Your post made me feel a little better about where I was at in my studies and gave me hope. The rep must have seen the look on my face because soon after I collected my keys from the locker, she gave me a thumbs up with my congratulations letter. I walked out of the testing room feeling like I failed. I had ten minutes left and thought about going over my answers, but by the that time I was mentally DONE. Still, during the entire test I just knew I was going to fail and have to retest. It was only after that I started seeing material that I was familiar with. While taking the test, the first 30 or so questions I felt like I didn't know. I felt like I walked into the test only knowing lithium levels.THAT'S IT. I was scoring low to mid 60's on board vitals and pocket prep. I used board vitals, pmhnp pocket prep, pmhnp review and resource manual 4th ed, and anything else I could get my hands on. It feels really good typing that title up after my name. Good luck to everyone, and please PM me if you have any specific questions. As a matter of fact I never quite got much better than low 70's on board vitals until after I started to get repeat questions (board vitals is definitely tougher, which is good for prep work).Īnyhow, that was my method. Study anywhere at any time without Internet. View your results and exam history with just a few taps. I scored in the mid-60's consistently on pocket prep, board vitals, and the ANCC questions during the first several weeks of prep. Pocket Prep’s PMHNP-BC practice test app is a powerful exam simulator that allows you to create customized practice tests with detailed answer explanations for every question. I have to say Pocket prep and Board vitals were not exactly like the ANCC exam, but they definitely allowed me to remember key points, concepts, and facts that showed up on the board exam.įor those of you who are currently prepping, have no fear if your scores are low. I find that taking questions repeatedly allows me to learn more aggressively. Like I said, I don't do a whole lot of reading when prepping for board exams, it just puts me to sleep.
