I recently took the Adult-Gerontology CNS ANCC exam I April 2017 an passed. Because there were limited study information, I decided to type this post.The resources that I used to study are as follows: 1. Answer all the blueprint questions listed on the ANCC site for parts II-III( using Hamric, Bastabler, NACNS -Clinical Nurse Specialist Practice Book and your research book).*make flash cards * 2. Studied Marie Leik AG Primary Care Nurse Practitioner review book (Read X2) & I took her webinar review course 2 weeks before I took the exam. 3. Exam Edge online test questions 5 bundle pack 4. Studied the blue print questions 3-4 days weekly and the clinical portion (Marie Leik) 2-3 days wkly for 2 months. 5. I believe in vitamins, SO I stepped game up. 6. Relaxation Days 2 most weeks. 7 This was my second attempt, the first time I did not use any of these resources.
