Holme LPN Program

Published

I was just wondering if anyone knows if everyone that meets the minimum criteria gets to take the TABE test at Holmes? I have an 18 on my ACT which was taken before 1989 so it converts to a 20 on current testing scale. I have a 3.75 GPA at Holmes, but only a 3.25 overall if you include all college coursework. I have taken all pre reqs for the ADN except Micro and Speech. I applied for the evening/weekend ADN program, but was rejected. I am hoping to have a better chance of getting into the LPN program. I really want to ace the TABE test, but am wondering if I will even be picked to take it. I am hoping someone knows how the selection to take the test goes. Any help would be great!:clown:

They say the TABE test and the Compass are basically the same so I found the following link to practice the TABE test on here on an older post:

I have been going through these questions and refreshing my skills. I hope this helps you.

Ok now I am completely freaking out about the Compass. I searched for practice tests on the web and found tests full of college algebra, geometry and Trig. Someone please tell me it is not that bad. I expected algebra, but not Trig.

I applied for the ADN program along with the LPN will I be disqualified by doing so? I was trying to see which program I would get into..

Jg24 im not for sure about the compass having trig because of other users on the site saying its basic math and reading try not to worry so much about it just pray and study.. I try to think of it like this if God says its for me then it is if he says different then it wasnt for me.. Happy Valentine's DAY!!!!!!!!

Have you applied at any other schools?

No I haven't applied to other schools. I am from Kosciusko so Holmes is the closest to me. I read on another post that you applied at Ridgeland right? I applied for LPN at Goodman and ADN at Grenada. That may be why I got my letter and you didn't. Good Luck!!!

Jg24 I tried switching my application over to the Goodman campus because the school it close to me since I live in Yazoo City, but howevere they said I was unable to do that. Goodman was my second choice ;( Good luck to you also!!

Well I got my rejection letter for the Grenada ADN program today. :crying2: This is the 2nd time. I am getting so frustrated. I am going to study really hard so I can make a high score on the Compass so maybe they will let me in the LPN program. I hope you get better news!!
