The real PCCN (Adult) Progressive Care Nursing Certification Exam has 150 questions and a 180-minute time limit. Question types: Multiple choice. Each practice test here uses the same question formats, so you get used to how PCCN questions are asked before test day.
The tests draw on every PCCN content area, weighted like the official outline:
- Cardiovascular (about 20% of the exam)
- Respiratory (about 14% of the exam)
- Endocrine/Hematology/Immunology/Oncology/Neurology/Gastrointestinal/Renal (about 27% of the exam)

- Advocacy/Caring Practices/Response to Diversity/Facilitation of Learning (about 11% of the exam)
- Collaboration/Systems Thinking/Clinical Inquiry (about 9% 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.
