AANP Exam: Success?!

Nursing Students NP Students

Published

Hey all, I have lurked on this site for many years. This site helped me so much with NCLEX and also about NP schools. Well, the next chapter in my life is about to end. Climatic and nauseating this chapter is! I take the AANP in 6 days for FNP. I am totally stressed out, anxious, can sleep. My practice quizzes have wild ranges. I started out with only scoring 65-69. After studying and studying and studying I am now consistently at 72-76 and that one exciting time of an 82. I took the mock exam on the aanp site and got an 85. I'm freaking out. Can I, will I pass?! I need a crystal ball or at least some advice and support from my fellow AllNursers!

Will u pass? It depends.

85 is pretty good for the sample test but i would feel a lot better with scores of >85-90s in all of your practice tests for each topic. Are you using the Qbank for the quizzes? It will also depend on the study resources you are using.

Hi! I have been using multiple resources. Including exam edge, apea qbank, Leik, and Fitzgerald. I have don't fitzgeralds online review and I also have a copy of barkleys book that a friend gave me. So I have been digging in to all of that including various notes and lectures from school that I have put together in a binder to review that also has all the guidelines. I typically don't repeat any of the questions I do because I want to do as many different ones as possible and learn from each plus I don't want to answer based on memorization of question and answer. When I did my first apea predictor in June I got a 65% I did another one after studying some July 17 and got a 73. I just don't know what to expect!
