HELP!! IL School Nurse Certification Exam

Hi all!

I'm a school nurse working to get my PEL-CSN. I just finished the program and have taken the test twice and failed twice. To me, this exam is way harder than the NCLEX which I passed first try in 75 questions. Before anyone lectures me I just wanna say that I didn't pay the most attention during the didactic portion of the program, I do not respond well to online learning so hardly any deep information clicked. So now that it's exam time, I am really struggling and don't know what to do. I noticed the second time I took the test that the majority of questions were the same as when I initially took it, so I know I need to focus more on disabilities and development but don't know what sources to use for studying. I did great on all the practice exams but these questions were so vague and all answers seemed correct. Any advice anyone? Can anyone help if they remember the questions? 
 

much appreciated

Good evening, hope all is well. There is a mometrix test preparation book that may help you! Trust me I feel your pain. The questions are scenario based, which makes it a tab bit harder to grasp. I'm so sorry you have to experience this.
