This is from SC's DHEC website. The test is administered by Promissor. Promissor administers the test in most if not all of the states. Here is the practice test with answers at the end. Good luck to all future CNA test takers!

This is awesome thanks so much Jay!

Would you happen to know how many questions you need to answer correct in order to pass?

When I took the test, it was 70 questions. They told us that the first 10 questions that you miss do not count. So, that makes it a 60 questions test. Now, out of those 60 questions, you only need a 40% to pass. So, that would mean out of the 70 questions test, you only need to get 24 questions right out of 70 in order to pass.

Personally, I think that is ridiculous. I mean, where in the world is scoring 24 questions right out of 70 a passing grade? Anyway, it may have changed, although I doubt it. The skills test is the harder part anyways. However, if you practice your skills and go in prepared then you will have no problems passing. Good luck to you. Here is promissor's cna test taking handbook for those taking the South Carolina exam. I doubt it is much different in other states. It also list the skills and those things in bold MUST be done in order to get a satisfactory on that skill. It also has some helpful tips for getting prepared for the test.

Sincerely,

Jay

Thanks Jay,

I totally agree, I just took that practice exam and missed 1 of the questions. I think those questions are fairly straight forward and suitable for the CNA exam. I am quite surprised at the passing grade. I would be weary of those who are passing it with a grade of 24/70. Should that be considered "ready". Kinda scary. I know I haven't taken it yet, however I wouldn't even want myself to pass with that grade if it meant that I didn't really know my stuff.

Thanks so much though!
