About this ebook

You have a PANCE date. Hold it. Between now and then: 846 questions with every option explained, two 300-item practice exams, a 14-day plan that walks one organ system a day. No login, no expiry.

We built this the way PA faculty run a board review, not the way a shelf gets filled. The NCCPA scores the PANCE on two axes at once. Fourteen organ systems run down one side, eight task areas across the other, and every item sits in a cell of that grid. Three hundred items, five blocks of sixty questions, an hour a block. The fact you revised is only half of what the exam asks for. So you get one system an evening, and every quiz drills the task mix. Check us against NCCPA's published blueprint. We would rather you did.

What's inside

846 original questions, every option explained. The wrong options too. Each item is written at provider level: the working diagnosis, the first-line management, and the finding you cannot afford to miss.

A 40-question diagnostic before Day 1, so a fortnight of study lands on the systems costing you points, not the ones you enjoy.

One organ system an evening, all fourteen of them, cardiovascular through hematologic. The eight task areas run through every quiz instead of sitting in a chapter of their own.

Two practice exams at 300 items, sat in five blocks of sixty like test day. Stamina and pacing become known quantities before you walk in.

Two cumulative reviews interleave the days behind you, one after Day 7 and one after Day 14. Week one is still with you in week two.

A reference-card section of one-look tables: drug classes, danger values, workup steps, every abbreviation spelled out. We dissect one worked answer in full before you begin. Maybe the last book you opened was a thousand pages of facts with a question bank bolted on. Give this one three evenings. If the diagnostic does not change where your fortnight goes, put it down. One evening, and you know.

Three readers will recognize themselves. Someone in the last term of a PA program. Someone retaking the PANCE after a result that did not go their way. A new graduate who wants one book on a schedule instead of a pile of notes. If you already work in emergency medicine, start at Day 3.

Day 10 is psychiatry and behavioral science, and it sits oddly among the organ systems. You'll notice it turning up inside the other thirteen anyway. Downloaded once, yours to keep.

About the author

Passmark builds one kind of book: the one that makes your study hours count. We start from a simple conviction — a certification exam is a skills test, not a memory test — so we never hand you a wall of facts to reread. Our method comes from the science of how memory actually holds: you learn by retrieving, not rereading; you revisit on a widening schedule so it sticks; every answer is explained, right and wrong, so you keep the reasoning; and a diagnostic points your hours where they will move your score. We read each exam's current blueprint ourselves, write every question from scratch, and check every number in the book — question counts, domain weights, practice tests — against the finished pages, not the marketing. When an exam changes, our books change with it.
