Took it this morning and passed. I found the test to be rather uncomplicated. Most of the answers were very obvious. 80% of the test seemed to consist of answer choices where only one really made any sense. Know the basics, standards of care, and treatment guidelines. They will help you answer some of the questions. I used fitzgerald and leik mostly. I felt like this was more than enough. I did some APEA practice questions, while helpful, was kind of a waste of money IMO. Some questions there is really no way to prepare for it other than using clinical common sense. I had like 2-3 non clinical type questions, the rest was clinical based. Canceling my ANCC Tuesday, don't see a point in taking it now. Best of luck everyone! Now its time to start practicing and really getting into it.

That's great!!! Since you already paid for ANCC will you get your money back if you cancel now? Congrats again :-D
I think I will get a partial refund, but they keep $160 unfortunately. I really didn't want to study that theory and research crap anyways
