carrington college Reno Kaplan exam 2015

Published

Hey everyone! I just took the Kaplan today for Carrington Reno and did pretty good but I'm not sure if it's good enough because it depends on the pool of people! I was wondering other people's scores and opinions on the best way to study. I retake mine in Febuary. I got a 235/300! Passing is in the 160's but I feel like 235 isn't good enough. Let me know!

Do you remember what you scored for each section? I can't figure out how they do their point system. I hope you get in! It's good that you have back ups. I have not completed all the pre reqs for other programs so I've got all my eggs in this basket.

The way they do it is completely different than what the Kaplan gives you. From the test I got a 92 in math, 82 in reading, and 71 in writing. But for some reason, they have me at lower and different scores.

What did you get?

I'm lucky to have completed all pre requisites, now just to get into a program.

Yeah, the scoring is so weird. I am taking it again tonight, so I will let you know. I took it on the 1st to test the waters and didn't do too well. I got a 95, 71, 67. That gave me a total of 203 points. Hopefully, I can do better tonight since I have had a chance to study what was actually on the test.

Nice! I got a 235, but I can blame that on not studying. Are you applying anywhere else?

Not right now! If I don't get it I'm going to look at other programs! I haven't finished all my pre reqs yet! Are you?

Nope. A friend of mine called them, and they already selected their 36 students. They have until tomorrow to respond. A few have declined, and some haven't responded.

So you got accepted with a 252? What is a cushy place to have your score be based on what you know form fellow classmates that got in?
