So I passed the ANCC Adult/ Gero Primary Care boards today and I must say it was easier than I thought that it would be . So now I'm officially An AGPCNP-BC.. I'm still in disbelief .. I have been reading this message board for months trying to get an understanding of what to focus my studies on.. I'm pretty much stuff with Fitzgerald. I purchased her review book and took the live course in Tampa back in May with Dr. Miller who was nothing but awesome .. She outlined everything extremely well.. I made flash cards and notes and studied that religiously. So as far as exam tips I will tell you to familiarize your self with derm topics - PUTONS for BCC and NOSUN for SCC also know your ABCDE for melanoma. Also have a understanding of cardiac murmurs such as MRPASS wins MVP and MSARD.. Know the sounds such as Blowing /Harsh murmur sounds .. Medication Contraindications with renal disease..Know the how oral diabetic agents work in the body.. There were a lot of research based questions just know terminology.. Hope this helps!!!!! Pretty much if you know your stuff you will pass .. Relax and stay focused ..
