  • Hey guys, in this video, I shared the two major resources that I used that helped me pass my ANCC psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner board exam on the FIRST try. I use the purple book and the PMHNP Prep pocket that contains about 800 questions. both resources cost about $90 and did not have to spend over $500 on review courses. I hope this video is helpful. please don't hesitate to comment and let me know if you have any questions.

    I have taken both the FNP & ACNP exams (ANCC). For FNP, I did the Fitzgerald 2-day online live review and felt it was worth every penny. I was well-prepared for boards and passed easily. Just follow the lectures with your workbook and everything you need to know is there. I did Barkley's 2-day online review for ACNP. I felt the material was a bit dry since it wasn't a live course where I could interact, like with Fitzgerald. However, the information was spot-on. Everything we covered was on ANCC.
     I also highly recommend the Barkley's DRT practice exams. You get 2 attempts for the exam. Take the test cold, no prep. It will give you a print out of your weak & strong areas. Use that as a guide to study. Focus on your weak areas. No need to study what you already know! I felt this was extremely useful. When I took the DRT exam the 2nd time, I passed all categories. My board exams were a breeze after preparing this way.
    A few days before the FNP, I watched quite a few Cohen Review videos on TH-cam. I also worked with a guy me and friends got referred to…I found her information to be helpful. I also recommend the TH-cam channel Dirty Medicine. His channel is geared towards USMLE test takers, but many of the concepts are the same. His mnemonics for remembering diabetes medications and anemias are fantastic!
    Good luck with boards 🙂

    Do you know any University offer an affordable tuition for DNP and they accept credits? I regret that I made mistake by taking DNP with Aspen University which is just a scam DNP program. They always made students to repeat classes while they already got an "A" for their class.

    • @aminatakamaradnp

      Unfortunately, majority of these schools only care about making money at the expense of the students. I will first start by looking at DNP schools that are in your state if possible, which is what I did for my DNP FNP. for my postmaster certification, I just did a Google search on affordable school, i look at their coricullum and also utilize facebook group and that lead me to Liberty university. It was the cheapest when compared to Rigis college and Maryville university. I am sorry that this is happening.
