Hi all, So, I just wanted to pay it forward and post about my experience in passing the ANCC FNP exam with the utmost transparency and encouragement. For starters, I don’t think I’m unintelligent...
I just wanted to check back in for 2019 and let everyone know that I’m STILL using the same MacBook from 2010 that I mentioned in my original post. I’ve only had one issue a few years back with...
From my understanding, if you have already scheduled and missed the appointment then you automatically forfeit the $200 testing fee. I don't think that it counts against the number of test attempts...

@ ohyesitslizz Bummer! I checked within 48 hours of completing the exam (which was around 1100 on 8/5/13). Perhaps this is why you can't see your option to view your Quick Results? I would try again...
