Preparation Checklist – helps guide you as you prepare, from application, to taking a practice test, to scheduling your exam.
CFRN Content Outline – become familiar with the topics on the exam so you are prepared for what to expect.
CFRN Sample Questions – these sample items are presented to demonstrate the format used on a BCEN certification exam and how questions reflect the nursing process. They are not intended to reflect the difficulty of the actual questions on any of our exams.
CFRN Reference List – provides a list of helpful books, websites, and other resources. (The Board of Certification for Emergency Nursing (BCEN®) does not endorse any resources or have a proprietary relationship with any publishing company).
Take the CFRN Practice Exam & Earn CEs – take this at the start to determine your weak areas, and again as your final pretest before the real thing!
What sets our practice exams apart from others?
-
-
- Only our practice exams are created by the same organization designing the actual exams (that’s us).
- We have a committee of nurses and emergency professionals who build our practice exams with the goal of helping you succeed.
- A BCEN practice exam will help you familiarize yourself with the computer-based format of the real exam.
- You will be able to answer questions, then have immediate access to the correct answers, backed up with rationale and references.
- 3 CEs will be awarded upon successful completion of the practice exam.
-
150 practice exam questions are available in two formats:
Timed Exam:
This closely simulates the actual testing environment. Though you can take the practice exam from any location, it will be timed, and you will not have the option to see answers and explanations until the entire exam is completed.
Non-Timed Exam:
This option allows you to go at your own pace and see answer explanations as you go. You also have the option to test in mini quizlets broken down by category to focus on your weak points.
BCEN practice exams are an investment in your future. For one reasonable price, you’ll be able to access the practice exam as many times as you wish within a 90-day period. You’ll also receive one graded report for your reference.
