A couple of my tutees (that's a funny word... I know) are nearing their PANCE exam dates. We've been discussing the best way to approach last-minute prep and I figured it would be helpful for me share the same info with you all as well. When you plan your PANCE study schedule, I recommend leaving 3-5 days before your exam date open. When I say "open" I mean not dedicated to a specific topic or organ system. I suggest using this time to take comprehensive practice exams to jog your memory and increase your mental endurance.

Sometimes I think preparing to study is more complicated than the studying itself. If you need some assistance in planning your schedule or are interested in individual tutoring sessions, feel free to reach out to me! I’d love to offer you more individualized PANCE prep help.
Those of you who have been there and done that, how did you change up your studying habits in the week leading up to the PANCE?
