Any suggestions?

I did the fitz CD's for review (that was my bible). She is great for clinical review, but honestly I do not think there any superior reviews that will prepare you for all the other crap that is on that exam. Topics are very broad, so much psycho-social issues, policy, some legal. Its the craziest test I have ever taken! Good luck!

I passed! It actually was a lot easier than I thought and I felt way "over-prepared". I have often wondered why nursing exams have to play games rather than truly testing one's knowledge base. Just my humble musings.
