CEN 2017! Petrified to fail!

what has worked for you? Taking the CEN in one week and I am so nervous. I have primarily used [COLOR=#000080]Lippincott's Q&A Certification Review: Emergency Nursing, Second Edition for studying based on its awesome reviews on Amazon.

If you have any tips or love to share to reassure me in this last week of figuring out how to pass, that would be great. One year ED exp, but no trauma.

Hoping for some positive vibes and some last minute advice :(

Thanks[/COLOR]

    I responded in your other post too — the BCEN practice exam will probably give you a good idea of where you stand: CEN Prep Exam – BCEN

    I'm sure you have already taken it, but for those who haven't, the ENA book with 5 practice tests inside + 2 online tests helped me the most. I did the tests, read the rationales for the questions I got wrong, and then brushed up on the topic in the ENA study guide and/or the book Pass CEN (I found Pass CEN to be a little more helpful). My initial scores ranged from 65-76. When I restudied and took some of the tests again, my scores ranged from 81-90. I passed the CEN with an 83.

    Honestly I found that it's very important to UNDERSTAND body processes as opposed to just sheer memorization, which is impossible given the content that could be covered on the exam.

    Also, the CEN lectures on YouTube from Mark Boswell helped me a lot, I listened to them while I was in the car, it's a nice review of important topics the exam will touch on.
