Exam Code: C-NNIC
Exam Name: Certified Neonatal Neuro-Intensive Care
Number of Questions: 125 multiple-choice items total. Of these- 100 are scored- and 25 are pretest items used for statistical data on future exams (unscored and indistinguishable from scored items).
Time Allotted: 2 hours.
Passing Score: The test uses a criterion-referenced scoring method- where the passing score is predetermined by NCC based on expert judgment of minimum competency. The exact passing percentage is not publicly specified (varies by test form) and is not provided to candidates. Results are pass/fail only; if passed- you receive feedback on performance strengths/weaknesses across content areas (e.g.- "Very Weak" to "Very Strong").
