ANCC AGNP-PC August 2018

[QEOLAdvocate]

I took my ANCC for adult Gero primary care this morning and I passed. I am not happy with my performance, but honestly after taking the ANCC, I feel like there isn't a way to adequately prepare for the test.

The wording of the questions and the ultra emphasis on the professional role and that stuff was understood going into the exam, but none of the practice exams or questions prepared me for how information was presented on the ANCC.

I feel like I wasted nearly $250 of the $500 for the Fitzgerald review when none of her questions were representative of the ANCC content...

Plus I used the 3rd gen Leik book.

good luck to each of you taking it! My honest feedback is that if you want to be tested clinically then perhaps look into the AANP.... cause with Adult Gero Primary Care you're not going to get much in the way of clinical diagnosis/planning etc...

I would love to hear from other people who have taken the ANCC and how you felt afterwards.

Good luck!������������

I appreciate you giving feedback on the ANCC AGPCNP exam....I am scheduled to take it next week and I have a tutor that is a AGPCNP and she stated that about 80% of her exam was non-clinical. I took Leik webinar Review before I graduated in May, and she stated that the AGPCNP had more non-clinical on the ancc exam than the FNP exam...My tutor is tutoring me mainly on non-clinical. From what I hear from others that if you read the question, understand what it being asked, the non clinical is primarily common sense. Would you agree?

@spiritualnurse913: I don't agree that it is primarily common sense, almost every question there is 2 right answers and it is damn near luck of the draw to figure out which one is the most correct. Good luck to you and I look forward to hearing how you felt after taking it.
