What this is

This is an original practice-question bank written for this site. It is not an official CNA exam, it is not affiliated with any state board of nursing or any testing vendor, and none of the questions are taken from any vendor’s or state’s official test material. Every question here was written for this site, and every correct answer comes with its full explanation, free.

The site counts what you got right and reports it as raw correct counts by topic. It does not produce a pass or fail verdict or a score, because the real exam is scored against a standard set by your state’s vendor on a calibrated item bank this site does not have.

“Nurse aide” is the official term in most states, and it is what appears on the credential. “CNA” is what everyone types. Both mean the same role.

Nothing on this site is to be performed on a real person on the basis of this site. This is exam preparation, not clinical training. Emergency situations follow the facility's protocol and the direction of the nurse in charge.

Common questions

Is this an official CNA exam?
No. This is an original practice bank written for this site. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any state board of nursing, any testing vendor, or any nursing school or training program, and none of the questions are taken from any vendor's or state's official test material.
Are these real CNA exam questions?
No. Every question here was written for this site. Real exam items are controlled test material, and this site does not use them. The questions are original and designed to test the same concepts the real written test covers.
Is the CNA test hard?
Most people pass the written part. The part that fails more people is the skills evaluation — the second half of the exam, on a different day, where you perform a set of nursing-assistant skills in front of a person who scores you. A website cannot rehearse that for you, and this one says so plainly.
Why doesn't this site give me a pass or fail result?
Because the real exam is scored pass or fail against a standard set by your state's testing vendor, on a calibrated item bank this site does not have. This site reports raw correct out of total, per topic, which is exactly as much as an uncalibrated question bank can truthfully tell anyone.
Do I need an account to use this site?
No. There is no account, no email, and no sign-up. You can answer every question on the site and see the correct answer and the full explanation for every item, free.
What do I get for free?
Every question in every topic, in both practice and timed modes; the correct answer and the full explanation for every item; raw correct counts by topic; and a complete account of the skills evaluation. The Skills Brief — how to rehearse a performance exam with a partner — is behind a single optional gate.
What happens to my answers?
Nothing. Your answers stay in your browser and are never transmitted. There is no account, no cookie, and no network request carrying your choices. If you open the Skills Brief, your answers are held in that tab's session storage for the trip out and back, and your browser deletes them when you close the tab.
How is the site funded?
By a single optional gate. The free questions, every explanation, and the account of the skills evaluation are complete on their own; the gate adds the Skills Brief. Nothing you answer is ever sold or shared.
