Overall, I am happy with my performance, I studied hard and it paid off! Thanks for everything!
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!!!

Well, I took myself out to lunch & bought myself a purse, necklace, & some earrings before I took the test. I intend to get a Lippincott stethoscope & a name badge with my initials behind my name in the next week or so. Just got back from vacation.

Re: Anyone else studying for CCRN exam?

I went to a work-run review class today - my test is in a week! Luckily, the review reinforced a lot of the studying that I've already done, and I feel like I've prepared ok. I'm getting around 80% on practice questions, so I hope that's good enough.

Great job!! You will do just fine on the exam!! When is your exact date so we can send positive thoughts your way!!
How are you feeling? Remember to not let those 25 non-graded questions rattle you! What are you going to do for yourself as a reward?

Keep in touch, OK? Let us know how you are doing!!

Re: Anyone else studying for CCRN exam?

I was being cagey about the exact day haha! Alright, I'm sitting it Tuesday morning. Going away for the weekend on a roadtrip, so I can't panic too much over the weekend!! Not sure about a reward, but I think if I get this certification, my next goal will be the -CSC attachment. Since work reimburses it and all!
