The same Precision board-review system we teach inside PA programs, delivered through your CME4Life LMS. 50+ hours of video, the Precision 5.0 Study Guide, 800+ practice questions, and a 139-question readiness exam — study on your schedule, backed by our 100% Pass Guarantee.
The PANCE question bank holds roughly 1,800 questions. The night before a student’s exam, an algorithm draws 300 — 276 graded, 24 beta. When students fail, they get a printout of about 40 topic types they missed.
We’ve collected that data for 10 years. Every single item in the Precision 5.0 Study Guide comes from a question students actually missed — nothing generic. Learn it thoroughly and scores consistently climb 100+ points. PAs who failed two, three, even six times have used this system and passed.
| Step | Question to answer | Clinical component |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Pathophysiology? | Basic scientific concepts |
| 2 | How do they present? | Think like a test writer — presentation patterns |
| 3 | How do we diagnose? | History, physical exam, diagnostic tests |
| 4 | How do we treat? | PMI — patient education, medications, interventions |
Students learn to think through every disease the same way the NCCPA structures its questions — so they can approach anything the exam throws at them, not just recall a fact.
Choose any package and the complete on-demand board review is waiting in your CME4Life LMS. Silver and Platinum simply add live and one-on-one support on top of the same core.
Start here: orientation, the 206 Precision Gems (topics students miss most), the Precision 5.0 Study Guide, John’s strategy video, the Most Likely Diagnosis guide, mnemonics, and Quizlet flashcards.
One body system per week, in sequence: watch the video, work the slides, then the study-guide section, then take the Precision test. 800+ practice questions across all 10 systems.
17 short mnemonic videos (1–5 min each) — focused memory tools for the highest-yield, hardest-to-retain PANCE content. Work them in alongside the weekly content.
A free ticket to the live Active Engagement Learning® review (in-person or virtual), including POP: Psychology of a PANCE Writer with Tina Butler and the 190-question Critical Content Exam.

John has taught PA board review for over 20 years and helped more than 32,000 clinicians pass the PANCE and PANRE. He’s a Guinness World Record holder for the longest medical lecture, a ForbesBooks author, and the leader of an Inc. 5000–recognized, veteran-owned company.
Labeled a “difficult learner” as a kid, John joined the Marine Corps and deployed to Operation Desert Storm, where his job was identifying armored vehicles in split seconds. That experience — pattern recognition under pressure — shaped how he understands learning, and later became the foundation of Active Engagement Learning®.
I passed the PANCE the second time with John’s videos and the Precision as my only study resources. I increased my score by 140 points — 1000% recommend!
✓ +140 pointsI highly encourage any PA getting ready to take the PANRE to use CME4Life. John makes things incredibly easy to recall.
After failing the PANCE twice, John gave me hope and the guidance I needed to finally succeed.
