CPNRE exam Jan-Feb 2021

[RPN568]

Hey everyone, 

I thought I would start a page for anyone writing the CPNRE in Jan-Feb 2021. Please share any advice, tips or things you used that you found really prepared you for the exam! We can also keep each other updated when results are released.

 

Goodluck everyone:)

? yes they did send a report with it..I scored 90. they have stated minimum requirement in each category . 

hey what was the passing score out of 170? 

I did mine last month and passed. If you would like I can send you all 3 of the practice tests I did. They get you accustomed to multiple choice questions. I would also suggest purchasing the CPNRE Predictor Test, that gives a very good example of what to expect on the actual test.

Silent follower here, I took the exam three times and the previous two was failed, I took my last try last February and blessed to pass it. This is what I did. I studied my performance profile, print it out, and concentrate on areas that I am not performing well. Then, I did the following:

1. Narrow your review materials, the lesser, the better.

2. Answer Prep guides 3,4,5. Score yourself, and read the rationale to the items that you were wrong.

3. As you answer prep guides, make your own test-taking strategies. This really helps in elimination, so you can narrow your choices and choose the correct one. For me, it helps, reading nursed together with prep guides.

Make your own test-taking strategies if you encounter this in the question, 

-how will the nurse best respond

-what will the nurse do?

-what will the practical nurse anticipate?

- how will the nurse proceed?

-------etc..

3.if you have time, Read the Mosby book, and answer the questions on every chapter, DO NOT memorize, just familiarize especially laboratory values and normal vital signs. I am working full time and mom full time. I skip the part that I knew already. I only concentrate on the following because these are my weak content areas.

Fundamentals of Nursing, Maternal, and child, Ethico-legal.

 

All the best to everyone. Cheers, new nurses!! you got this.
