Hi Carol,
This is my 11th school year as a school nurse but I've been a nurse for 28 years.
I have always worked in a middle school but I'm the lead nurse for our district so I am involved a bit in all age groups. I thought the test was unnecessarily difficult. Some questions I knew right off the bat and those were straightforward. Some questions seemed to be worded intentionally to confuse you. I didn't feel confident at all. I'm glad I took I took the test virtually so I could relax more in my own home rather than stressing out in a testing facility.

I passed yesterday. After the first 30 questions I wasn't feeling too confident. I think I flagged 5 total, but there were at least 15 that I knew I didn't know the answer. To prepare I listened to the lectures, I reviewed the book and bought the 2 practice tests and the Exam Edge tests. I do not recommend the Exam Edge tests, they are WAY more in depth. I meanily used them to practice doing a lot of questions in a row, I hate long tests, so doing their tests helped me prepare in that aspect.

congratulations!! I heard that the test throws in some unweighted questions to see how we do with them, like the NCLEX did. I know I had a question or two where I had no idea either so maybe that's why?
