Failed NET. Any advice for brushing up on math and reading?

[proudRN]

I received my NET test results and the mail today and I did horribly! I got a 68% in math and a 39% in reading comprehension. I have not been in school for 15 years so I am blaming it on that. ( I have to blame something, I just cannot assume that I am dumb!) What can I do to brush up on my math and reading comp? Any suggestions? Thanks!

I can't say for sure since my school uses the TEAS instead of the NET, but I found that the study guides you can purchase online were very helpful. Plus, since you have taken the test once, you will have a better idea of what to study. Good luck next time!!

the advice on the thread up top call "all about the net" is very helpful. also i would purchase a study guide. i got the one my school offers and combined it with the advice on the thread above. i'm sure you'll be fine after brushing up on some things its hard to remember the math skills that we learned in jr high when you've been out for awhile. good luck.
