Passed AANP exam 3/12/2016

Published

Just wanted to say I passed. I studied for 1 month straight about 2-3 hours a day.

i used Fitzgerald review books and leik.

i studied through both books and did all their questions. I bought the books from Amazon and I bought the Fitzgerald review book handed out at the live sessions.

After doing thoroughly studying through those books I took the AANP, APEA, Barkley predictors and readiness tests. I did the apea twice. I scored in the 70's which according to the scales is indicative of passing the real exam and I did.

The test I felt was hard but manageable. You have to really read through the questions thoroughly because two of the 4 answer choices are usually thrown in to get you off track.

If there is one thing you take away from this post, take the practice exams into consideration because it gives you rationales and if I remember correctly the structuring of the questions are very similar to the actual exams. Some questions are even word for word almost.

Good luck everyone!

Congrats on passing! Thanks for sharing your experience and tips for studying. Quick questions for you about the practice tests... How far in advance did you take the predictor tests? Did you find any one of them more helpful or accurate than the others? Did you take the AANP FNP or AGNP exam? Thanks in advance!

I took the Hollier review and I felt it really helped. I also took two exams I bought from APEA and did a 69 first and then took another and got a 79. Had to have a 70 to pass. Then I bought the Q bank did lots of questions. I also did all the questions in the Leik book as well as the AANP exam. I must have done 1500-2000 question. I felt the questions helped to put the info from the review into scenarios.
