68% is not bad. You will improve each time you take the Pass CCRN test. My last PASS CCRN exam I got 87% (day before actual exam), I took the real exam the following morning and got the same score. It's pretty accurate. :) Keep working on those q...

in the ccrn test, are we allowed to go back to a previously answered question or is it locked the moment you hit next question?

Good luck on your exam Hazvirehwi. Don't forget to do your mental aerobics of 150 questions everyday until the night of the exam. I will be praying for you! We can do this!!!! :) Keep us posted!

Thank you!! I thought so too. I know that thrombus originating from the right side causes pulmonary embolism (upper leg/thigh/near the pelvic area being the most common), and anything on the Left side of the heart causes systemic - arterial, cerebr...

This big hospital in california is offering a versant rn residency for new grads to fill different critical care units/MS units. Do you think it will be extremely difficult to work in a critical care unit considering the lack of experience? Any ne...

Thanks for the response. I am actually considering it only because they have a very nice training program for 20 weeks (5 mos). They have one-on-one preceptorships, didactics etc. I think it is a very good opportunity for me but it scares me a ...
