  3. I Passed!!!

    I was not aware of any preparatorys course for the CRNE in my region (Ottawa) so I never thought about it. The question format on the exam is very close to that of the CRNE prep guide. If you study the format of the CRNE questions on the prep guid...
  4. I Passed!!!

    Hi there, Use the CRNE to familiarize yourself with the types of questions that will be asked. But also try to either have your textbooks or another resource (such as Saunders Comprehensive Review for NCLEX_RN) to supplement with in case you need to...
  5. I Passed!!!

    Hi there, Sorry about that. I guess I wasn't specific at all was I? The complete name is Saunders Comprehensive Review for NCLEX-RN. You can buy it on Amazon for about $50. I know it's expensive but it's not only a good resource for the exam, it...
  6. I Passed!!!

    hey there, I guess everyone is different when it comes to studying but for me, I feel the need to understand everything. I can't just settle for memorizing. I did a lot of supplemental reading on subjects I didn't feel I had a good understanding of...
  7. I Passed!!!

    Hi again. Well my approach was a little different. I personally thought the CRNE was gonna be more technical. It turned out to be A Lot more community health questions than technical nurse based questions (NCLEX (U.S.) was more technical: disease ...

  10. I Passed!!!

    I am asumming you mean the NCLEX. No it does not mean that you failed. My sister's shut off at 75 she felt the same way and she passed. I on the other hand got ALL 265 questions, was sure I would have to take it again, but I also passed. It varied fo...

  13. Taking CRNE Wednesday!

    So I felt exactly like I felt after walking out from taking the NCLEX three years ago. I FAILED. But I passed the NCLEX the first time and if God wills it I will pass this one as well. If I don't well the worst that will happen is that I will have...
  14. Taking CRNE Wednesday!

    Just curious, how do you view your relationship between nurses and doctors in your unit? Do they value nurse input?
  15. Taking CRNE Wednesday!

    I think all nursing exams are like that. But if I have to take it again, I will take it again. By the way, where do you practice? I am a NICU nurse too!!! I worked at Texas Children's Hospital before moving to Canada. If I have my way, I would l...
