I'm currently studying to sit for the CNRN exam Nov, 2006....I saw some reviews spread out over the US....not very likely I can make one of those...anybody know if there's a website or study book (kind of like the NCLEX) that I could use to practice test taking for this exam....so far I haven't found one...I've been studying some of the suggested books on Neurosurgery, ie Neuroscience nursing by Barker, Clinical practice by Hickey...any help would be most appreciated...thanks kat

I have started studying and from what others have said, the recommended textbook is what majority of test takers use. Studying all the neuro-anatomy first, and then all the pathology/conditions is what I have read is the most successful.
Good Luck.

I'm an hour outside of Chicago and too would rather study at home or online.

I'm interested in this too. Anyone know the bestways/tips to study for the test? What are the books, audio, videos best for the review? thanks

The test I just took (11/10/06) seemed practiced-based, common sense stuff. Not much on the lesser know/dealt with disease processes.

** Disclaimer ** Don't take me for fact!!! There is more than 1 version of the test out there!!

---- I won't know the results of my test until after Christmas.

Thanks. One of my friends took the test last year and she said exactly just what you experienced. The test was more focus on common sense in dealing with pts with neurological deficits/rehabs than the disease process itself.
