Is there anyone else out there who is currently studying for the CCRN exam and would like to start a thread as perhaps a study and support group? I have just applied for the exam and have not yet set a date, but about in 3 months is when I will be taking it. I would love to be in communication with others in the same boat! I hope there is at least one other nurse out there! Thanks!

I'm re-listening to the Laura Gasparis CCRN review. Does anyone remember the part about a nurse always copying other nurses' charting? Could anyone help me with what section this is in? I can't find it! Thank you!

Tried to purchase Laura Gasparis' DVD set.. is it true that it's $700? Where can I buy these cheaper? Thanks in advance!

WHAT?! Who told you such nonsense? It is about 150 on fleabay or amazon. Best investment ever.

Congrats to all the CCRN. I'm currently studying with PASS CCRN online questions, AACN and LG cd's from 2004. Anyone else use the older CD's for studying? I'm scoring in the mid 60-70's. Scheduled in a few days but thinking I need more time any suggestion?

Recommend you reschedule your test. You are not there yet. Read each question twice, if you know and understand what they are asking, go for each answer until you know the correct one. Do not double guess yourself. Good luck.
