The real Certified Wound Specialist (CWS) Exam has 150 questions and a 180-minute time limit. Question types: Multiple choice: 150 items, of which 125 are scored and 25 are unscored pretest items placed throughout the exam. The handbook's sample questions are single best answer with four options (A–D). Each practice test here uses the same question formats, so you get used to how CWS questions are asked before test day.
The tests draw on every CWS content area, weighted like the official outline:
- Wound Healing Environment (about 18.4% of the exam)
- Assessment and Diagnosis (about 27.2% of the exam)
- Patient Management (about 24% of the exam)
- Etiological Considerations (about 20.8% of the exam)
- Professional Issues (about 9.6% of the exam)
Use tutor mode to see the explanation after each answer, or timed mode to practise at real exam pace. Every answer comes with an explanation of why it is right and why the other options are wrong.
