I have a feeling I am not gonna pass my RNC exam. I read here from a few people that it's a test you can pass based on experience and since I was gonna take the GRE and my RNC exam pretty close to each other I didn't put much emphasis on studying for the RNC exam. A friend of mine purchased books to study for the test and now I feel dumb for not preparing for it like I should have. I take the test this Tuesday, too late to reschedule :-\. Im just gonna pray! Anyone ever pass without "studying"?

Which test are you taking? They offer the ANCC and AMSN through my employer. So far, we have all passed within a few points of each other. Our work did offer a 16 week study course though and I think that did help. It wasn't geared for the test, but did a system review which was very good. I did study like a dog, as did my co-workers. One didn't study as much as we did. She sort of lightly read her notes. She took the ANCC, though and passed. She said it was pretty easy. The rest of us took the AMSN which is very heavy into systems and disease.

Good luck and let us know how it goes!
