Frequently Asked Questions
Is the CNA vocabulary game free?
Yes. The game is free to play with no sign-up. Signing in adds AI explanations for any term.
How does the CNA vocabulary game work?
Each round shows a clue for one of 40 CNA terms. Guess the term in six tries: green means the right letter in the right spot, yellow means the letter is in the term but in another spot, and gray means it is not in the term. After the round, read the explanation and play the next term.
Where do the CNA terms come from?
OpenExamPrep researched each term from the State Nurse Aide Registries (Credentia/NNAAP, Prometric, or D&S Diversified) content outline and primary sources, listed under Sources on this page. The game is independent study material, not an official exam resource.
What is the CNA exam pass rate?
Use your state or program's official report. Identify the year, knowledge or skills component, first-time or repeat attempts, and denominator before comparing rates. A component rate is not the percentage passing the entire certification process.
How hard is the CNA exam?
Difficulty depends on the candidate and testing program. Practise knowledge questions and the exact current skills checklist separately. Question counts, timing and task selection vary by vendor; a practice score cannot guarantee the official result.
