Hey guy's I'm taking the NLN Rn-pre entrance exam on Tuesday, any advice?

Published

Okay, so I know I have to do well on the nln to make it into the nursing program at my school (Columbus technical college in Columbus georgia in case you were wondering) I've been studying really hard for the last three days. I've been going off of the NLN review guide for the rn-pre entrance exam third edition by Jones and Bartlet along with the practice cd that came with the book. What I want to know is has anyone else used the book, and if so how well did it prepare you for the actual exam? Were any of the questions in the review book on the actual exam? And is there anything else I should look at or read over before next Tuesday? Any comments, or tips would be greatly appreciated, thank's for taking the time to read my post, hope you have a good day.

I took the PAX RN last Spring. I already have a bachelors degree, but taking the test allowed me the quickest route to applying. I start the program Spring 2013. I thought the test was kind of hard but I got a 99% (not a raw score, but based on the other people taking the test at the same time). My raw scores were like 99 on verbal, 90 on math and just a 78 on science! My test - and I understand there are more than one - had a lot of questions about sound waves, converting measurements of temperature, and other things I had not seen since high school 25 years ago! I borrowed a study guide book and did all of the practice tests. I don't know what I would have done without the study book! Good luck!
