    I took my test today and passed!  I used the study book (I printed and had spiral bound at Office Depot) AND the online course.  I also purchased both review exams and the exam edge tests.  I will say the exam felt like a combination of all of them.  Thank you Pat for this study group and to all who contribute to the other materials.  I am so relieved to have this behind me!!

    We do not know who develops questions for Exam Edge, we don't know if they are NCSNs, we don't know if they are even school nurses.

    Answering questions is a great way of preparing for the exam, you just need to make sure that the questions and answers are correct.

     

    NBCSN is trying to expand our practice tests. We invite any NCSN to submit questions which we may use in upcoming practice tests. If you would like to submit some questions you can send them to nbcsnexec@nbcsn.org.

     

    The questions must have a stem (the question or statement)

    3 distractors (incorrect answers)

    1 correct answer

    The reference for the correct answer

    A rationale as to why it is correct and the distractors incorrect.

     

    Warm regards,

     

    Pat
