If you are unsuccessful on the exam, you have one opportunity within one year to retake the examination at a reduced rate. C-NET will mail a re-examination application to those applicants who do not pass.
None of the test questions require any mathematical ability beyond basic arithmetic that would be used daily by any NP. The computers used for the exam have calculators available for use.
The preparation of the test is purposefully designed to be legally defensible and psychometrically sound. The test is kept up-to-date by the CNN-NP item writers to make sure every question is pertinent and current to today’s clinical practice.
