A&P was more difficult, just by the sheer volume of info! I studied A&P for a few months and kept putting off the exam, and then I just scheduled the darn thing. I work best with deadlines. :)

A&P took me almost 6 weeks, alot of materials I used the EC study guide, practice test A before the studying and form B just a week before the actual test also I reviewed the rationale on the practice test for both the right , wrong answers by making notes. Micro about 3 weeks. Yahoogroups it's a good resources; they have notes, files and even some practice test. Try them and good luck:)

I didn't have to take A&P but I do have to take Micro, but I am not taking it until I pass cpne on Jan 22nd! Let me know how micro goes, when you take it!
I Jlrevis I took Mirco last week. I made a B on the exam. Just be sure to buy and take the practice exams ( very, very helpful). But please anyone/ everyone I would love to keep getting feedback on A&P.
Thank you,

I took A&P. I studied for about 4 weeks . . . I had a hard time focusing b/c it was my last exam and I had just gotten my CPNE date a week b/4 the exam. I had A&P I in LPN but it didn't transfer to EC. On the EC exam I got an "A" to my utter amazement. I only scored 51 on practice exam A and after a few weeks of study I got another 51 on practice exam B. I didn't review any Anatomy d/t I remember a lot from previous course and had heard that the test was heavy on physiology (it was). I used my old LPN flashcards and A&P book, focused on physiology, on the rationales of the practice exams, and the EC outline areas that I was weak. Hope this helps.
