CPNRE JANUARY 2011 TEST TAKER/s

World Canada CRNE

Published

Hi AllNurses :nurse:. I will be writing the CPNRE on January 2011. My study materials are:

-Mosby's Canadian Comprehensive Review of Nursing 2nd Edition and

-The Canadian PN Exam Prep Guide 3rd Edition.

To all test takers for January 2011 (hoping that I am not the only one here), please join and we'll support each other to stay on track and keep on going. To all other members who passed the exam or knowledgeable about the CPNRE, please give some inputs. Badly needed. Thank you.

A prayer to all of us, "Lord God, our Saviour, we are asking for your guidance for the upcoming CPNRE. Help us to comprehend what we are studying and give us wisdom to pass the exam. Please Lord. In Jesus Name, Amen".

Will always keep you posted :)

As I reached the first "review questions" at the end of the chapter of the book (mosby's canadian comprehensive review of nursing ), I wonder if these questions are for CRNE only and not for CPNRE? Am I going to skip the review questions of the book or not??? Because for the fact that there are some difference between the role of a Registered Nurse and Registered Practical Nurse. I am worried that the approach in answering the questions or answers to the questions are for the CRNE and not for the CPNRE. Hope to receive some answers. Thanks

hello winterspice. i want to join you. we have very same situation here obviously because we will be taking same exam. likewise, i am looking for more practice questions w/ rationales for RPN exam. i also bought mosbys and the canadian pn prep guide. about your question, i've thought about that. for me, i think we better use the mosbys as our reference or the nursing knowledge foundation and use the prep guide in practicing rpn-like questions. so i'll skip the mosby's questions.but it's up to u. i;ve read some forums saying that the exam is difficult. some ppl would say, it's easy. but it's better that we prepare ourselves so we're confident.

Thank you Dsaini for this valuable information. This is a great help for those test takers who want an RPN comprehensive course for CPNRE. Good Luck! :)

Hi, I'm also taking the RPN exam in Jan 2011, I think if we read canadian fundamental of nursing also along with the 2 book mentioned by winterspice will be helpfull specially of IEN's.

Hello, from my own perspective I would recommend mastering Canadian PN prep guide 1st, 2nd & 3rd. Understand how the questions are constructed and find the technique the examiners are using in choosing the right answer according to their standard. Of course it is great to have the overall nursing knowledge but lets accept the fact that we will not know everything what is being asked but if we know how to eliminate the wrong answer from the right then there will be better chances of passing. Taking the online predictor test is also a big help. It would be confusing to use NCLEX test for PN exam but if you know the role difference between an RN and RPN then it's fine to use that as well for additional knowledge. In short, learn the art of multiple choice.
