CCRN Adult Pocket Prep

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.

Good questions. Good rationales.

This app was a waste of money in my opinion. Looking over Barton’s and getting the question back from PASS CCRN has by far helped me out the most with my studying. The questions that are asked in this app are asking things that wouldn’t be part of a certain exam

I used this app in addition to the Barron’s CCRN book and the Pass CCRN book’s online question bank and passed the CCRN on the first try. The questions in the app were very similar to the questions on the test.

This app is a good test taking strategy practice plus it gives you unconventional questions. However, some of the answers are inconsistent with AACN’s sources (i.e. AACN Essentials of Critical Care Nursing by. Suzanne Burns & Sarah Delgado). One of the question was with regards to the gold standard imaging approach for PE, the app says that it is pulmonary angiogram l, whereas in the book, it clearly states that it has already been replaced with CTPA as the new gold standard as it is minimally invasive and still has a high sensitivity to PE. So bottomline, good practice but know your sources.

Overall this app was very helpful. Some of the questions and explanations were misspelled, but you could still understand what it was asking. The daily question with the ability to set reminders to study were helpful. It was also nice to sort through topics and make your own quiz depending on what you wanted to practice. I used this app along with the AACN study guide questions and I passed the adult CCRN exam. No glitches while using the app.

App no longer supported, links to another app. Remove from App Store

I wanted to buy the ultimate plan but the links are broken and it won’t let me.

This is a nice app which I used for many hours studying. After taking the test, I was able to realize that the question format on this app is pretty different than the actual test. This app is good for instilling and teaching the basics needed for the test. However I also purchased the AACN practice test and it was significantly more similar to the actual exam. Overall I would use this app in conjunction to other methods. It is nice having a desktop option as well as the mobile.

Great tool
