Failing ACNP Exam

[susanuhrig]

I'm soooo upset! I have 3.8 gpa after graduating from college. I took the acute care program because I had no intention of caring for peds, babies or women's health. I really regret that decision now! I'm NOT a critical care nurse, however I do work on a Tele unit.

I totally bombed the first exam with ANCC & decided to try with AACN. 1st time missed by 10, 2nd time missed by 6! Went back to ANCC & missed by 3! OMG!

This has gotten ridiculous, sites anyone have any suggestions? I'm testing again next week. Before I'm done I'll have these exams memorized.

Thank you!

So sorry for your frustration.

I have moved your thread to the Student NP forum for current student's advice. Best wishes for slaying this dragon!

Sorry to hear this! You are freaking me out now!! I am graduating in December and will take the AACN exam in January. How are you studying for these exams? I'll let you know if I find out anything good about study tips.
