What the Course Entails and Exam Details

This practice exam does not encompass a taught course syllabus but rather assesses a comprehensive curriculum based on the current NBRC test specifications.

It entails a rigorous evaluation of knowledge across several key domains essential for respiratory care practitioners.

Content covers patient assessment, including physical examination and interpreting diagnostic data like ABGs and pulmonary function tests.

You will be tested on therapeutic modalities, such as mechanical ventilation, oxygen therapy, airway management, and pharmacological interventions.

Furthermore, the exam evaluates critical thinking in neonatal and pediatric care, medical gas systems, and pathology-specific treatment algorithms.

Test E aims to simulate the cumulative knowledge required to pass the credentialing process at the higher RRT cut-score level.

What to Expect in the Final Exam

When taking the Lindsey Jones Test E, you should expect a high-fidelity simulation that accurately mirrors the difficulty, structure, and question style of the real NBRC examinations.

The exam typically follows the Therapist Multiple-Choice (TMC) format, consisting of 160 multiple-choice questions (140 scored and 20 pretest).

While not a practical exam in the physical sense, the scenario-based multiple-choice questions frequently require strong application of practical skills and clinical reasoning.

The time limit is generally set to 3 hours, strictly reflecting the time constraints you will encounter on testing day at a Pearson VUE center.

There are usually two distinct passing cut-scores: a lower threshold to achieve the Certified Respiratory Therapist (CRT) credential and a higher threshold needed to sit for the Clinical Simulation Exam to become an RRT.

Successfully passing Test E within the Lindsey Jones system indicates a high probability of success on the actual NBRC Therapist Multiple-Choice Exam.

 How to Study and Exam Centers

The key to utilizing Test E effectively is to take it only after significant study has been completed, treating it as a true dress rehearsal for the real event.

Prior to attempting this practice exam, we recommend thoroughly reviewing Lindsey Jones audio lectures, lecture outlines, and the question analysis tools provided in the software.

When you sit for Test E, create a distraction-free environment and strictly adhere to the time limit to simulate true testing conditions.

After completion, your main focus should be on the detailed question analysis and rationales provided for both correct and incorrect answers.

Understanding why you got a question wrong, and understanding the rationale for the correct choice, is the single most valuable study strategy available with this tool.

Regarding testing locations, Lindsey Jones Test E itself is an online, digital product accessed via the Lindsey Jones student portal; it is not taken at a physical testing center.

However, once you are prepared for the actual NBRC examinations, you must register through the NBRC website and schedule your test at an authorized Pearson VUE testing center.

These secure physical facilities are located globally and handle the high-security administration of professional licensure exams.
