I’m your host Sarah Michelle. Now, let’s dive into today’s episode.  \nHey friends, for today's episode I want you to come into it with an open mind and with a willingness to hear me out before you jump to your own conclusions. This episode is definitely one that's important to me for you to hear because it can definitely impact not only your studying process as a whole, but also your actual exam day and how you are feeling walking into your big exam.  \nSo at the core of today's episode here's what I want you to know right from the jump, every single person's exam experience is different. You and your friend who went to the same school so you got the same preparation, studied for boards together, could even get the same version of the exam on the same day at the same testing center at the same time, and still both feel entirely different about how that exam went.  \nAnd I think this is crucial to write a podcast episode about because when you're a student and you're anxious it is so easy to get trapped in what everyone around you is saying about the exams. You're going to hear so many different things like this exam is harder. This exam was easier. I walked in my exam, and I knew nothing. I walked into my exam, and I knew every question, I was out super quick, et cetera.  \nSo with such vastly different experiences out there, then student anxiety jumps up even more. Who do you listen to? And how do you fade out that background noise? And I know it's so hard to do. These are tough skills, but I'm going to walk you through in this episode why this happens in the first place, and what you can do about it moving forward to not get lost in the same trap.  \nI want to start off this episode with a little bit of a story about my first encounter with exam feedback that didn't exactly match up. And also how  \neasy it would have been for me to accept their feedback as the truth and just assume someone who had done it before me knew better than me.  \nSo the very first time I ended up in this trap was actually at my first nurse practitioner clinical rotation. The subject of the big board exam came up one day in between seeing patients. And when it did my preceptor immediately interjected saying that she took ANCC because she knows it to be known to be harder, and therefore more prestigious.  \nI wasn't even at a point yet where board exams had really been discussed during school because it was still so early. And so I started asking lots of questions, I got overwhelmed immediately. What makes ANCC harder? What makes it more prestigious? How does she choose between the two exams? Why are there two exams? I didn't even know that was a thing yet.  \nAnd what she told me is that ANCC asked about a lot of policy and legal content, that she felt it was probably at least half of her exam. But that information was crucial to her role as a nurse practitioner and so it was definitely worth studying and knowing. She also told me that employers prefer that ANCC certification, which is why she deemed it to be more prestigious and more sought after.  \nThese two things right here were my two big initial pieces of misinformation. But I had no one around me to ask, and that really is the problem when it comes to this entire process. How do we find out who to trust and who not? And so that night when I went home I did what I do best when I'm confused and I want to know more, and I started doing my own research.  \nYou would be surprised how many rumors can be easily squashed by even just doing a quick Google search. And here's what I found guys, ANCC, at least at present time only asked 15 nonclinical questions for the FNP exam. AANP can also ask that nonclinical content, also known as professional content.
