My last day of clinical rotations will be February 5, so I will plan to take the PANCE the last week of February/ first week of March. I will give myself 6 full weeks to prepare for the exam, beginning mid-January. Resources I plan on using include PANCE Prep Pearls, Osmosis, and Rosh Review. The following schedule is a tentative plan (knowing some days will change depending what I need to focus more on). On those days, I will review PPP, watch any Osmosis videos on topics I need more clarification on, and answer 100 Rosh Review questions each day. At the end of the week on Saturdays, I will do an additional 100 Rosh Review questions, increase them weekly, and review material that is needed from that week. If there are topics I am weak in, I will rewrite the diagnosis, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and treatment until I fully understand.
