Thank you so much. I passed ACLS yesterday without opening the book. I followed your instructions and was so happy because it was actually easy. I will use this again in two years for renewal and have already told my coworkers about this awesome site.. Thank you so much – you’re the best!!
Denise says
This is BY FAR the best site to prepare for ACLS certification/renewal!! I firmly believe that I was able to successfully pass my initial certification because of this site. Thank you for making the learning concise and organized.
This site is a lifesaver! (no pun intended)
Beth Milos says
I am renewing my acls in several weeks. I am also renewing my subscrition on this site . In 2013 with the help of this site I was prepared and well versed. From past experience I always struggled with the written test.
I got above 80 and was overjoyed I didn’t have to receive remedial assist and retake test for the first time ever. I understood material and could assess the scenarios well in mega codes. I went on to retain most knowledge in the OR as we have minimal codes but when we need it we have to make recall immediately. I actually corrected an anesthesia provider on a defib action.
So thanks!!

Hi. I have been a nurse for 10 years in the behavior health. I am now working in the behavior health part of the ED. We must have acls and pals. I haven’t looked at a EKG stripe in 10 years, nor do I know the medications. Would this site help or would you recommend buying one of the in debt books?
Thank you
Jeff with admin. says
The website covers everything that you’ll find in the ACLS provider manual. You should not need any other resource. After using the website, you will be thoroughly prepared to do great and pass ACLS certification.
Kind regards,
Jeff

NORTjackster1 says
This is an excellent review that I utilized 10 days before recertification of ACLS. It worked well to back up the study book and helped me form quick answers during the stations of testing. Some of the questions on the written test were the same I studied in this review.
Thank you very much. I have signed up for 3 months to continue to review to re-enforce my knowledge and cement the learning.

Glenda says
Studying again for the first time in 20+ years and last worked in an ICU almost nine years ago….tried to study from the ACLS book but developed “block”. I saw your site while trying to review the rhythms online and have read amazing reviews from extremely satisfied health providers who have joined here as members….I write in one weeks time and am really stressing.
Jeff with admin. says
Thanks for the comment and feedback. I know that you will do great with certification! Let me know if you have any questions.
Kind regards,
Jeff

Take my test in a couple days. Really nervous since I have not had much time to study. Any suggestions for last minute cramming?
Jeff with admin. says
The study guide page that you posted this question on will help guide you through the site and make the most of your time. Make sure and take the 2010-2015 guidelines practice test.
I do recommend to all of my students that the go through at least everything on the site once. Use the checklist to guide you in your study so that you cover everything. You can find the check list here.

I took my renewal last week after studying exclusively on this site with the ACLS book for reference. It was a treat to have an alternative learning experience with all of your interactive tools and tests. I have been doing this for over 10 years and still find it stressful because I don’t get real experience in my field of nursing, but it is required. I will recommend this site to co-workers as it was to me. A great value and I passed with no problems.
