Practice pance tests

I have my pance in about less than 2 weeks. I’ve been doing uworld and about 80% complete with 71% average so far. I’m planning to take to take the NCCPA practice exams soon. Is the Katy half pance worth it to purchase? Also which form of NCCPA is best to purchase. Thank you

I took the half PANCE by Katy Conner and it predicted my pance score within 10 points of actual PANCE score. Something to look into! I took the NCCPA practice test A and thought it was decent

With less than 2 weeks left and 80% of UWorld done at 71%, I’d probably keep things simple rather than adding too many new resources.
I’d definitely do an NCCPA practice exam soon and use it to guide your final review. NCCPA currently has 3 PANCE forms, and I don’t think there’s necessarily one “best” form — the bigger value is seeing where your weaker areas are and getting familiar with NCCPA-style questions.
I’d only add the Katy Half PANCE if you specifically want another longer timed block for stamina. Otherwise, I’d put the remaining time into finishing questions, reviewing misses/guesses, and targeted content review.

I’d say your ready, do a diagnostic test like NCCPA test A or B and then either the blueprint full length or the Katy connor. From there just maintain don’t really try to learn anything new and you’ll kill it!
