Just wondering what your thoughts are on the NET test and if you think it is harder or about the same as the PSB test.. Thanks, Amanda

Amanda,

Sorry I did not see this earlier! I have taken both, and IMHO I thought the NET to be a bit more difficult. PSB has sections on judgement, spelling, etc. Whereas NET had math and reading only. If you can get a copy of the NET study guide, it helps.

HTH,
Lori

What is the PSB test?

The PSB is the test you have to take and pass with a certain core score before you can be accepted into any LPN program. It is done on the computer and takes about between 2 and 3 hours. It covers sections on math, spelling, science, nursing judgement, and critical thinking. At my school it has about a 30-35% pass rate. They also have a website if you were interested. Just google "psbtest" and you should find it.
