On a scale of 0-10, 0 not being hard at all to 10 being extremely hard, how difficult would you say the test is?

How long did you take to prepare for the test? What did you find to be the best study materials?

Hi! So I tried to send you a direct message but it wouldn't let me, so I'm really sorry to reply to this new thread you made. I saw an old thread from you applying to UF for RN-BSN and I am applying now. I was wondering if you could help me out a little? If so could you please private message me! I would greatly appreciate it.

I rate it 5/10. I studied for 5 months using the online study videos I bought on the AACN website, a book with a full practice test, and I used an app with PCCN practice questions. It is by pocket prep.

It wasn’t too bad. I primarily used the pocket prep app. I also watched the AACN online videos, but I didn’t think they were very helpful. I also used the You Can Do It! Study guide for the PCCN. It was well organized, concise and useful, especially for the stuff I didn’t have much experience with at work.
