Editorial Review:
This practical review book meets the needs of family nurse practitioners preparing to take the national certification examinations. It provides content on both the FNP's approach to practice based on the Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan, Evaluate (SOAPE) format and a format that accommodates both the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) and the test blueprint of the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). Sample test questions pertaining to the specific content reviewed are included at the end of each section. Test questions are classified according to the ANCC problem areas, the Academy domains, and across the lifespan, which allows students to focus their study efforts on those items causing the most difficulty.- All content areas on the FNP certification examinations are covered including common complaints, client wellness, the nurse-client relationship, and current issues.
- There are over 1,700 questions in the text including a sample exam
- 850 additional questions are on the companion CD that is bound in the back of the text (300 review questions and 2 sample exams
- Both American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) and American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) test domains are addressed.
- Content is organized alphabetically by disorder/condition for easy access of information.
- Content review in an outline format is followed by review questions and answers with rationales.
- Each question is classified by clinical process to enable the reader to evaluate strengths and weaknesses and to focus review time where necessary.
- The most commonly prescribed drugs and dosages are included for illness states.
- Updated and expanded content covers all major areas including expanded content on the acute management of MI and CVA to address the FNPs function in urgent care settings.
- Expanded content within the diagnostic test section reflects positive and negative results.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Very helpful for passing boards
I studied this review book from front cover to back cover. I used the CD that came with the review book and it was very helpful to practice the test questions. I also studied with the Margaret Fitzgerald review book and found that it was not as well organized as this Pamela Stinson Kidd book. I passed my boards on the first try. Study hard, be prepared and good luck!
Rating:  - Family Nurse Practitioner Certification Review
The book arrived in a timely manner in excellent condition! I was very impressed with the expedient service. My previous purchase was frustrating, but I decided to give you guys one more chance and I was pleased with the outcome. A lot of good information to use in the clinical setting and as preparation for certification boards. Thanks!
Rating: - A good resource
I used this book to study for the ANCC FNP certification exam (and passed). I found the book to be helpful in studying. Each chapter/section is concise and the review questions are helpful. I would have liked the topics organized by body systems instead of alphabetically. This book will be helpful in clinical practice as well.
Rating:  - didn't match the content of the AANP exam
I spent weeks studying from this book and taking all the practice tests. However, when I took the exam today I was surprised that the content of the exam was not adequately covered in this review manual! I feel like much of the time that I put in was wasted since I was focusing on the wrong material.
Another oddity is that the book is primarily organized alphabetically. Each individual chapter is clear and well-organized. However, organizing the chapters alphabetically instead of ... Read More
Rating: - Tons of questions- great for review
We all learn differently, and I liked this set-up. There were tons of questions and my CD worked well. I especially thought the practice tests were helpful and prepared me for sitting in front of a computer screen for a few hours. I passed the FNP boards without a problem!
