Advice on CCRN study materials

Has anyone out there taken the CCRN exam? My goal is to take it in 3 months. I have bought a study workbook from Morrison Media which basically goes through the test outline and explains everything. It doesn't include any sample questions, but I was intending to buy those from the list of materials on the ccrn website.

I want to know, what did you study? How hard was the test? How many times did you have to take it? What do you recommend that I use as a study tool?

Thanks everyone!

Specializes in ICU, nutrition.

The Laura Gasparis CDs were wildly popular around my unit, and the Pass CCRN book by Robin Denison. I actually listened Gasparis on my way to Florida a couple of years ago...really helped keep me awake. I passed my CDs on to my friend Shannon, as I don't need them anymore. I studied for it a few years ago but changed jobs and took the nutrition support clinician certification test instead since that's what I do now.

My friend Cindy takes the CCRN test each time she has to renew instead of going the CEU route. She's passed that test over 10 times.

Thank you! I want to do this but I am very nervous about it. I guess because I don't want to waste $250 and fail it! lol
