NP reference books

I found Margaret Fitzgerald NP resources were great. I came across her resources after hearing her speak at an Illinois APN conference. She has a myriad of resources but I believe the one I used the most was a comprehensive review for boards. I used it for NP program review for tests as well as review for certification.

Additionally, my program utitilized Uphold & Graham Clinical Guidelines for Adult Nurse Practitioners. I still have it at my office for quick reference.

Which specialty is your NP program? I did ACNP, and I found Sally Miller's review course (comes with a booklet) very helpful. Also, I bought Thomas Barkley's audio tapes/booklet to also help me study for my ACNP exam...and his study guide was so awesome too! I really wish I had bought those 2 during NP school, because it really breaks things down into simple terms, and also highlights the most important pieces of info to know about each disease.

Hey Everyone!!!!!

Does anyone have great recommendations for NP school study aids during school and for boards after graduation?????

-Thanks in advance for suggestions:yeah:

For the FNP, I studied Fitzgerald's latest edition on the certification exam review. That's all I studied and I passed the test with no problems. When I remember, I use this as a reference as well.

Someone told me that a lot of his test questions in school came directly from that book (lazy professors)! I didn't get that lucky!
