Carrington Entrance Exam 2019

Published

Hey guys!

I am trying to get into the RN program at the Reno campus for May/June 2019.

I just finished my first attempt at the Kaplan and ended up with a 285/300. Not sure if this will be good enough, but here is my score breakdown:

Math: 96%

Reading: 91%

Writing:86%

Anyone else looking into the May/June start? How did you guys do? Also, if there are any current students out there, how is your experience going so far? ?

It’s a ton of work! I know everyone says that, but it’s more that I had expected ? if you are new to the health field and don’t have knowledge of anatomical terms than I highly suggest you study that before starting, you will be able to follow along better! Also, understand the metric system and it’s conversions to US, and also get as much practice at dimensional analysis as possible. Good luck! ?

do you remember if there is like slope intercept and stuff like that on the math portion of the Kaplan?

No, the math is super easy, fractions, percentages, ratios. However! Chemistry is a lot of volumes, probability, quantum notation. I would definitely get as much math before you start. The Kaplan test doesn’t prepare or test you on the math you are expected to know on day 1

Hey! Congrats on your score! That’s awesome. I’m going to take my test in October. Do you mind letting me know what was on the Test? What I should study on?
