 Well written, but too much work for a review November 2, 2008
I did like the last chapter on PANCE basics, however the questions in the book were a nightmare. I am sorry, but the questions have more than one answer and it was just too time consuming and painful to study from. Good idea though. Not recommended for PANCE review, in my opinion.
 It's OK, not the BEST book for PANCE review November 1, 2008

This book costs the same as Kaplan PANCE review book, which has 2 PANCE-like exams, each broken down into 6 blocks (simulating the actual exam) with 60 questions each. If your the type that likes to go over questions when it comes to studying, Davis book defiantly lacks enough questions. If you re-certifying, this book is defiantly premature. For the same amount of money, I suggest Kaplan. Just like Davis, Kaplan offers extensive info on the PANCE exam, scoring, and re-certifying exam. I bought both books, as well as AAPA book and found it much more useful. Both, Davis and Kaplan offer money back guarantee in you don't pass the test. I did well on my initial PANCE exam and if it wasn't for going over the Kaplan questions and AAPA book online/CD-ROM question bank, I probably wouldn't have done as well. So I won't recommend this book as a primary.
 Nice way to review a field after retrement September 19, 2008

I bought this for my mom who retired as a nurse years
ago, but is still very interested in the field. She
is using this book to get a concise view of the training
received by PA's that she's encountering more and more
frequently.
She greatly appreciates the survey and question format.

To me it was a helpful addition to studying for the PANCE. I wouldn't recommend it as your only resource but it is definitely a good buy. Some parts are a little redundant, but i guess that could be a good thing when you are studying. I especially liked the format of the book.
Helped me pass the PANCE! September 5, 2008

While my fellow PA students went to high-priced reviews in other cities, I decided to press my luck and study for the PANCE myself. I found this book extremely helpful. While the initial section of multiple answers threw me for a loop, the explanations were fantastic; explaining not only why the right answers were right, but also why the wrong were wrong. I found that to be the most helpful part of all. I was a little disappointed that the CD test questions did not have an explanation, nor refer back to explanations from the multiple answer section as the ones in the 2nd section in the book. The book offers a money-back guarantee if you don't pass, but I didn't need it, so I guess in that way it's true to its word. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone about to take the PANCE and I intend to get an updated copy when I sit for the PANRE 6 years from now.
