Fitzgerald Review?

Nursing Students NP Students

Updated:   Published

I'm in a FNP program, due to graduate in May. My instructors are recommending the Fitzgerald review course. It's really expensive; I'm wondering if it's worth it. If I went to the Fitzgerald review live class closest to me, it would be the one in Boston at the end of May.

Can anyone offer recent feedback on the Fitzgerald review?

What other review courses have nurses here really liked?

Thanks!

There are many threads on this subject, so I would search this site for more information. I went with the online and CD reviews because I could complete them at my own pace and rewatch as needed. I did Fitz and Hollier online and also listened to Barkley CDs. If I had to choose one, I would probably choose Hollier. I think the online Hollier review combined with Fitz and Leik review books is a good way to go.

I'm attending the Fitz review in Boston in May. Using the Leik book, Hollier review, q-bank and several other sources to study. The Fitz review is the one my advisor recommended - most of us are going to take the ANCC exam rather than AANP. The class that graduated last May from my college all attended Fitz -- 100% pass rate for the class on ANCC :up:

That's a very good passing rate, how many tested?

There were 8 last year - the university has small classes, usually 8 - 15 for FNP. 100% pass rate for the past 12 years of the program. Not sure what pass rates were prior to that, just know my advisor threatens us not to ruin her perfect record :speechless:

-- no, I am at a brick and mortar in Maine. They have just switched to online for graduate nursing - still have to be on campus for summer intensives and mandatory testing prior to graduation. Good program, I have no complaints.

Do NOT use Fitzgerald if you want access to their online portal.

Complete waste of money. Customer service has no idea how to solve the problems.

Completed live course and planned to take exam 3.5 weeks later and utilize the online component during that time. However, the online component was down during that entire time. Nobody offered me any sort of refund.
