APEA, Fitzgerald and LEIK, which one?

Published

Hi all, I have all these to study for the AANP. I am so confused which one should I use. Fitzgerald is too much info. APEA or LEIK not sure if that is enough. I did Fitzgerald live review in 2015 did not pass. I did LEIK review in 2016 but did not pass. I barely used APEA when I was still in school but they told me its good with content because you also have Qbank that you can get which you can take system by system. But I have already exam edge. So now I'm confused which one should I be more concentrating. Please help. Thank you.

You need to use all of them! Take another live review course and then review and study each body system, using all 3 books.

Hi gdj,

I took the FNP AANP exam yesterday and passed. I used the Fitzgerald online review. I also did the predictor exams with APEA. I found that at least a couple questions on the boards were identical to APEA. I would use both of those resources. I feel like between the two, they covered a lot on the test. Best of luck!

What was your score with APEA predictor exam? Would you recommend doing the questionnaires and rationale only or have to do another review content?

Have you tried BoardVitals for practice questions? The questions are more difficult than what was on boards (I took the ANCC FNP exam), but the rationales for the answers are very detailed and cite their sources if you need further information. They offer test banks geared toward the ANCC or AANP FNP exam. It was a bit pricey but very much worth it.

I have not taken boards yet; but have had 2 review courses APEA and Barkley, I've been impressed with both.

I haven't tried yet. The only thing I noticed is that when I went to pay the practice test through PSI exams some of the questions where in my exam before.
