I'm looking to pursuit it. I've looked that the test preparation programs the ANA offers is expensive...
Any alternatives in terms of studying or test prep aside from the already expensive materias the ANA offers?

Specializes in psych.

I agree with Pixierose on the book. I used that and a course that was offered at my hospital. It is a do-able test.

Good luck!
