I would say csevideo especially if you are using the fa the 2015 videos are identical to the fa 5th ed and I passed with higher performance using that strategy most of my cases were the same and the room layout is pretty much the same in the video the other thing I liked about the videso is the pe they show you how to do it pretty quick and direct the website lets you type your pn in the same form as the exam gives you anyway your timing in asking is good I am just about to post my experience

Hi mommy1,thanks.did u use uworld?did the xam cases cover FA?
And i found some cases in FA r really complicated and cannot finish in 15 min.is the real xam like this?

 

[mommy1]

to bird I mainly used csevideo for three months and worth every penny and the 5th ed of first aid my exam cases were very much like the videos and the same types of cases like cough dm folow up and same exact pediatric phone cases almost identical in detail. I did try uworld and was not satisfied because I did not find that it was giving me enough information on the whole encounter.

I did use sp my children and husband and practice all the csevideo cases on my own over my childs bunk bed and worked each case out just like the video and when I took the exam I followed the steps and it was much smoother then my first attempt.

any other questions please post here and I will answer to my best
