What kind of scores did you get over all and on the math and reading? My school has a point system which goes more off the reading than anything else. I am just looking to see what kind of score I need to get to be looked at. Thanks

I'm sorry but it depends on the school. You need to talk to a counselor that keep such information at your school to see what is/was competitive.

At the school I am attending I took the Net test last week I scored a 88 on the math and 52 on the reading. My school requires you get a minium score of 60 on the Math and 55 on the reading. So I missed the reading by 3 points and have to wait 2 years until I can retest and apply if I want to attend the curretn school I am at.

At my school they required at 60 on both math and reading up till the end of summer. Then they changed it to 65 on both. I took the test this past summer and scored a 88 on Math and 63 on reading. I felt the reading was harder because your brain is drained from doing the math 1st and I wanted to get the test over to get out of there. But each school's requirements are different. I would recommend getting the Net Text practice book. If you need one I still have mine and would sell it you for $10. PM me and I'll send you information.

I suggest talking to the program to find out what they want. The reading was the hardest part, IMO, but it is still doable. Get the study guide to help you review. The study guide is questions are very similiar to the actual test questions, so it is a really good tool. Good luck!

On my state's NET exam you had get 27 out of 60 in math to pass and 20 out of 33 to pass reading. I got a 56 in Math and a 27 in reading, but I agree with the other posts, check with your school because it varies

Hi, I can't remember what I scored. but I do know I was in the 98th percentile overall. I scored overall like an 80-something. So I'm not sure...I hope this helps. I have noticed with the feedback that I see on this website that most schools emphasize reading over math comprehension.

I scored a 96 on math, a 97 on reading, a 95 on comprehension and an 85 on science. I don't know what my school really looks at but I do know that you need 75% in each section to pass. Good Luck!

hey all,

I am getting ready to take the net test ...what kind of math is on the test? I HATE math with a passion and i freak out about it alot and i need a composite score of 72% to enter the LPN program....

thanks

I took the test in June. The math involves lots of fractions, adding subtracting multiplying decimals. The questions were done in multiple choice form.
