*In order to successfully complete the prep candidates must maintain 90% attendance, candidates who complete the LPN prep will take the CNET exam in early May.
I have 2 questions because this is clear yet still a little vaugue 2 me
*About the TABE- the one that i took to get into this prep i heard was an easier level of the exam..level D I believe and they said the next TABE would be level A.
1. At what point during the prep do we take the TABE again? Right b4 the CNET? I'm assuming we have to pass the TABE in order to be allowed to take the CNET (since the letter says we'd be REASSESSED) but when do they administer that exam? A week b4? A month?
OR
2.Is it the CNET first and then the TABE A???
Sorry if i sound a bit confused or even worse confusing you and any other posters but i just wanna know what i should start studyin for first.
Like i said before, in order to take TABE A YOU NEED TO PASS THE CNET, IF YOU DO NOT PASS THE CNET THEY WILL NOT LET YOU SIT AND TAKE THE TABE A EXAM. Yes you might practice the TABE A in school but thats just practuce, in order to take the real TABE a you need to pass the CNET. ALSO I HAVE NO IDEA BECAUSE I DIDNT ATTEND THE PREP PROGRAM SO I DO NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WILL GIVE YOU THE Practice TABE A EXAM,BUT FROM WHAT YOUR LETTER SAIDS YOU TAKE THE CNET IN MAY WHEN YOU COMPLETE THE CNET PREP PROGRAM. I think you will practice the CNET study guides with the class and your teacher and when you all are prepare for the cnet the teacher will continue and help you guys Practice for the TABE A exam
Yes CNET is first then its the TABE A exam. I think you should start studying both, but take it day by day you got into a prep program so the teacher will help you out alot, You have 4 months to study! The CNET is basic reading and math The math questions are divideing ,multiplying subtracting ,like i said basic! the only thing is that you are timed!!!! i think 1 hour for like 60 questions! so you really need to buy those study guides and time your self like i did, you need a 40 to pass, i scored a 69 math i think which is very good.
The TABE is something you really need to study hard!!!! VEry hard , like i said go to barnes and nobles and by the study guide book. YOU NEED THAT! The math is harder and so is the reading
In the math you have 25 mins to complete 50 questions. .... Just take you time and study now! You have alot of time!
So you already know, you need to take the cnet before you take the TABE
From what i read on the paper i dont think you have to send out a application for the CNET, but i think you should and when you send it out buy 2or 3 practice books with the study guide and study! the more the better practice
Also are they taking more people for the prep program still? when does it start? Is it in the morning, Let me know.
