Question about stna?

So I have a very specific question regarding an stna certification in Ohio. I have been a PCA for 2 years, but the school of nursing I'm applying to requires me to get my stna certification. I was able to send in paperwork to keep me from having to take the classes, but I still have to take both the written and oral tests. Although I do most things already in my job, I am unsure of all the specifics they are looking for when I test. Also, I have no idea what the written test is over since I didn't take the classes. I feel somewhat uneasy about walking in not even knowing what the mock room set up is, etc. Has anyone else taken the test without taking the classes? Maybe someone could give me better insight on what I should be studying?

Thanks!

:)

    I know it isn't what you want to hear, but I would take the classes. There are SO many specifics that they are looking at when testing and they can choose any 4 (it may be 5, I can't remember) out of 20ish skills. They ask you on the spot and you have to be able to do them in a certain order and within a certain timeframe. I would have failed SO quickly of I had not taken the course.

    Something to add too is even if you think you can do everything the correct way you do at work , it more than likely isn't going to be the correct way for the STNA test. Text book vs. real life
