A final unfamiliar-question check
Save the Benchmark Exam for later.
Practice Exams reuse randomized combinations from your 1,600-question bank. The fixed 150-question Benchmark Exam uses a separate question set you will not see in regular practice, so it works as a more meaningful checkpoint after you have studied.

Common questions
Know what you are getting.
Are the 20 hours videos or written lessons?
They are written, self-paced lessons, study guides, and case labs. About 20 hours is an estimate for reading and case review at a moderate pace; it is not a video runtime and does not include question practice or exams.
Does 1,600 include the Benchmark Exam?
No. The 1,600 questions form the regular practice bank. The fixed 150-question Benchmark Exam has a separate question set, for 1,750 questions in total.
Can I focus on one domain at a time?
Yes. Follow the lessons for any of the 11 domains, take its Quick or Deep Practice quiz, or use mixed-domain sessions and full-length Practice Exams.
Do all paid plans include the lessons and exams?
Yes. All plans have the same course and practice features. Only the billing period and price differ; each plan renews automatically until canceled.
Is Nurscience affiliated with BCEN?
No. Nurscience is an independent CEN exam-preparation resource. Its practice questions are original and are not official BCEN exam questions.
