Recommended Study Links
As you prepare for the PANCE (PA National Certifying Exam), you may want to consider the following options to direct your study and enhance your test taking abilities.
1. NCCPA Self Assessment- $35 (retired questions from past PANCE exams). Accessible from the www.nccpa.net
NCCPA offers the Self Assessments to assist PAs in the preparation for
Initial Certification or Recertification. The Self Assessments are
designed for PAs who want to gain a better understanding of the kinds
of questions to expect on NCCPA's PANCE and PANRE examinations and to
direct their exam preparation efforts.
NOTE: You must log in to complete a practice exam.
2. Kaplan PANCE Prep – $109 (1 month access) - $149 (2 months access) - $189 (3 months access) 1200 question database, rationale for correct/incorrect answers provided.
Good for both the PANCE and the
PANRE, the PANCE/PANRE Qbank provides over 1,200
exam-relevant practice questions with detailed explanations that
discuss why the right answer is correct, but also why all of the
distracters are incorrect. Create
customized practice tests with immediate feedback by timed conditions
or tutorial style; unused questions, incorrect or all available; and
organ system and task, or a combination of both. Tests can be broken
into 90 question blocks.
NOTE: This product is not provided by Duke. There is a monthly fee involved.
**Both have been used by a number of students in past classes, who have found the databases quite useful.
If you scored below the national mean in the PACKRAT exam (fewer than 137.5 items correct), using a study aide will be particularly important for you. Although a PANCE prep course is part of Senior Seminar, some students need to pursue an augmented study plan before taking the PANCE. Now is a good time to start. Please contact your advisor for any particular questions you have about your possible need for an augmented study plan.
FREE Option From Duke!

the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) and a number of
medical boards. There are three PANCE tests with thousands of questions!
