One of the schools I'm looking at requires me to take it as part of their pts system. I am currently in LPN school and intend to bridge straight over. All my pre-req's are done, so this test shouldn't be too tough, right? I'm just trying to get a feel for what I may need to brush up on, or study for it. Thanks!

I'm not sure what state you are in, or if it is a universal test, but I took the NET in PA in 2006. It was a lot of reading comprehension, and the math was mostly algebra, high school level, maybe college level. I have heard that they might have added a science section since then, but I'm not 100% sure.
My school offered a NET test Study Guide (which I bought for $36) but it didn't help me much. What did help was a trip to the neighborhood library where I checked out a huge book of standardized Medical & Nursing Entrance exams.
Good Luck!

I will be taking my test on Wednesday so I will be able to tell you what I thought of it.
I also have a study guide and I do feel like it's helping me. I got it from a friend and I know it's also about $30 at the school bookstore.
In the Pre-Nursing Student forum Csantos posted a really really good thread with some links to websites in the first post that have helped me out a lot to practice.
