Any one taking NET at Baker or applying for fall?

Thanks for the replies!!

cakmd2 - we are most likely going to be in the same test group? Man that sucks that you were so close! I have a few questions if you do not mind:

1. They said to just bring pencils, so I am assuming they provide the scan tron?
2. Was the test like the study guide in your opinion?
3. Did you feel that you had enough time to finish?
4. How long did it take for you to get the results?
5. They only score on math and reading comprehension still?
6. Can we bring water?
7. Do you know what your friends total points were?

Lol....okay I think that is all. This is my first time taking the NET and I am really nervous.

Thanks for the info! I did not know that they let you take it a 3rd time, I will definatly keep that in mind. I went today for my test. I walked out feeling more worried than when I went in. It just went by so fast and I started to panic a bit. Do you know if they count the written expression area with the capitalization, punctuation, etc? I heard that they do as part of the Reading Comprehension. What about the biology section?

They made us get rid of our water, I hid mine in my purse but they made some people throw it away. They gave us bright red paper for scratch paper, I couldn't even read what I wrote on it after a while and it really slowed me down.

The proctor said that the NET results would be mailed around June 1st and the acceptance/denial letters around August 1st. That is such a long time to wait. I saw one of the TA's that use to work in the Tech center today on the way to the test. He had his white nursing scrubs on and looked so happy. He is a awesome student and helped me a lot in labs. It was cool to see him in the program. I wonder if he comes on here? Hi John, if you are on here....lol.

We were in the same class! I sat right behind her in the white shirt. I really think that she did not understand the instructions, maybe language was a barrier for her because she asked a zillion times about the 1 min timed reading part. I feel bad for her but it does say in the book at the end of each test to stop. I thought maybe the were going to let her off but then if they did someone could complain because she may have been going ahead they whole time which isn't fair. They may have let her retry the next day but if they didn't she is stuck and has to wait until fall to take it again and then apply for spring 2010.

So do you think the vocab/punctuation may not be counted? I was confused on some of those. I was hoping the science would not count because my mind went blank on some since it has been a long time since I was in AP 1. I just finished the last paragraph on the reading when they called time, I could have used more time, I thought the wording of the paragraphs was confusing on some of them. That's cool that they are the same, I have already forgotten most of what was on the test already...lol.

Good luck to you also! I have a bad feeling that I did not do as well as I would like. I scored a 76, 86, and 94 when I took the practice test but I was really tired when I took the actual test and my mind kept going blank because I was so stressed out. I hope they hurry up, maybe it will be here before the 1st because we need to go get the application packets soon.

The letter I have says application packets for fall 2009 start will be available in the academic office from Monday, June 1st through Friday, June 5th during regular business hours.

I have had several classes where someone asks a ton of questions or tells a life story about every single topic and you are like enough already!!...lol.

I hope they send the scores tomorrow I am really starting to doubt myself and wonder if I am even going to get the 50 points needed to apply. I hate that you have to wait till the fall to try again, some schools let you take it twice in one semester. I hope you do well to! I am just ready for all of this waiting to be over so I can enjoy my summer off, this is my first semester off since summer 2007 and I am ready to just relax and do the things I have been unable to do this whole time. I am not going to know what to do with myself without summer classes....lol.
