Thank you for creating this thread. I'm applying to the program too but I'm waiting for one of my recommenders to send in the recommendation letter. Does anyone know a little more about the school and how their application process works? I'm curious about it because they didn't require CCRN as part of the application.

While CCRN is not required, majority of their accepted students, if not all these days, have their CCRN.

That's what they told me when I called them yesterday, thanks!

Does anyone know if the CCRN actual exam is as hard as the Barron's practice test.

Hi Kezie,

I think the hardness of it kinda varies person to person. I thought the test was very difficult because it was vague. But I passed it first try only studying for 4 weeks on my off days and only used the Barrons book and the flash cards. Barrons book also has an online test, I found that to be most helpful.

I just took my CCRN yesterday! I used Barron's and the Ace the CCRN practice questions. I  personally thought the Barron's questions were about the same level of difficulty as the ones I got on the exam. 

I applied, now the waiting begins
