Abstract
Background: Nursing exams were developed with time. This work sought to enhance the quality of written nursing exams. Methods: This prospective study was conducted at the Higher Health Institute in Al Anbar in Iraq between 2021-2023. The author grouped the selected nursing students into two age groups: under 22 and over 22. The author utilized Bloom's Taxonomy for questioning. Results: Among 178 students, 89 were females (50 %), 55 of females were below 22 years (30.9 %). For the short essay exam, 38 females below 22 years got good marks (21.3 %) while 15 females above 22 years got good marks (8.4 %). For problem-solving questions, 39 males under 22 years old received good marks (21.9 %), while 28 males above 22 years old received good marks (15.7 %). Conclusion: Hazim Alhiti's Perspective Regarding Written Nursing Exams is that different written tests are given for different nursing classes to avoid cheating.
