    Hello All~

    I just ecieved my scores for the LPN Pre admission test to Bucks ccc.
    Keeping in mind that I did not study, and wish that I did, my scores are terrible:

    Verbal: 32/60
    Math: 12/40
    Science: 23/60

    Composite Percentile Score: 41

    Composite Score: 94

    I am unclear on how to decipher this. I know that I could have/should have done better. It was hard to find time between working full time, kids, life, etc.. No excuses for myself. I should have set time aside.

    Has any one here ever attended or tried to attend Bucks County CC, in PA? If so, what do they go by? Do I have any chance of acceptance with these grades (I hope so) ? Please let me know any thing that would help decipher the grades, what they mean, and the requirements at Bucks CCC. Thank you in advance and I wish everyone Happiness, love, health and sucsess!

    The old time beginner!

    I go to BUCKS CCC currently. They consider passing by your composite percentile score. This year for admission, you needed to have 55 or over to get invited to the 2nd phase of admission. Plus they have really upped the criteria to get in... I heard the previous year;s class had about 46 people. As far as I know, there were at least 140 ppl that took the NLN for this years program. My class admitted 27.... now halfway through we have 24 ( 3 already dropped out)...... Rough stuff
