I passed!! ? super duper happy and RELIEVED!! I ended up taking a couple more PSI exams and scoring in the high 80's a couple days before so that made me feel more prepared

Definitely sitting here overthinking haha. Can't wait to pass this exam and be done! Thank you for the advice and encouragement! ?

I do suffer from bad test anxiety...I was actually always granted extra time (even though I never used it) in school b/c of my anxiety. I know this is not the NCLEX but I did pass that with flying colors and just overly prepared myself. I'm thinking if I just make some mnemonics and remember classes of medications as you suggested I should be okay. I don't like the idea of basing my readiness on a diagnostic exam either. I'm leaning towards just keeping the August date and going hardcore the next couple days...especially since I'm finally done with clinicals now.

I agree. I suppose I meant like remembering which antibiotics to use for each infectious disease, what each acute abdominal diagnostic test is used for, things like that.

I graduate august 8th- so not yet. I have been studying since late June and I do understand the "why". just a lot of "facts" to remember but I always understand the "why"

anyone with any suggestions at all??

I have my AANP family nurse practitioner boards scheduled for 08/05/21. I have taken both APEA exams and scored a 69% on both. I also took the PSI exams about 1.5 weeks ago and scored a 77% and 73%. I don't know how I feel about these scores...should I reschedule or just go for it? Any suggestions?
