See plansEvery session feeds the engine — it learns what you miss and rebuilds your next session around it.
Answer questions and the bank quietly rebalances — your weakest clinical domains get more reps, automatically, after every single session.
How adaptive practice works
Daily quizzes, assigned practice sets, and a streak that keeps you honest between clinic shifts.
Three full-length timed mocks with a countdown clock, a question palette, and flagging — the same rhythm as test day.
One readiness score, a week-by-week trend, and per-domain accuracy — so "am I ready?" stops being a feeling.
Highlight inside any explanation and save it as a note. Every note stays linked to the question it came from.
The thresholds, stages, and first-line treatments the exam expects on reflex — tagged by clinical system.
ACC/AHA BP Categories
Normal <120/80; Elevated 120–129 and <80; Stage 1 130–139 or 80–89; Stage 2 140/90 or higher.
CHA₂DS₂-VASc Threshold
Anticoagulate atrial fibrillation at a score of 2+ in men, 3+ in women. Score 0 (men) or 1 (women): no anticoagulation.
GOLD COPD Criterion
Post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC below 0.70 confirms persistent airflow limitation. GOLD grades 1–4 then use FEV1 percent predicted.
Prediabetes Ranges
A1C 5.7–6.4%; fasting glucose 100–125 mg/dL; 2-hour OGTT 140–199 mg/dL.
DKA vs HHS
DKA: glucose >250, pH <7.3, marked ketones, anion-gap acidosis. HHS: glucose >600, pH >7.3, minimal ketones, osmolality >320.
USPSTF 2024 Mammography
Biennial screening mammography from age 40 to 74 for average-risk women — lowered from 50 in the 2024 recommendation.
LFT Patterns
Hepatocellular: AST/ALT rise predominates (hepatitis, NAFLD, toxins). Cholestatic: alkaline phosphatase and bilirubin predominate.
Gout vs Pseudogout Crystals
Gout: needle-shaped urate crystals, negatively birefringent, favors first MTP. Pseudogout: rhomboid CPPD, positively birefringent, favors knee.
Stroke Thrombolysis Window
IV thrombolysis within 4.5 hours of last-known-well, after CT excludes hemorrhage. Thrombectomy for large-vessel occlusion up to 24 hours by imaging.
First-Line for Uncomplicated Cystitis
Nitrofurantoin 100 mg BID x5d, TMP-SMX DS BID x3d (if resistance <20%), or fosfomycin 3 g once. Fluoroquinolones are not first-line.
KDIGO eGFR Stages
G1 ≥90, G2 60–89, G3a 45–59, G3b 30–44, G4 15–29, G5 <15. G1–G2 need a damage marker to count as CKD.
Isotretinoin Safety
Teratogenic: iPLEDGE requires 2 negative pregnancy tests and 2 forms of contraception. Monitor fasting lipids and LFTs.
GAD-7 Severity Bands
5 mild, 10 moderate, 15 severe. A score of 10 or higher warrants further evaluation and likely treatment.
Warfarin Targets & Reversal
Goal INR 2–3 for AF and VTE (2.5–3.5 for mechanical mitral valve). Reverse major bleeding with 4-factor PCC plus IV vitamin K.
Anemia First Step
Read the MCV: microcytic <80, normocytic 80–100, macrocytic >100 — then use the reticulocyte count to split hypo- vs hyper-proliferative.
Active TB Regimen
RIPE (rifampin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide, ethambutol) for 2 months, then rifampin + isoniazid for 4 more. Add B6 with isoniazid.
Sixteen cards from the live deck, lightly compressed to fit the card face. Every card in the product carries the full detail.

Everything you need to know about FNP-C prep.
The system is built for the AANPCB FNP-C exam: the three mocks mirror its 150-question format, and the bank follows the AANPCB blueprint (Assess 32%, Diagnose 26.5%, Plan 26.5%, Evaluate 15%). Because AANPCB testing is essentially all clinical, the same clinical preparation covers the bulk of ANCC’s FNP-BC exam too — but the mock format targets AANP.
The AANPCB FNP exam is 150 multiple-choice questions — 135 scored plus 15 unscored pretest items — with 3 hours of testing time at Prometric centers. Results are reported as pass/fail against a scaled passing standard, with a preliminary result shown at the test center.
AANPCB reported an 81% first-time pass rate for the FNP exam in 2025, across 15,395 initial exams. Roughly 1 in 5 first-time candidates fails — which is why our bank drills the applied clinical judgment the exam actually tests rather than recall alone.
Every question was written to a named guideline and then independently re-verified: a separate reviewer re-derived each answer against current sources — ACC/AHA, ADA Standards of Care, GOLD, GINA, CDC/ACIP, USPSTF, KDIGO, IDSA — and adversarially tried to defend every distractor. Items that were outdated, unsafe, or ambiguous were discarded, not patched.
Starting January 2026, AANPCB allows up to 3 FNP exam attempts per calendar year. Before retesting you must submit a new application with the fee, and AANPCB’s FAQ requires 15 hours of continuing education relevant to your weak areas. Our per-system analytics show you exactly where those weak areas are.
No. PrepSolution is an independent study resource. FNP-C is a certification mark of the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners Certification Board (AANPCB); all exam facts here come from AANPCB’s published candidate handbook and statistics. Educational content — clinician sign-off applies before launch.
The FNP-C Complete Pass System is built as a complete prep path: 1,087 practice questions aligned to the AANPCB 2024 Blueprint blueprint, each with a written rationale, plus 3 full-length mock exams. Every question is written and reviewed by credentialed professionals who hold the FNP-C, and Complete Pass System plans carry the pass guarantee: finish the study plan and mocks, and if you don’t pass, your access is extended free.
Candidates usually weigh PrepSolution against UWorld NP, BoardVitals, APEA. PrepSolution’s approach: every question is written by credentialed FNP-C holders, every answer includes a full rationale, plans are one-time payments rather than subscriptions, and the Complete Pass System includes the pass guarantee. When comparing, check question counts, which formats are included at each price, and access length.

No. Every plan is a one-time payment. You pay once and get access for the full length of the plan you choose — 3, 6, or 12 months. There are no recurring charges, no auto-renewals, and no hidden fees.
If you complete the study plan, take all three mock exams, and don’t pass, we extend your plan free for the same length you bought — a 3-month plan gets 3 more months, a 6-month plan gets 6, a 12-month plan gets 12. This guarantee is included exclusively with the Complete Pass System.
Yes. If you purchase and decide it’s not the right fit within 24 hours, contact support@prepsolution.com and we’ll process a full refund. No questions asked.
No. PrepSolution is an independent exam preparation company. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by SHRM, PMI, AACN, or any certification body. Our content is developed based on publicly available exam blueprints and content outlines.
Many candidates come to PrepSolution after a failed first attempt. The most common reason for failure is approaching judgment-based questions with workplace instinct rather than a systematic framework. Start with a diagnostic mock exam to identify your weakest domains, then follow the targeted study plan.
Many employers cover professional development costs including exam prep materials. After purchase, you’ll receive a receipt that can be submitted for reimbursement. Contact support@prepsolution.com if you need a customized invoice.
