Hey!
So I went and took my exam this past friday, the 5th of June..
First let me say this, I used the Admission Assessment Exam Review 3rd Edition... it is very helpful, but also use other resources as well.. any biology, a&p, ect. books.
The exam wasn't as bad as I thought,
Reading - Not bad, just take your time to read each passage.
Math - Basic math, there is a calculator the computer provides for you.. very helpful.
Vocab - Just like the book for the most part, if there was a work I didn't, I used context clues that helped me answer them.
Bio - Just know the phases of Mitosis and Meiosis, and basic cell funitions
Chemistry - Was def. a subject I was nervous about but I actually did the best in this subject. It was pretty basic and not too detailed questions.
A&P - Know locations of bones, and if something is Distal, lateral, inferior, ect... things like that.
I had to take all subjects but Physics.
Hope to find out if I got accepted or not within the next few weeks.
Feel free to ask me any questions but trust me, I was stressing trying to prep for this exam.. but DO NOT STRESS! Seriously, it isn't as bad as we expect it to be.
Plus, if you already know the basics of these subjects, just review review review. And you'll do fine!

Most of the words in the vocab section were on my test buy some were not so definitely study the book vocab section and also another source will help! But the book was amazing and helped me a lot!

Trying hard not to stress too bad! Are there a lot of element based questions or is it more general? I'm trying to learn the table and groups but it seems like so much information that might not be useful! Thanks for the review it makes me feel a little better 😀

The only subject that are detailed is a&p really.. The others were basic. What campus are you applying too? Hope this helps!

Hey, thanks for the info provided. I'm taking the admissions assessment test and got my lpn license 2 years ago so I might need to refresh some material so i decided to get the study material. Do you remember the name of the book?
