If you have questions about this, please leave a comment. If your NP specialty is not FNP, you’ll need to locate your NP specialty on the website of your certifying board of choice. Here is the link for the ANCC FNP board certification exam content outline effective as of. Then I printed it out again when I realized it had changed. Regardless, I printed out the content outline in 2015 and followed it. Right as I was about to graduate (in May 2019) the testing content was updated. Right away I checked the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) website for the examination content outline. Yes, I’m a bit uptight when it comes to being prepared, but I’ve come to accept it. But I knew when I started that I didn’t want to wait to start preparing for the certification test even if it was 4 years away.

I was working full time as a nurse and taking 2 courses per semester. as in during my first semester of NP school. Honestly, the first thing I did was start preparing immediately.

The ANCC FNP exam takes about 4 hours, If you fail the ANCC, you can retest within 60 days but you cannot take the test more than three times in twelve months.

Non-clinical questions include questions on ethics, research, leadership, scope of practice, professional responsibility, and regulatory guidelines. The ANCC exam has clinical assessment, diagnosis, and management questions but also has approximately 25% more non-clinical questions than the AANP exam. I studied and passed the ANCC in June 2019 on my first attempt. Many graduating NPs have asked “What did you do to pass your certification test?”
