“As I prepared to study for the NE-BC exam, my plan had been to use the exam break down and reference list from ANCC to create my own study guide. Yes, a very lofty goal! As I sat and pondered how I was going to tackle gathering all of the information, I decided that there was probably something out there to help me prepare. I did an internet search and found BoardCerts. After investigating and reading reviews, I decided BoardCerts was the best choice for me. BoardCerts provided questions for each of the categories covered on the NE-BC exam and also practice tests that compiled random questions from each of the categories. I appreciated the structured learning plan. I also liked seeing areas where I did well, and areas where I needed to learn more. It was easy to use and I actually looked forward to studying each night. My original plan had been to study for about 5 months and take the exam month 6. With the help of BoardCert, and my structured daily study plan, I was prepared to take the exam after about 8 weeks. Walking into the exam, although a nervous wreck, I felt prepared. I walked out a nervous wreck until I got in my car, checked my email, and found a "Congratulations, you passed!" waiting for me! BoardCert was definitely part of my success. I would recommend BoardCert as a study resource when preparing to take the NE-BC.”

"Boardcerts helped identify areas that I needed to focus on and areas that I didn't need to spend as much time on studying. It was easy to use and helped me pass the exam on the first try!"
Amy Schaar
RN, CEN
"I found this platform incredibly helpful. The bookmark feature, hints during practice tests, and well-structured flashcards make studying much more effective and less stressful. It’s especially great for managing test anxiety, as it guides you to think through questions clearly. I only wish I had this when preparing for my CEN exam. I would definitely recommend it to other nurses pursuing board certifications. "
