    I also took it twice. I used the review book and the e-course. A friend had lent me he study cards (actually a book), I did not find it that helpful, but I would use anyway because you just never know!. The second time I had set a much better study schedule for myself. I have been a school nurse for 17 years, but you need to keep in mind the test is based on the way things "should be". I started reviewing 3 months prior, maybe 3 times a week. Then 2 months prior I began reviewing 5 days a week for about an hour and a half to two hours a night. then the tree weeks prior I reviewed every night for the same amount of time. I purchased the review tests and reviewed them over and over. You can take them as many times as you want. I also reviewed the end of chapter quizzes over and over. I hope this helps and wish you all the best.
