CDCES Question Bank

“Hi, my name is Megan. I'm a registered nurse and I'm a newly minted CDCES— that's a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist— and I can thank my passing score largely in part to BoardCerts. I found them really helpful during my study journey. A lot of really cool features on their website, the first being their simulation exam. So I took one simulation exam at the very beginning to just really get a baseline of knowledge that I was comfortable with and knowledge that I wasn't. So after taking that initial exam, I then referenced the question bank within the BoardCerts platform and was able to select topics that I was not comfortable with, so that I could get more exposure to said topics and really hone in my knowledge to then pass the exam. I really liked that you could turn on either tutor mode or exam mode. I really liked the tutor mode personally because it allowed me to get real-time feedback after answering each individual question, and it was also really cool that it had AI technology looped into it as well to then break down what you answered incorrectly and how you could study that topic further. I really appreciated the study plan option that BoardCerts recommended to plan out my week and best prepare for the exam. Overall, so thankful that I used BoardCerts, and they offer a lot of information and a lot of tools to help me succeed.”
