The nursing informatics certification exam, one of many certification exams developed by the ANCC, contains a total of 175 questions, though only 150 are scored. In order to pass the test, you'll need to get a score of at least 350. The exam includes questions on a variety of topics, all listed below.
Our practice tests simulate the real thing in a number of key ways:
We offer 15 online practice exams with
1,500
unique questions.
Our world-class practice certification tests are designed to give you the knowledge you need to pass your ANCC® Informatics Nursing certification exam. We do this by delivering realistic practice
tests that thoroughly prepare you for the ANCC® Informatics Nursing exam. Taking our ANCC® Informatics Nursing practice tests will give you the psychological advantage needed to walk into your test day with confidence.
To pass the ANCC® Informatics Nursing test you need a score of 350.
All ANCC exams are graded on a pass/fail basis, but you do receive a numerical score. This is a scaled score that converts the number of questions you answer correctly to a number on a scale of up to 500. You must get at least a score of 350 to achieve your nursing informatics certification.
ANCC nursing informatics certification requirements must all be met as well before you can become certified. This includes having at least a bachelor's degree in nursing or a similar field with at least two years of experience, completing at least 30 hours of continuing education in the past three years, and meeting specific hour requirements for informatics courses (the number of hours can change depending on your current situation and degree).
After you complete your exam, you should receive your score quickly. Usually, scores are delivered on the same day. The certification is valid for five years, at which time you will need to get recertified in order to keep your license valid. This is actually significantly longer than many other nursing certifications validity periods.
Before taking the ANCC nursing informatics certification test, purchase a set of informatics practice exams. At Exam Edge, we design our practice tests to be just like the real deal, allowing you to use them in several ways. Not only do our exams familiarize you with the test layout and content, but you can use them to guide your nursing informatics certification exam review. Timed, untimed, and detailed explanation versions are available, allowing you to customize the way you study and prepare.
If you're looking for a silver bullet for your ANCC test, Exam Edge is it. You can even take your first practice test for free!
The benefits of our practice exams don't stop there. Once you have completed a practice exam, you will have permanent access to that exam's review page, which includes a detailed explanation for each practice question! Are you confused by a particular question on the practice test? Simply come back to it after you've completed the exam and get a detailed explanation of what the correct answer is and why. No matter how many times you sit for your actual ANCC exam, there's just no comparing the advantages of Exam Edge's practice tests!

That's the kind of valuable experience you'll get with our practice tests and exam prep!
Here are five reasons you should use our exams when designing your ANCC® Informatics Nursing test prep strategy:
I passed the Nurse Practitioner exam on my first attempt! I can't thank you enough! Your tests gave me the confidence I needed to go into the test relaxed and ready to go. Your test format and questions were right on the mark, which made me even more relaxed as I worked my way through the exam. I will recommend your site to everyone I know that’s preparing for the an NP!!!
Jane, FLI just wanted to send a testimonial to let you all know what a wonderful resource that your site is for those preparing for FNP boards, especially the ANCC test. I just took my boards on Thursday and PASSED!! Your site was definitely a HUGE part pf my SUCCESS. Your test/question format is almost identical to the test. I would deem ths site an essential component of test preparation. I will definitely recommend your site to others. Thanks a million,
Nina B, Baton Rouge, LAI found you online while I was desperately searching for exam material that I wouldn't have to lug around. I have referred everyone I know who is planning to take the AANC FNP and Adult boards- I passed yesterday and you were the old source that included all the research and theory information that was never covered at my $395/ 2.5 day long review and poorly covered in my education program. Thank you!
Megan , NYI have to say that this resource is a GODSEND for anyone preparing to take the ANCC exam. I passed, and I highly recommend this resource without ANY hesitation. It's a must!! Thank you!! I'd be honored if you used my testimonial. Trust me I will definitely inform everyone and I mean EVERYONE I know who will be preparing for the ANCC exam to purchase these practice tests. They boost confidence, and gives you a great idea of how the testing enviroment will be. I also liked the fact that it scored you, too, and the rationales were good, too. They are a MUST, and again I thank you!!
Tavell, Monroe, LouisianaEvery new graduate from an FNP program knows that your degree is relatively inactive until you pass the a national certification exam. The stress is overwhelming, especially if you did not have the finances to take an expensive review course. Welll I am so glad I stumbled upon the Family NP prep website. I KNOW that this is the reason that I was successful in passing the exam MY FIRST TIME! The test along with the rationales allowed me to identify my specific areas of weakness and focus my studies. The more exams I took the better I did and the projected scores that Family NP prep provides couldn't have been more accurate! My only advice to anyone studying is to go ahead and purchase all 20 exams, don't nickle and dime it (like I did) and end up spending a little more. Most of my other classmates spent $500.00 dollars on a review cource along with other materials, plus the cost of the exam. What't the difference, I am $500 dollars richer, what do we have in common, we a all CERTIFIED FAMILY NURSE PRACTIONERS!!!!
Jennifer , NCAfter passing the AANP boards today I knew I had to write a testimonial. This site helped me tremendously! I didn't complete any review courses because I just could not afford to spend $495. I found your site via Google and after reading the testimonials I bought all the tests for a great reduced price. I completed all the tests and I am very happy to say that I was confident, calm, and prepared for this exam. I am now N. Clarke, MSN, FNP, NP-C and I have AANP-FNP to thank!
Clarke, FLI was referred to you by a friend who took her national exam months earlier and used your prep. She swore by these tests and said it's the only prep she used. I bought two exam books but just didn't have the time to read all of them, and, found myself very frustrated at times when I did answer questions because I seemed to get so many wrong. I did buy your tests, all 20 for ANCC, and reviewed and reviewed and reviewed wrong answers, rationales, right answers, and, on my first attempt, I passed
Roni, VirginiaTook the examine this morning and passed. The tools definitely help prepare me, in fact i would say I would have never passed without your practice exams. You site should be used by anyone taking the Nurse Executive exam. Thank you
Tisdale, MassachusettsI purchased over 20 exams and truly am so thankful I did. My studying prior was patchy and frustrating. Through the exams I was able to review the content I incorrectly answered and am proud to say I passed on my first go round. Not an easy feat with a family and job! Thanks
Lissette, VirginiaI wanted to let you know that I passed my FNP exam with flying colors. The test questions on your site were exceptionally helpful in my review. Thank you very much
Theresa, Millstadt, IllinoisI just wanted to let your company know that this was a life saver for me when preparing for my exams. I have extreme test anxiety and it helped me focus on test taking strategy. Not to mention, it was very helpful with studying the nonclinical areas of the exam that other programs had no focus on. I passed my boards this past week and I have already shared this site with many of my friends! Thanks again
Jennifer , GeorgiaThank you for developing these tests, I passed the FNP exam today and it was very helpful to use your tests over the past few months, helped tremendously.
Cheryl , Prosper, TexasOn Wednesday night I realized that I needed to practice test questions for my APHN exam scheduled for Thursday. I found your site when I did a web search. The process of payment was easy and I started taking the tests. The tests I took on your platform were good in helping me solidify my knowledge and gain some practice for test taking. I completed the entire test package 500 questions in all (plus the 10 practice questions). The last test I took at the testing site. Not only did the test help me build confidence, I was also expand my knowledge when I reviewed the questions. I took my test on Thursday and passed, and I want to say thank you for providing a product that works.

JoAnn, Houston, TexasI just wanted to thank-you for the tests. I passed my certification today and I know your exams had a lot to do with it. I will confess that it was the third time I sat for my certification and I was very nervous. Your exams gave me the confidence I needed. I will be passing this website on to my peers
Sharon , Toledo, Ohio.Hi Exam Edge! I just wanted to say thank you for this site! I feel like it really prepared me for my ANCC certification exam (FNP-BC). The practice tests are formatted very similar to the actual test. I passed the first time with confidence! Yay!
Jennifer , GeorgiaI just wanted to tell you that your tests/learning modules were the single biggest factor in my preparation and passing of my NP board exam. I had several books and went to a nationally touted seminar but the best preparation was your Test Prep! Thanks again for a wonderful study method and learning module.

Jill, Bangor MaineI can't thank you enough for your mental health practice tests. I have been struggling for a year to past this test and was finally able to do it after using your product. Your practice tests gave me the confidence I needed, which allowed me to enter the test more relaxed and focused.
Ralph , Sacramento CAI would like to say that I passed my Nurse Executive Exam this morning. I took over 10 practice exams and I must say that I felt prepared because of it. I will definitely recommend this product for others. Thank you!!!!!!
Angela , VirginiaI wanted to thank you as part of my all-out effort from 3 different sites to study and pass the PMHRN test! I did it by putting nose to grindstone, but I did it with your help in only 3 weeks too! Thanks a million,
Leonard , Anchorage, AKI took my FNP boards yesterday through ANCC and passed! I owe it all to FamilyNPprep! I took a in person review course for over $500.00 and it didn't help me nearly as much as this site did! Thank you so much! Your resources are a true gem and I will recommend them to all the new NPs that I know.
Ashlee , MichiganI passed my ANCC! Thank you for a wonderful way to practice and prepare for the exam!! The questions and rationals helped me focus on specific areas of weakness. In addition to this program, I highly recommend a wonderful book by Maria Leik, Family Nurse Practitioner Certification Intensive Review. These two sources helped me pass the ANCC exam. I am delighted!
Carmen, MaineI graduated from my PNP program in 2002. At that time, taking the Certification exam was optional. I landed an NP immediately after graduation as I was 7 months pregnant with my first child. I purchased review materials however life happened. I practiced in pediatric neurology for 14 years. I got grandfathered in. Three months ago, I started a new job which required board certification in order to be a Medicare provider. I was so stressed out! I came across a You Tube video and a recent graduate was raving about your tests. I had already done a very expensive online review, but I didn't feel ready. I purchased all 10 pediatric exams...I didn't even get to do all the exams! Your exams really prepared me for the ANCC. I had so many research and policy question that I know for a fact your test helped me succeed on the ANCC. I took the exam three days ago, for the first time and PASSED.... While I was taking the exams, I did not score well, but retaking the practice exams, and doing further reading in the subjects in which I was weak significantly helped. Thank you for providing such a great service that does not coast $400!!!
Marie, PPCNP-BC, Land O Lakes, FLI feel compelled to contact you and inform you of how much your product assisted me in passing the ANCC Family Nurse Practitioner Certification exam. I paid almost $400 for a review course, which did help, but not any more than the 10 review tests I purchased from Exam Edge. I passed on the first attempt. Many of the test questions were similar to the exam. I think that it is also notable that I only studied the practice questions for 5 days. So, there you have it.....your practice tests were the most influential prep in helping me to pass the exam. Thank you so much!
Maryam , Wilmington, NCNot really helpful for AG-ACNP ANCC content. Maybe would be better for AANP certification?
Maura , Sylvania, OhioI just signed up for the review. cant tell until I pass. site was a little convoluted to navigate
dahlia , New Rochelle, New YorkGreat Exams, really helped me prepare for my exam
Greg, Atlanta, GeorgiaQuestions were not even close to the questions on the test or in test books. Too much emphasis on case management.
Cathy , Coatesville, IndianaI'm afraid the questions may not be as advanced as they will be on the licensure exam. We will see. I had one question that I knew was incorrect and I had two questions that were repeated. Good content to help focus review of the exam. Also I am not aware of any other kind od practice tests available for AGCNS licensure so 4 stars for trying!!!!
Sarah , POCAHONTAS, Arkansasthanks a lot for your great explanation
Tareq E. , St Paul MNI wish I had bought the 20-bundle!! These practice tests were instrumental in focusing my studying and test-preparation. For some answers, I would have preferred if the rationales had explained why the wrong options were wrong in addition to why the right answers were right. Overall, I'm really satisfied with my purchase. I mean, I passed my test!
CARMA , Chicago, IllinoisThe tests helped immensely! I passed the first time and it is the only study material I used!
Julieann , Lexington, South CarolinaGreat questions and explanations
Comfort , Worcester, MassachusettsGreat exam questions, set up just like the exam. I loved the site.

Adam R, ILExcellent review studies.. its like a real exam.
Christine , ODESSA, TexasI wanted to let you all know that I purchased these exams along with a few books. I studied the exams and rationales over and over. It really helped and I passed my certification
Regina , Harris County, TexasI took the Nurse Executive on 4/4/22 and passed. The test questions were helpful mainly due to the rationales. I would have loved to see where there is a filtering aspects for certain areas for example if I wanted to filter questions related to leadership that option would be an added value to the product
Sherene G, Houston, TXThe practice exam for the ANCC Nurse Executive Exam, really helped me assess what I knew and the areas/subject matter I needed to study more. The explanations provided learning, as well as a review of the required content on the exam. The practice questions could timed and which allowed me to pace myself, practice reading the questions and how to answer correctly. I am so thankful that I discovered this website. I would recommend this product to anyone preparing to take the Nurse Executive Exam. I passed!!!

You are taking that next step in your nursing career and need to take the ANCC exam. What exactly are the ANCCs all about?
The American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) is the credentialing branch of the American Nurses Association (ANA). Its programs certify and recognize nurses in specialty practice areas. The tests are designed to objectively validate entry-level competency in a defined role and clinical area of practice based on established standards.
The content of the ANCC exam includes the scope of practice, ethics, reimbursement, and clinical content of each specialized area. ANCC examinations are computer-based assessments consisting predominantly of multiple-choice type questions, although drag and drop, hot spot, and multiple-response types are included in some. The exams are criterion-referenced. That is, the score is based on minimum standards that must be met in order to demonstrate the ability to practice the profession safely and competently rather than being compared to others taking the test. The exams range from 150 to 175 scored items and 25 pilot items that are not included in the final score. The scores are scaled for a maximum scaled score of 500 with 350 being the minimum passing score. The four-hour testing time includes check-in, instructions, and a computer practice session. The ANCCs are administered at a Prometric Testing Centers and test results will be available before leaving the testing center.
For more information on ANCC exams visit ANCC Exams.
I just received my Family Nurse Practitioner exam score and I passed with a 440! Your tests definitely made the difference for me! The questions on the real test were so similar that I felt very comfortable taking it. I will recommend your site to everyone I know that’s preparing for the FNP!!!
