I just started the college process. I took those two exams today. Tomorrow I find out if I passed and register for classes.

I got my results right away. I think placement tests are an awesome way to assess your knowledge and put you in the right classes. I hope you get placed into the classes you want/need!

Good luck!

I too received my results right away. They printed out directly from the computer I was using to take the test. It was a good thing too, I am terrible at waiting for results.

I wish you good luck!

My results also printed as soon as I was done testing. It's not a pass/fall test it just determines which courses you should start with. I hope you did well!

The tests were on paper not on the computer. There was an essay on the english test, too. I'm really bad at writing essays.

Yay! The math placement test would place you in one of four classes.The math teacher called me this morning to say I passed the test and I can go in the highest class. I don't need a math class for the nursing program, so I don't have to worry about math. I passed my english test as well. I met with the nursing adviser and she thinks that since I passed all of the placement tests I can start nursing school in the fall. They don't offer A&P I in the spring, so I'm trying to take it online and A&P II in the summer online. I registered for these classes today:

Intro to Psychology

Intro to Social Sciences

Drug Dosage Calculation

Medical Terminology

Freshman Development Seminar

It'll be 14 credits in all, if I can get into the A&P class online.

I think if you're willing to study hard, it's doable. Most people who've been out of school for as long as you have, have to take the math class. There was a woman about your age that took the test with me and I think she had to take the math class as well. She is trying to go to nursing school too.
