i was just wondering if anyone knew what the difference was for paper based exams and computer based exams...is one much difficult then the other?? i'm registering to take the exam and wasn't sure with that option and also if i'm applying to more than one school that requires the test it's ok if i take the exam somewhere else right? all the school would just be contacted with the results right?

The only difference between the paper and the computer version I know of is that the results for the paper version take a week to two weeks to get back, whereas the computer version you get instantly. When I took the test they told us that if we wanted the results sent to more schools we had to pay extra. But to my understanding you can take it where you want, as long as you are willing to pay. Hope this helps!

note that my school only accepts NLN scores that apply to a test given through THEM, absolutely nothing from another school NLN wise...and the instant results are great BTW! Just remember todouble check the acceptance of the scores if the test is preformed at a different site!
Good luck~
