ACNP Test

JDCitizen · Jul 15, 2008

I'm 2 days away from taking the acnp certification exam, any tips, hints "help" I can get would be greatly appreciated:bowingpur

Can't help except to say best wishes... Nothing anyone can say right now will put you at ease. I was a mess before boards and probably so was every other nurse.

Just wondering how you did on your test? I take mine on 7/28 and as you well know, am nervous. Any pointers? I have been studying Dr Barkley's notes but worry that they aren't enough!

I'm happy to announce that I PASS, it was stressful but it's done, now if anyone can help, how long before I see that certification/license, anything!

Now to you taking the test 7/28, good luck, I know it sounds hard but relax is not as bad as we think it is, I also use the Barkley review handbook, plus the Fitzgerald, Sally Miller and did questions from Todd, they all helped, they covered the same material.

Congrats, NP!!! :) That makes me feel better to hear that you thought the test was fine and you used Miller, Barkley and Todd because I have been studying from exactly those 3!!

I took my test and passed on 06/27. How long did it take you to get your certificate in the mail?

DaisyRN, ACNP · Jul 23, 2008

i wanna say it was just a week or so... it wasn't very long. i remember being surprised at how soon i got it, considering it took forever to get my authorization to test. i would think you should get it this week or next... i'd call if you didnt get it by then.

I took the ANCC exam for FNP on 6/21 and still have not received a certificate from them. I am not upset because I took the AANP exam and have already received that one, maybe I should call them too.
