Currently a highschool senior and Im taking my assessment test tmrw for my community college. It doesn't matter if u fail or pass it. Just to see what classes are best for you. What happens if I don't do well on it & end up taking more classes. Would I not be able to get into the nursing program if I end not doing so good in that test.

No. Nursing schools are going to care about your GPA, etc. The only scores they really look at are scores for tests they require (TEAS, HESI, etc), not a community college's initial assessment test. If you do poorly on it, it just means the community college will want you to take certain remedial courses before moving onto courses that you'd earn credits for. You might also be able to retake the assessment to get a higher score.

If you happen to fail and need to take remedial classes, its not a bad situation. You will need a strong foundation in math and reading in nursing.
