The CCRN Adult Exam does not register an individual as a registered nurse and is usually not a requirement for actually working in a critical care unit. However, it is an indication that an individual has an advanced knowledge of critical-care procedures and allows the individual to use the CCRN letters after his or her licensing credentials. The CCRN Adult Exam consists of 150 multiple-choice questions, 125 of which are scored and 25 that are experimental, that covers information related to the following areas:
