CNA exam coming up? We got you.

- Know it cold? It waits longer, so your time goes to the cards you’re about to lose.
- FSRS under the hood, a modern spaced repetition method. How it works
What the CNA is like.
- Federal rules require a written or oral exam and a skills demonstration, and each state sets its own passing standard. Check your state, since Florida lists a written-only path for recent graduates of approved programs.
- Vendors differ by state. Colorado and North Carolina use Credentia, while Texas and Florida use Prometric.
- Question counts differ by state. Credentia’s NNAAP written exam has 70 multiple choice items, 10 unscored, in Pennsylvania and North Carolina, while Tennessee lists 75 plus 10 unscored and Florida’s Prometric exam has 60.
- The 2024 NNAAP outline weights Basic Nursing Skills at 35 percent and Activities of Daily Living at 22 percent of the exam.

A study plan for the CNA
- Find your state’s nurse aide registry or exam vendor page first, and use its handbook for the vendor, fees, retake rules and passing standard.
- Work through the cards in order, starting with hygiene, dressing and feeding, then infection control and safety.
- Spend the most time on infection control, safety and measurement, since Basic Nursing Skills has the largest share of the NNAAP outline.
- Review resident rights, the definitions of abuse and neglect, and charting together, since they share the same logic of respect and facts.
- Practice the hands-on skills in your training program. Follow your instructor, care plans and facility policy over any flashcard.
CNA exam questions, answered
How many questions are on the CNA exam?
There is no single national number. Credentia’s NNAAP written exam has 70 multiple choice items, 10 of them unscored, in states such as Pennsylvania and North Carolina. Tennessee lists 75 items plus 10 unscored. Florida’s Prometric exam has 60 questions. Check your state’s handbook.
Who gives the CNA exam?
It depends on your state. Federal rules let the state run the exam itself or approve another organization to do it. Colorado and North Carolina name Credentia, and Texas and Florida name Prometric. NCSBN says it no longer develops or owns the NNAAP and sends questions to Credentia.
How much does the CNA exam cost?
Fees depend on your state and vendor, so check your state’s handbook. Federal rules say a nurse aide who is employed by a nursing home that participates in Medicare or Medicaid, or has a job offer from one, on the day they begin the competency evaluation cannot be charged for any part of it.
What score do I need to pass the CNA exam?
The official sources we checked do not publish one national passing score. Federal rules require each state to set its own standard, and they call for both a written or oral exam and a skills demonstration. Check your state, since Florida lists a written-only path for recent graduates of approved programs.
How many times can I retake the CNA exam?
Federal rules give you at least three opportunities, and a state may set a maximum no lower than three. Colorado and Florida both require more training after three failed attempts. Your state’s rule is the one that applies to you.
What topics are on the CNA written exam?
The 2024 NNAAP outline has three areas: Physical Care Skills, including activities of daily living and basic nursing skills; Psychosocial Care Skills; and the Role of the Nurse Aide, including communication, client rights, legal and ethical behavior and teamwork. Exams from other vendors may differ.
