Goes beyond memorization with a Socratic-style content review to promote critical thinking

This innovative CNRN review book for nurses preparing for the Certified Neuroscience Registered Nurse (CNRN) exam mirrors the test-format blueprint, focusing on the specific subject matter on the exam. It is carefully calibrated to provide an effective balance of clinical judgment-enhancing content review in the form of unfolding questions, answers, rationales, and hints to enhance the critical reasoning process. Following the review chapters, a practice exam of 220 randomized CNRN practice questions can be taken to simulate the actual certification exam.

This “Think in Questions” content review is designed to help readers anticipate the kind of questions that will be asked and promote critical thinking throughout the exam. Topical “bite-size” sections and plentiful tables and charts facilitate easier learning and memorization. An introductory chapter includes sections devoted to test-taking skills and practices, specific guidance for taking the CNRN exam, and an exploration of the journey towards certification.

Key Features:
  • Familiarizes the world of certifications
  • Explicates the CNRN exam
  • Defines proven test-taking skills and preparations
  • Mirrors exam content blueprint
  • A total of 450 exam-style Q&As with rationales
  • Publisher: Springer Publishing


Springer Publishing Company recognizes that the Certified Neuroscience Registered Nurse (CNRN) exam is a registered service mark of the American Board of Neuroscience Nursing (ABNN). and has applied this service mark to the first mention of the exam in each of the chapters in this book and on its cover.

Passed the exam on my first try! This book is really nicely organized. I used another CNRN review book which I thought was NOT useful at all compared to this book! Most questions I recalled from taking the exam were covered in this book. Highly recommended!

3.0 out of 5 stars Well organized information - worthless test
Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2020

The information is clear and well organized - overall a great summary of what you'll need to know for CNRN.

However, I can't fathom why the practice test includes the answers (in bold nonetheless) immediately following each question.

I tried to use a piece of paper to block the screen so I could read the question without seeing the answer, but there's not even a space between the last option and the correct answer, rendering the test worthless.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good content, but lots of errors
Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2021
Verified Purchase
I bought this to help build my knowledge base for work in a neurosurg ICU and to prep for the CNRN exam. For both, it has been satisfactory though there is little information in the text specific to critical care. The editing in this book is pretty bad- there are loads of grammatical errors, and the excessive use of acronyms makes the reading frustratingly slow at times. For the most part, the grammatical errors are not too much to take away from the meaning, but there are times when it is difficult to decipher what the author intended. Finally, the figures and charts are horribly unhelpful- they are poorly labeled, badly illustrated, and aren't well correlated with the written text. I recommend not wasting your time with the chapters on neuroanatomy- find another text for that pursuit. Overall, though, this will likely serve as a decent nursing baseline for the disease processes common to the acute care environment as long as one remembers that this field is advancing rapidly and some topics are quickly out of date.

This book states it has online content included with purchase. When the code did not work, I reached out to their customer service. They required so many hoops to be jumped through it was not worth the time it would have taken to supply them with all the information requested.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Par Study Guide
Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2022
This review is an adequate aide for preparing for the CNRN. It is recommended by the American Association of Neuroscience Nurses if you attend their webinar in preparation for the CNRN exam. That being said, the book is unorganized in that it is organized in a way that it discusses the diagnosis of one disease, and then jumps to another disease. You then move to interventions and the book again discusses interventions for one disorder before jumping to another disorder. For me, it would have been helpful if the book was organized by disorder, e.g., discussing how Myasthenia Gravis presents, is diagnosed, complications monitored, and ultimately treatment. Instead, you bounce from the diagnosis of Myasthenia Gravis straight into a discussion on Multiple Sclerosis.

The book is poorly edited and as other reviews mention, there are typos, excessive use of not “regionally” defined acronyms and a limited understanding of the hard sciences. For example, at one point, the book refers to glucose as an “electrolyte”, which is factually not true. Perhaps a misconception because glucose is a relevant solute that is similarly measured on a basic metabolic panel. I consider the book to be rooted in “nursing science” rather than a true understanding of biochemistry.

Another area of disorganization was with the post-chapter tests and the practice exam. The answers don’t appear immediately after these respective sections. Instead, they are in the very back of the book, and this results in excessive flipping of pages when reviewing answers/rationales for both the post-chapter tests and practice exam.

Overall, I found the questions to be more useful than the content within the chapters.
