Are my NLN scores good?

[Shanny246]

Hi. I took the NLN on January 7th and I got my results yesterday. It reads as follows:

Composite score: 123 Composite percentiles: DI (90) AD (84) ALL (85)

My percentiles for the ALL section is 64 (verbal), 92 (math), and 68 (science)

The school I am applying to requires 50 percentile or better. I am not sure if this is good enough though, I know nursing schools are very competitive! I am applying to a few, but hoping to get into Rivier College in Nashua NH. Please let me know how these scores are!

Your scores sound awesome to me! I just got my scores back recently as well, and you did a heck of alot better than me! I don't know about you, but I felt completely rushed and didnt have enough time to answer my questions. But I dont think you have anything to worry about, I think your scores are pretty darn good! Good luck!! :)

It really does depend on the strength of the scores of the applicant pool for your cohort. And how these scores are used by your college when determining who is accepted.
