I have been a nurse for 7 years, an ICU nurse for 5, of which the last 2 have been as a float ICU nurse in a large level 1 working in neuroICU, MICU, SICU, burn/trauma ICU). I have not worked in the cardiacICU and this would definitely be my weakest area. I took the Laura Gasparis CCRN review course in April but just can not carve out the time to do much more studying. I have a 2 year old and another due in September, so I am feeling like I MUST get the test over with ASAP. Historically, I have always been an excellent test taker, BUT I have been out of school for 7+years. I would like to take the test in mid August (before my due date of Sept 5) My question is this...anyone out there pass the test without much studying? Will the review class and my experience prepare me to pass the test?? **I can't figure out how to edit my below poll...it is suppose to say "additional studying" at the end not "additional testing".
