 Rating:  - Just passed my ANCC for FNPI just passed my ANCC today and here are some books I wish I had in school. The following helped me to pass the ANCC because they are most like the test. First, Margaret Fitzgerald's book Nurse Practitioner Certification Examination and Practice Preparation is a great must have book for school and test prep. If you can, take her live seminar or get the CDs. Next Leik's book Family Nurse Practitioner Certification Intensive Review:Fast Facts and Practice Questions, great book, good to synthesize all ... Read More Rating: - Too many mistakesThere are so many errors throughout this book that I fear for the less informed reader. I disagreed with most of her answers but the good thing was that it forced me to look up the information to verify that indeed I was correct and this author was WRONG! I cannot believe that this book was published and am tempted to write to the publisher. I hope the author reads all of these comments because she needs to go through her own "book" and look up each topic and LEARN the correct responses. Unbelievable ...

The CD accompanyings this book only has 400+ questions on it and it does not supply rationale for the questions on the CD. There are several errors in the questions and a few questions in the book have different answers than the CD. Do yourself a favor do not buy this book. Rating: - I Know a Bad Book When I See One!!I wish you allowed for negative stars, because this book really deserves one. I purchased four review books and saved this one until last. Thank goodness the other three were really good, because this one is so bad!! I might overlook the numbering sequence errors and the mixed up order of the rationales, but the errors in the questions are unconscionable. Take question number 6-83 and I quote: Your clinet Casey, a 69-year-old chronic smoker, has called you to find out the results of his recent ... Read More Rating: - Don't waste your time or moneyThis book contains a lot of review questions. Unfortunately, a great number of them are far more detailed than necessary for entry level practitioners, and frequently provide answers that are just plain wrong. Several of my classmates and I, who went through our FNP program with excellent averages, were terrified we would flunk the certification exam after doing dismally on the practice tests in this book. After putting this book aside and studying from the Fitzgerald review course material and her review ... Read More
