I just sent in my application today for AANP. I took Hollier's (APEA) review course a few weeks ago and have been studying her notes along with her certification practice questions book with rationales. I also have been studying JoAnn Zerwekh FNP certification review book which is really good. It also comes with a CD with hundreds of practice questions.

Just wanted to know how are you guys studying for the theory/research portion of the ANCC. Any tips. Do you know of anyone who has taken ANCC after March 1st when the test content was revised? Most people who I have spoken with who did not pass ancc said that it was because of all the theory questions. They did well on the clinical questions.

After talking to other students and NPs I've decided to go ahead and take AANP. I will be mailing my application off today. Mostly what everyone has said is that it really doesn't matter which certification you have as long as you are certified. But I would still like to hear from anyone who has taken ANCC after March 1st. Thanks for the info FNPGrad I may consider applying for reciprocity after I take AANP exam.

Hi everyone, I just graduated from an FNP in May 10'. I am undecided as to which exam I am going to take ANCC or AANP. In school they stressed ANCC as they say it has more clout. But I am stressed about taking the ANCC because of all the theory content. Has anyone taken the ANCC after March 1, 2010? How was it and do you have any pointers as to how to study for the theory portion?
