Okay just got home from taking the test. It was hard. Might have to retake this bad boy again. I noticed people retaking the exam. Is it different from the first? Do they make it harder because it is your second time taking it? please someone help.

Question to those who took the test - do you remember ANY questions from the test? Which study guide have you used?

[stufnsuch]

honestly...I can't remember anything from the vocab or science, but I remember that there was a newton question in the math sections...something about how much a baby weighs in Newton...all the questions on this test are so hard that you can't remember any of them...you're stressed out and freaked out. I've just taken it for the second time...passed but only increased my Math section (by 28 points). I live in NH and I'm applying to two schools nearby. Both schools require all your paperwork to be in by Feb 1st....then we play the waiting game. One school gets about 200 applicants, but only take 24 students...the other school get about 400 applicants and take 100 students.

good luck to me!!! and to all of you too.

Ive noticed on this thread that everyone talks about waiting for weeks for their results, but Ive taken the nln twice and both times i took it was on a computer and got my score back within 5 mins of taking it. Am i the only one?

[aminaasad]

these nln test are paper based and they take a couple of weeks for the results. Very nerve racking

Becca, are you sure you weren't taking a different type of test? The NLN, as far as I know, is only offered on paper and is sent back to NLN in New York to be graded.

I usually got my results back within a week, but I know some people wait longer.

Yes, im positive. Its the only entr. exam my school offers and goes by. Ive seen others result sheets (that have taken the written exam) and they are the same.

NLN offers a computer version and a paper version. Some schools allow the computer version and the results are instant.

I had to wait a week for mine to come in the mail, but it was worth it. 98th percentile first try.
