chasholloway121 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) I have created a Cardiology Study Guide that exactly follows the PANCE Blueprint of Cardiology Study Disease processes, and Cardio Drugs ... I think it is a great study tool and I am glad to share it with you. Also, It's fine for you to pass it along and share it with anyone that it might help I have tried to post it with this message- unfortunately, it exceeds the attachment size limitation offered by this forum, so I'm unable to attach the document here directly, .. if you will email me, I will be happy to forward it to you. Feel free to email me at chasholloway1211@yahoo.com it's in a WORD document format, and I have reduced the size of the viewing pages ... all you need to do is adjust and increase the "Percentage" viewing size of the document in order to read the pages ... I hope that you find the information helpful. (btw, some people have emailed me and asked me if I am charging for my notes ... definitely not ... I'm just a regular PA. I wrote up some notes, and thought I would share them.) Edited March 24, 2011 by chasholloway121 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasholloway121 Posted April 23, 2011 Author Share Posted April 23, 2011 My humble advice for the PANCE ... Keep in mind that, when you are actually taking the PANCE, it is ok to make the conscious decision to "miss this question' ... make your best guess and then move on. Don't change answers unless you are very sure that you need to. If you absolutely have no clue about an answer, and cannot eliminate any of the possible choices, then decide in advance what your favorite letter is (A,B,C,D, or E) and then use it consistently for those questions for which you are clueless. Statistics show that you will get a higher percentage of them correct if you use the same letter throughout the test - remember, this is only for those questions in which you cannot eliminate one or two answers. Another suggestion is to remember that if you are given a group of answers and you can eliminate one or more choices, and are then guessing between a one or two possibles, go with the longer, more detailed answer. It is usually an indicator that the question writer is trying to make sure that he has covered the answer to include everything that you need on that answer. Remember to answer all questions when you first encounter them, then flag the ones that you want to return to ... that way if find yourself running out of time, at least you have already answered each question behind you. If you absolutely do not know an answer, mark it with your favorite letter, and move on. And don't worry about it again. Remember that the test is scored using some convoluted mathematical equation that gives different levels of gravity and importance to different questions. Wrong answers do not count against you. Correct answers are plugged into the equation and computed to give you a raw score. That raw score is compared to other raw score for that same exam, then plotted on a bell curve. Passing scores are two standard deviations below the mean raw score. You have a lot of room to miss questions. I've heard it said that you can miss one of every three questions and still pass. Most importantly, remember your goal is NOT to ace the test ... your goal is to score 1 (one) more question correctly over the number required to pass the test - just 1 question over! Relax. Don't let yourself get too anxious. Be prepared, well-rested, take some high protein snacks into the exam with you. And utilize all 45 minutes break-time that you are allowed between each one-hour section. Leave the testing center and walk outside for a few minutes. Do not rush through any section. You're going to do fine! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJPATEL Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Hi Thanks so much for the review and the tips. I am looking forward to your pulmonary review notes. Thanks so much once again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasholloway121 Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 Good Morning -- I have had a great number of folks contacting me directly about sending / posting the Pulmonary Review ... I've also been questioned about why I am doing this ... I am still in the process of putting the pulmonology guide together, I have been delayed longer than I had planned - sorry. You are welcome to check back with me in a few weeks. As to why I am doing this - well, I put it together for my own benefit and review. I think that it is essential that I be the best medical provider that I can possibly be. Cardiology is a difficult area of medicine for me. I also believe that we, as medical providers have a professional obligation to share knowledge so that we enhance one another as PA's. I'm hopeful that you may find these guides helpful ...
