What your students practice

The State Final Examination is the examination the Nursing Council of New Zealand (Te Kaunihera Tapuhi o Aotearoa) sets for graduates of approved nursing programmes before it registers them as registered or enrolled nurses. A New Zealand graduate applying for registration as a registered nurse supplies their State Final Examination results, support from the head of their school of nursing and two referees, and the Council registers successful applicants as soon as practicable after they pass. The Council's public website does not set out the number of questions, time or pass standard; candidates should ask their school of nursing or the Council for the current exam details.

Tigertest's practice follows Nursing Council of New Zealand: Register as a nurse, Registered nurse scope of practice (January 2025) and Standards of competence for registered nurses (2025), 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 NZ State Final 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 NZ State Final 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.
