Its obvious that I don't post much on here, but this site has been instrumental in my passing the CPNE this past weekend (June 25-27) at NYHQ with no repeats. A special thanks to Ivan and Lunarn for the notes and also ROBSCPNE. This week I will post a doc about my experience. Again, thanks to all on the site for their insights and help. More to come.
Thanks,
Sbuxdrinkr, GN

i think it was around 6 months.
How to pass the CPNE:
1. Get robs cpne video and e-books
They were well worth the 70 bucks.
2. Read the cpne manual from excelsior and do the critical thinking exercises. It will inform you on the specifics of the exam. I.e. What to document on intake and output
3. Setup a sim lab and practice areas of care and labs
4. Download ivan harts notes from this site. They r very detailed and helpful
That, in a nutshell, is how I passed first time with no repeats.

I know it's been a year since you've passed the cpne, but congrats anyway! I'm scheduled to take the cpne on 12/02/11 and you mention Ivan Harts, but I can't seem to find his notes anywhere. Where should I look?
Thank you so much.

His notes are here: https://allnurses.com/distance-learning-nursing/cpne-notes-ec-308371.html
Just be aware that they are a bit out of date as far as exact correspondence to the current study guide (17th).

Lunah is correct they are dated and will need to be fixed and updated. Please also note..... if you will not be going to clinical until after Nov1 2011.... the 18th edition changes will be kicking in . And there are some major changes
