Pocket Prep CCRN Adult 2026

Highly recommended. Questions are straight to the point. May not be exactly the same as CCRN, but at half is pretty the same length or format. Great resource just to practice your brain in answering questions.. FAST. Time is definitely your biggest enemy when you’re taking the test. The faster you read the question and understand what it is asking you. The faster you get to eliminate what is not the answer and be left with the right choice. Make sure you take the time to read the question. And doing practice questions even if they won’t be the exact same questions on the test — will still help your brain think fast and make the quickest right choice. That’s the key to passing this nerve wracking CCRN test! And yes, I passed my test at 80%! I also did Barron’s 3 practice exams (2 in the book, 1 online), the AACN 2018 practice exam and I watched Laura Gasparis online videos twice! I did a total of 1500 practice questions and actually reviewed all the questions that I missed and I understand how I missed it. Mostly because I didn’t read the questions correctly. Be careful with those highlighted key words like “except” or “priority”. All the choices seems right except one, so pick the one that is not right. And all the choices are right but pick the one you would do first. Good luck! It was a very hard test. I took it yesterday 28Jul. But it was doable. Practice practice practice!! I also picked up the Certification and Core Review for High Acuity, Progressive and Critical Care Nursing 2018 that has 450 super long super hard questions. I only did the first 75 of the questions and did horribly, like 60% don’t panic, the hardest questions on the CCRN looks exactly like the ones on this book, but not all of them, you probably see about 25 super hard questions but you still have 25% chance of getting them right even if you’re just guessing. The rest of the hundred questions are pretty straight forward — meaning you either know the answer, or you miss read the question. You can easily eliminate the wrong answers or right answers if they are looking for that one wrong answer.

The questions are very in depth, with good rationales, and they site their sources. Some repeated questions but worded differently, not too many though. It’s an easy and effective studying method for when you don’t have much time or you want to study on the go. The questions are WAAAY more complicated and wordier than anything you’ll see on the actual CCRN exam. I skimmed through the Barron’s book, I skimmed through the Ace the CCRN book, and I mostly did practice questions on this app. I suggest purchasing the AACN’s question bank as well in order to get a good understanding of what the actual test questions will look like. I had a lot of questions I wasn’t expecting and I hadn’t study at all for. AACN loves asking about obscure topics. Overall, I give the app 4 stars because it’s cheap and easy, but there’s a lot information you don’t need to know, and the questions don’t resemble the test. It’s good that they’re in depth for studying purposes, but AACN question bank is the way to go if you want to familiarize yourself with the test.

Between this CCRN review app, the AACN’s online review course, Laura Gasparis-Vonfrolio’s DVD’s, and Baron’s CCRN Review book I managed to pass the exam the first time! I love that there are rationales and references to go along with each question! I also like that you can set reminders to do the question of the day and when to study. For those of you who don’t think you have time to do this then you’re wrong!! I’m more than halfway through the FNP program while working full time and still managed to study and take the exam during the winter break, so it’s most definitely doable! Remember... the more knowledgeable one is, the safer are their patients! Good luck everyone!!
