CONGRATULATIONS!!! You indeed scored very well...You scored in the 91 percentile, which means you scored better than 91% of the people who took that very same test or only 9 percent of the test takers scored better than you...which ever way you prefer to look at it. I believe from what I was just told, the average composite percentile is 100. You scored 120 so you are well above the average. Take those results and run!!!!!

Hello, maybe someone can tell me how to read my test results and guess where I rank. I got a 120 composite (total I guess). Verbal I scored a 91 and the other AD composite I got an 81. Is that good ? Can anyone help decipher these confusing results ??? A friend of mine said I scored really well, but I don't know. Can anyone help ?

There should be three colunmn under percentile norms (If I remember correctly)

One is DI (diploma), AD (ADN) and ALL

If you scored a 91 under your program type, then you did well above average. It is a great score...........congratulations :)

120 composite is wonderful too :balloons:

At the bottom it should tell you how many people took the exam with you that day. For example 62,071 students from 361 programs in 47 states. That means you did better than 91% of those students (pat yourself on the back).

Wow, I guess I did pretty well huh ? I am pretty suprised at myself actually. All I did was take a pre-algebra class and I studied the NLN book for 2 months before the test. I thought I BOMBED it, but I guess not. I get my letter in March, so now starts the waiting game. If anyone else has any more feedback, please let me know ! ! ! !
