So I take it you decided on Keiser huh??

what made you decide??

If math is yoru roughest subject, I would suggest getting the NET study guide book-- it will tell you what kind of math is on that test.

I took the net three times, and I got a 60% on all---- math my lowest, and english and writing my highest.---

good luck in your future RN studies.

Well today I went to Keiser to talk with an advisor. It seems as though the wait will still be long. I'm just looking into all my options. I have all pre-Rexs done for Polk Comm. College. I did not have enough points to enter in Jan. I'll most likely re-apply there in May. I will then have points for finished credits for the degree, but not need to apply.

Back to Keiser, I can live with the student loans if I was to enter sooner. It could possibly be 2010 Jan. or Aug. With a really slight chance of Aug. 2009. Their is also this NET test. Did you already have college Algrebra when you took the test? I read in the notes that it was basic math not advanced. Is that so?

I am just ready to start Nursing, and this wait is a killer.

Thanks for your prior reply!!

I took the NET... and have taken College Algebra twice. The first time I took College Algebra, I got a "D,".. the second time a "C..." What did I score on the NET? The first time, a 96%.. the second, a 94%. No joke.. it truely is basic math.. and I found it a lot easier than College Algebra. Like Bumblebee, I would also suggest you get the NET study guide if math is your roughest asset. That is what I skimmed through prior to taking the test. Also, unlike a lot of other study guides- the NET study guide pretty much covers what you'll find on the actual test. There isn't a whole lot of fluff to it. If you understand the concepts in that guide.. you'll be good for the math portion.

What did you get on the NET taking it at PHCC? Did you get in?

Where is this NET study guide? Is this a book I can purchase or find online?

Hey Dan,

I was chosen as an alternate for Spring '09 semester. Primarily because my reading comprehension score wasn't up to par.. and PHCC looks heavily at your score in that particular portion of the test.

You can purchase the NET study guide (I believe) at any of the PHCC bookstores. Mine is an old version, and I bought it there for $25. I'm sure they have the new version at the bookstore. You can also purchase it online here. You should probably shop around- because I noticed that the prices range depending on where you're buying it. Or, find someone on this forum who is selling theirs for cheaper, that's always a good option. I, personally, didn't find the reading comprehension section of this study guide very useful- but the math section was a decent overview.

Hope that helps!

When I took it I didn't really study for it.. But I was a math guy in high school.. but what I found surprising was the fractions on that test. Brush up on multiplying and dividing fractions.. That will definitely help. Those took me forever to remember how to do.. Luckily I did well the first time I passed.

Hi Kgreen 4, If you get in at Keiser be prepared for fast paced learning. Make sure that you don't have other things on your plate or you will quickly become overwhelm, unless you have a strong support system.
