That does sound awful and may at times even be unsafe. Good luck!

I posted a few months back but quick background... I was ANCC certified as an Adult NP since 2005. I decided to go back for my FNP so I completed a Post Masters Program through UMASS Boston. Because I was already an Adult NP, I was A&E to do the ...

For ANCC there was no actual heart/lung sounds on the exam. I studied for about a month. Again though I have been a practicing Adult NP since 2005 so that helped in many aspects but also hurt in some other aspects as well. You do find out if you pass...

Congrats!!!!!!

Where are you getting your questions from? There aren't questions like that. I suggest the resources I previously mentioned. Definitely get the ANCC book and take the 150 question test in the back of the book. Also buy test from FamilyNPprep.com, the...

Yes that is true. And yes that made me nervous. I became an Adult NP in 2004 so I don't know how much I remember from that test but this FNP exam was just so different from what I thought it would be. I can't wait to get my score in the mail so I can...

Good job!!!

From what I heard AANP is more clinical than ANCC. I didn't realize that prior until reading different comments. I went with ANCC for my FNP because that's who I used for my ANP. As far as your questions ask and I will see if I can answer it.

I think every source that you are currently using is perfect.

Sorry I hit send before I was done typing. Lastly I also used the Leik Family NP Intensive Review along with 300 questions in the back of the book. I really liked this book. But overall I would say I got something from each of the review sources that...

I used Fitzgerald FNP online review course. I listened to that a lot. I also took her test. I also used the 2 volume ANCC review books and took the test in the back of the book. I bought 10 test from FNPtest but I actually only took four of the test....

Thank you!!! Good luck to all future board takers and again I am available for any questions.

Yes there was a fair amount of those questions but they actually weren't bad at all. The question would say what two things or what three things so you knew how many answers were right. There is a good amount of healthcare practice type questions and...

I too have been an Adult NP for 9 yrs and just completed a Post Masters FNP through UMASS Boston online. It will only require you to take 3 classes plus 300 clinical hours (220 Peds and 80 in OB) I will be sitting for the ANCC FNP boards on June 18th...

Hi, I have been an Adult NP since 2005 and decided to go back for FNP. I just completed a Post Master's Cert program through UMASS and will now be sitting fo rthe FNP boards soon. I am concerned about boards!!! Having been a practicing NP for so long...

Is there a reason why not being build under your own number? Is the MD seeing the same patient as you on the same day?

In a mixed Primary care practice about 25 should be the top of your patients seen per day. Is it ran as a Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH)? If they continue to pressure you beyond your comfort level I would suggest definitely looking for a new po...

Yes worth time and money to become an NP if that's what you desire to do. I would say most NPs chose advanced practice for the education and role not for the bottom line salary. RNs that make that much money do not generally work M-F 40 hrs per week....

Is the physician in your practice board certified in Asthma, Allergy, and Immunology?

It would be nice if we were able to specialize through an actual program with a board exam. Physicians and PAs have options to specialize and get boarded. Something like a fellowship for NPs. I would love to hear what others think.

Is your question specific for a board certification in a specialty during a formal program rather than working in a specific area? I'm an Adult NP through ANCC since 2005 and I just completed an online Family NP Post Masters Certificate through UMASS...

Get your BSN then commission in. Possibly they will still have loan repayment programs. If you are not too old you can also consider coming in through ROTC. Good advice to talk to a Navy Healthcare recruiter first, anything promised HAS to be in writ...

I choose to go back for FNP mostly because I am active duty officer in the Army Nurse Corps and FNP is the only NP that is truly recognized. But even without that motivation before I commissioned into the Army when I was looking into relocating and t...

Congrats!!! Thank you for the post!!! I took ANCC for my Adult NP in 2005 but I don't really remember any of the details that made me successful so I thank you for this post as I start prepping for the ANCC FNP boards.
