mpbrooks77 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Hi all, I am in my 5th year of practice and will go ahead and take the PANRE this year. I don't think I'll have the time to go to a review course. What opinions do you have of the CME4Life DVDs or helpzebra? Or would you recommend something else? I currently work in family practice and I'm a visual learner, if that makes a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisephillips Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I have been using the HELP Zebra program for 1 month now and really like it. They reinforce the material well through quiz, video, review, then another different quiz format. Also have LOADS of sample questions to take if you like Q&A format. I have been in practice for 12 years and in Ortho the whole time. I took the CME resources course 6 years ago and did well too. Just would rather do a solid review on my own time. Will sit for PANRE next month, will repost with results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe1968 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I have been advocating how great HELP zebra is, I also used this program and learned so much. The practice exams are also good, took my boards last year and I passed. p.s. The exam I took was the hard version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe1968 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 ok I took my Pance in May 2014 using the Hippopa and studying from Jan-May short time frame which is a mistake, the exam I would say is "fair" not too hard but not too easy, after taking my exam I thought I'd pass, but , it turned out I failed and missed it by I would say 12-15 questions. I wish I'd studied hard but oh well you live and learn. I then got really really serious, I would not recommend the hippopa....ever. after doing some research I stumbled upon HELP zebra, I really like this program, it puts you to work, I studied from June until Jan the following year , I have learned so much that when its time for me to take the Pance which this time was ridiculously hard that I still manage to pass. do some research of thread dated January 2015 , a few of us took the boards during that same time frame and will tell you it was very hard.

adru373 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I think doing a course from home is great! Check out this course the NPAE course, there's a free trial that kind of gives you the idea about what to expect before you buy the full thing. It has podcasts, quizzes, flashcards and a review guide that includes basically just what you need to know. I find that to be the best way to study personally. www.physicianassistantstudyguide.com Good luck to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really enjoyed the help zebra/campus program, will definitely use again to stay fresh for PANRE in 10 yrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
