If you are studying for the PANCE or the PANRE I recommend thesereview books I love your site and think that it is the most enjoyable studying resource that I have use so far. David PA-S Just took and passed the PANCE!! I breezed through the test and scored well. Your course was a huge help in preparing. Both knowledge and test-taking skills. I would highly recommend this to others. Karen Hendricks PA-C I just took my NCCPA PANRE test four weeks ago and PASSED! So just a quick thank you for developing such a complete and user friendly NCCPA PANCE and PANRE preparation program. As a Physician Assistant family man, and between work and daily responsibilities there is not much time to prep for the NCCPA exam, however this program was all I needed to help me succeed on my test. I would definitely endorse this program to any PA who needs to prepare for their upcoming NCCPA boards. Keep up the good work! David Aponte, PA-C Good morning. I purchased a three-month trial of SMARTYPANCE with the hopes of using it as an adjunct to other study materials that I had purchased. Almost immediately, I ditched everything else and used your website exclusively. I work full time and I have two little ones at home, so just like everyone else, it was hard for me to manage my time. My certification is ending this year and I timed it so that if I didn’t pass, I’d have another opportunity to re-take it in December if I failed. I just found out this morning that I passed my PANRE! I studied for one {stressful} month, and though I wouldn’t advise cramming everything in such a short period of time, your website really helped me so much. Thank you for putting all of this content out there for us. You are amazing! Jenssen Parungao, PA-C Just want to say- Thank you for your website.   I just passed the recert and it was thank to your recommendations of review material. KennyPA-C Stephen, I want to thank you for creating the Podcast and of course the academy website. I just took my Panre for the 2nd time and I passed. I cant thank you enough for your creativity, humor, and innovation when creating such great tools for all of us. I have been a PA for 13 years and I was so worried about the PANRE given that now I have 2 small kids, have a coaching business, and work full time as a PA as well. I listened to your podcasts daily for 3 months. I did your tests on the academy and I am so grateful for how refreshing your programs are. If you ever need a testimonial somewhere else please contact me. Of course I will recommend your program to everyone. Big hug and big thanks from a happy fellow PA. Sincerely, gina Gina, PA-C Thanks for creating the PA life. It has been a great resource for me as I review for my PANRE.   I am recommending the website to my PA staff. Cheriee Slobodsky, MPH, PA-C This is my 4th PANRE, I graduated 25 yrs. ago as a surgeon assistant and physician assistant.   I have spent the last 20 years on a H+P service and I started my medical career as a USMC corpsman.   The USMC uses the accolade OUTSTANDING, your entire program is such , the attention to details to the answers, the 230 plus pages on  PDF, the flash cards, your program built my confidence BIG TIME, Jesus has richly blessed my life BECAUSE of you , I never have to take this brutal exam again and can retire at 66 yrs old you played a prodigious part in me passing amen!!!
