Special NBRC coding of topics correspond to every topic covered on the NBRC Detailed Content Outline (DCO) so that students know exactly what to expect on the exams and can easily review each of the areas covered on the DCO.
Recall, Application and Analysis-type questions for the pre-tests are included.
Exam Hints point out commonly tested items to help students determine what to study, how to plan their time, and ways to improve test-taking skills.
Practice Exams on Evolve (3 TM-CE, each 160 questions) will be available in both study (untimed) and exam (timed) modes to provide an additional opportunity to practice and mimic the actual NBRC testing environment in entry- and advanced levels.
