The Adult CCRN is a 150-question exam (125 scored, 25 unscored pilot items) with a 3-hour time limit. Roughly 80% covers clinical judgment and 20% covers professional caring and ethical practice.
The AACN periodically rebalances domain weightings and clinical content. Our book is mapped one-to-one to the current revised test plan — chapter weighting matches the exam blueprint, so you study in the same proportions you will be tested.
AACN requires either 1,750 hours of direct care of acutely/critically ill adult patients in the last 2 years (875 in the most recent year), or 2,000 hours in the last 5 years (144 in the most recent year). Check aacn.org for current eligibility.
