I'm now taking both the FCCA's concurrently. If you truly studied ALL resources (books,articles) when taking your courses and/or exams, you can take both at the same time with success. Problem is, some people do not. They just try to wing the nursing part with minimal studying. If that person is you, you are the reason they are 8 wks each. You will need the time to study. While it's not the hardest thing I've ever done, it's not the easiest. A solid knowledge base and critical thinking skills are required. There are no simple questions or answers. Success is up to you!!!!
