Is there a list of rules for the test online? Im trying to find out if calculators are allowed, and any other important details. I registered in person @ Delgado for the test next month, but I never received anything in the mail. Should I have received a confirmation?

If anyone has any additional info, suggestions, tips, please post

Thanks.

Calculators are not allowed and the paper you received when you signed up should be your confirmation. You may get another letter in the mail confirming the test info. Bring your id and that letter. The manual that they tell you to buy is all you need to pass the test. Study it from front to back, the test looks just like that. Take the practice tests in the book. Some people said there was more chemistry, I had more biology. I did well on english and math, but not as well on science. Just relax. I passed it the first time and I only had one biology course years ago. Read the manual. If you are still unsure, call or visit the office where you signed up for the test, they will answer your questions.

No calculators. When you signed up did you pay? When you pay, you will receive an instruction sheet. It basically tells you where to report and what not to bring or do. If your cell rings you will be escorted out and receive a 0 as your score. Be on time and get a good breakfast. It's really not that bad.

My science was probably 80% physics. I did well, but I studied a lot. I made study sheets, hoping they would help other students too. I have posted them at http://homepage.mac.com/melissa33 just click on subjects and then nursing. I gave up on Charity, by the time students get in and complete Charity they can have a four year degree.
Good luck!

Are the study sheets you referrring to for A&P 1 & 2 or the PAX test?

Since you gave up on Charity, where did you go? Is the PAX test valid at other schools, or just Charity.

I took the PAX test yesturday, not sure how I did yet

Not A&P...click on nursing and then exam study sheets to find the PAX. As far as I know it is only good for Charity. I am starting Dillard in the Fall. They have excellent nursing and public health programs.
I hope you did well....no worries, you should get your results quickly. I got mine two weeks to the day!

I see you also have some study guides for A&P II on your site. How far along did you get at Delgado before you decided to goto Dillard?

Does anyone have any good links to other nursing sites, possibly another good bulletin board similiar to this one, or just nursing links in general?

Thanks

I am starting Dillard in the fall. I got all my pre-reqs for Charity done this last semeser, but did not want to wait to get in, spend two years there and walk out with only an associate's, when I can do the same time at a 4-year school and end with BSN. I looked at Holy Cross, LSU and Dillard and, since I wanted a double major with Public Health, ound Dillard to be best suited for my goals. It is a bit expensive - a good bit (read: GOOD BIT) more expensive than DCC Charity! that will hurt....
