I took the NET test a few months ago. In anticipation for the exam I purchased the NET Study Guide from my schools bookstore for a whopping $30 dollars. I took the practice tests found at the end of the book several times. I felt pretty prepared (Well for the math, anyway). But when it came down to actually taking the NET, their was a bunch of sections on the exam I hadn't prepared for. Such as the science, and an English portion of the exam.

I especially had a hard time with this particular "English" portion of the exam. If I can remember correctly, the questions went some thing like An accountant becomes

A) Accountant
B) Accountants
C) Accountant's

and etc. Their were about 15 or so questions in this section.

I'm scheduled to retake the NET again, and still have no clue what their wanting. What exactly is the question asking? Did anyone else have this on their NET? Does anyone know what I'm talking about?! If you do you know, please clue me in. This wasn't covered in the study guide...

I can't remember what website I used to refresh myself on my grammar when I took the NET. I just googled and found what I think is a good site.

It looks to me like they want the proper plural form of the word, which would be B) Accountants. A is singular, and C shows posession, not plurality.

Thanks for the replies.

Where can I go to get information on the Natural Science part of the NAT (NET)? I took a practice test and did horrible on the Natural Science. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would first check to see if your school even considers the science portion of the net. I'm assuming you are referring to the 15 or so multiple choice questions related to biology and anatomy. From doing research on several nursing schools, I've noticed that none of the schools I've researched even consider that part of the exam. The current school I''m at, has their students take the net in its entirety but only look at the reading comprehension and math scores.

I took a pre-test from my school online and it had 10 questions on natural science. The test at FCCJ is NAT, I just picked up the study guide today and just got home so I haven't had a chance to check out the science portion. However, before I purchase it I looked through it and it does have science in it but i didn't see any study material, just the practice test. What would be the best to study for natural science.

I've never heard of the "nat" until today. So I googled nat and I believe you are referring to the nursing amplitude test. If that is the case, here are a couple of sources to help you study:

But like I said before, make sure your school even considers that portion of the test, when evaluating their nursing student applicants. Just because the school has you take all sections of a test, doesn't mean that all sections weigh equally. I had to take all the sections of the NET (including science), but my school only looks at the scores of two sections of the test. So make sure that your school will even recognize your NAT science score. Because if they don't, that just gives you more time to study for the sections that are recognized.

I will check with them 2morrow to see if the science portion counts. Thanks for the help.

I took test A and there were 19 science questions. The rest of the exam was set up with grammar, math and reading exactly the same as the $15.00 pre-test from the eriproducts.com site.
