Hi I take my test (kaplan) Monday March 19. Can anyone tell me what should I study? I'm more worried about the anatomy section so I'm mainly focusing on that. Can you tell me how long each section is? Any tips would help. If you want to really go into depth you can also email me at [email protected] Good luck to all test takers.

Hay blessed78 I take mine monday the 19th also. Im kind of worried because I don't know how to study for it the study guide goes into to much detail. I took the hesi just this week and made an 84% I'm not sure if your familiar with it. I figured if I pass one entrance test I should pass another one. Do you know if it's like the hesi. To me the Hesi was easy but you still had study for it. Can you share anything that you may have heard bout it. I wish you good luck monday.

Hi. There was an attachment on the first email about the mandatory nursing meeting from Mari, Carmen around Feb 10. I can forward it to you guys if you don't still have it. I would say the examples given there are pretty accurate. That is how the A&P questions are phrased. I had to take a minute to decipher the question so I could answer it properly. Just take your time and read the question/answer options thoroughly. A note about the test: you can not skip questions and come back to them later. If you skip one it is counted wrong. For me that was annoying. I don't know if the Hesi did that, limitless.

Anyway here is the test set up: (this is also the order the test is given by the computer, at least mine was)

Reading comp: 22 ques 45min

Math: 28 ques 45 min

Writing: 21 ques 45 min

Science(all A&P): 20 ques 30 min

Good Luck! You will all do fine!

I heard that is where it was. I just never got that first email. Myself and others who last names were P-R never got the original email. Very frustrating, let me tell you. Then we emailed the administration...and they apologized and sent it out. But I don't remember mine having any attachments. Glad to hear you got such a fab score... I have only taken the TEAS the one time and got an 82 on it. Was going to retake but GPC told me I didn't have to my GPA and TEAS score are competitive enough... Can't wait to hear from both schools. though I'm scared!

Good luck to everyone still waiting!

Wow, what a wealth of information! Thank you for the breakdown. I am one of the unfortunate who never got that email from admissions. :sniff: would you be so kind to forward it to me? I take mine next Thursday and have only studied from the Kaplan review book, which is soooo broad. Thanks so much.

how did you guys do that took it today? I take mine the last day- the 29th. I'm nervous but beginning to calm down a bit. If that's even possible. LOL

@seventyseven77 So sorry. I just realize you had quoted me to send you the link. I just did. again, so so sorry. Are you ready??

Kamecee, it's really ok. Another reader was kind enough to send me the email, but thank you so much anyway. I don't feel ready at all to take the exam!!! I have not been able to focus on the Kaplan as much as I would have liked... I am currently taking four classes. But, I will try my best come Thursday. Thanks again for what you have posted here, it's been extremely helpful.

Math is simple. Reading is reading. Whether you study or not or not most likely you will come out with the same grade. Writing... No way to study for that. The examples in the book are not accurate. Science... Study your AP2 lecture notes. The study guide only touches the surface, some questions are in depth. But do not panic. If you feel you know enough, most likely you will do well sweety. Just do not stress it. Please...just relax, breath, and eat well. You will kick butt. :-)
