CCRN EXAM

Let me preface by saying that I took this test over 10 years ago.  I found that years of working in the ICU is enough to have a good understanding of the concepts on the test, however, doing multiple practice tests seem to be a more predictable way of passing the test because it helps you get used to the language used in the questions.  As in most other exams, multiple choice type questions always want the "best answer" option.  I also feel that you have to get "in the mode" of how the Psychosocial/Therapeutic Communication questions are phrased so that you can easily figure out the best answer.  Practice tests are available online to be purchased.  I've worked in units where the manager has a copy for staff to borrow.
