May 12, 20215 yr First things first, Happy School Nurses Day to you all!!!! I hope you are recognized!! Now Imma do a little bragging, seems appropriate on School Nurses Day... I passed the certification exam yesterday!. Took it in March, waited longer for this than my state boards in 1983!!! If you are eligible, I encourage you take on this challenge. The journey is worth it.
May 12, 20215 yr YAY!! I will take it next round. I need to. After this year, it doesn't feel like as big of a climb :).

May 12, 20215 yr Congratulations!! I'm booked to take it on July 9th! The next Online Study Group starts next week, 5/21. I haven't taken a test since 2012 or studied for anything since PEARS in 2015, so I'm nervous, but I have to do it now or I risk being ousted from my district!

I got a lot out of the group on the NASN website, practiced test taking strategies, reviewed NASN position statements, got the review book and did the practice tests. Worth the $$$! Good Luck!

I think one of the most helpful things I did was practice how to read questions. Join the group on the NASN website, get the review book and do the tests. You will get a feel for the exam format (200 ?s)
