    Test Content Outline

    Effective Date: January 10, 2021

    Nurse Executive, Advanced


    Board Certification Examination

    There are 150 questions on this examination. Of these, 125 are scored questions and 25 are pretest
    questions that are not scored. Pretest questions are used to determine how well these questions will
    perform before they are used on the scored portion of the examination. The pretest questions cannot
    be distinguished from those that will be scored, so it is important for a candidate to answer all
    questions. A candidate's score, however, is based solely on the 125 scored questions. Performance on
    pretest questions does not affect a candidate's score.

    This Test Content Outline identifies the areas that are included on the examination. The percentage and
    number of questions in each of the major categories of the scored portion of the examination are also
    shown. Note: The examples in parentheses are not all-inclusive and do not indicate importance.
