A 300-question pre-test and a 300-question post-test which simulate the NCCPA exams and incorporate the PAEA's GRADRAT self-assessment exam are provided both on a bound-in CD-ROM and online at thePoint. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - MaybeI started my review 3 months ahead of time, read the entire book and took the pretest and scored 71%. Somewhat concerned, I bought the two Appleton and Lang study guides and specifically focused on areas of the pretest I was weakest in. I passed the PANRE with a score of 637/700. If you are in a subspecialty and want a comprehensive review, get all three books. That's around $200. The one thing about this study guide that is useful is the pretest. It will tell you where you need to focus your attention ... Read More Rating:  - PANCE This is all I used to study for the PANCE and it was worth every penny. I read several reviews that were not recommending this book but I strongly disagree. I paid a lot of money and attended a course in Chicago and I actually got more from reading this book. To be honest I read the book before I attended the review and learned nothing new at the review. Save your money on the course and buy this book. Rating: - Just okayThis book is a basic (Very basic) refresher of some of the common diseases you may be tested on. The book does not have any in depth treatment and everything is very vague and general. This is good for the questions and will give you a good idea of what you need to review more thoroughly for the exam. Not a bad book, but not fantastic either. Rating:  - PA review As a new grad, I'm studying for PANCE exam. After reading review i decided to get this book. Many of my classmates got this book a long time ago and told me that this book is really good. Book is nicely outlined, but the only thing that i don't like, is that key words are not HIGHLIGHTED! Vs in previous editions, they were highlighted. CD is also helpful, but many questions where taken from other books and previous editions. Not that many mistakes so far in the book! However, you will definitely need additional ... Read More Rating: - Essential but not exceptionalProbably everyone preparing for the PANCE should get this book. But that doesn't mean I think it's a great book. I think it's valuable because it is the "official" AAPA/PAEA review book, and I think the topics covered and the sample questions probably reflect the exam content well. I bought it mostly for access to the advertised 600 questions (300 in the book and 300 on the CD or online). And that's my biggest complaint about the book: on the cover, it says "Questions are all new to this edition," and that's blatantly ... Read More |
