How a class works
Step 1
Make the class
Sign in, pick CEN and name the class. It takes under a minute.
Step 2
Post one link
Put the class link in your LMS, a slide or a group chat. Students join with just the name you know them by.
Step 3
See what to reteach
Open the class page for scores, who practiced, and the topics and questions the class misses most.
What your students practice
The Certified Emergency Nurse (CEN) exam is the Board of Certification for Emergency Nursing's (BCEN) exam for registered nurses in emergency care. It has 175 multiple-choice items, 150 scored and 25 unscored pretest items, with 180 minutes of seat time, taken by computer at a PSI test center or at home by live remote proctoring. Under the content outline in effect from July 2026 the 150 scored items cover eleven areas, led by cardiovascular (18), respiratory (17) and neurological (17) emergencies. A pass needs 99 of the 150 scored items right, a raw count with no curve. After a failed attempt you wait 90 days to retest, and the CEN is renewed every four years.
Tigertest's practice follows The BCEN CEN Examination Content Outline effective July 2026 and the BCEN CEN exam FAQ, checked November 2026. Students train in short sets where missed questions come back until they are mastered, then take full practice tests.

Questions teachers ask
Is the CEN class free?
Yes. Classes are free for teachers. A student in your class also gets that test's full stats and every step of it at no charge.
Do my students need accounts?
No. A student opens your class link, types the name you know them by and starts practicing. An account is optional and keeps their progress across devices.
What do I see as the teacher?
Who practiced and when, each student's practice test scores, the CEN topics the class is weakest on, and every question the class answered with how many missed it and which wrong answer they picked.
Can I use my own questions too?
Yes. Any account can turn its own material into a Tigertest quiz and limit it to one class, so only your students can play it.
