I can't believe it, I actually failed the math section on the NET. I am terrible at math so I really don't know why I am the least bit surprised.
Anyway, I only failed it by 2% so the school has offered to let me re-test in math. I really hope that I can pass it this time.(it will be a written test this time)
I did great on all of the other areas, and did pass some of the math sections but I scored just a bit too low on fractions, number conversions and algebra.
I have to call on Tues to set up an appt. I plan on April 6th. I don't really want to wait that long but I do want time to learn that darn math.
The NET Study Guide is exactly the same as the test. I couldn't believe that itwas down to the same number of each type of questions for the math portion.
Take the 2 practice tests, check answers, and don't freak out. I began to panic during the test when I couldn't remember (get this) how to divide and get the remainder. A very easy thing to do, but sometimes we get so caught up in the anxiety that we forget that we know it.
If you can't get an answer, move on to the next question. I promise getting one right will give you the confidence you need to keep going.
I sorry to here that, I failed my NET too but only b/c i was so cocky and anxious that I didn't really study. I failed b/c I took too long and didn't get to finish. If I would have finished, I would've barely passed. It is hard to learn to do that stuff without a calculator when your teachers teach it to you with a calculator. I got post-college on my english but middle school on my math which made me feel like s***. Good luck, I retake my exam on March 30!!!
Let me know how you did and what the test was like when you get back home. Good Luck.:balloons:

I took the test for Sentara School of Health Professions. The test was exactly the same as the one that I took in January. I still didn't study like I should have (yes I admit that I am lazy) but I still passed. I got post-high school in reading and high school in math (i know i am repeating myself all over this website) Anyways good luck, and don't sweat it b/c you will pass!! By the way, i noticed that you are in VA Beach so I'm wondering what school you are trying for? I also passed the entrance exam for medical careers institute, just in case you are going for that school. Their exam was reading, math, english, and science. Good luck again
Check out MATH.COM, you have to keep practice in order to really grasp the information. You see math is not like other subjects, where you can study and memorize stuff. with Math, the best way to learn the material is through practice. Check out the site, and do the exercises of the area you are struggling with. You can do it.
Hey! I am and I new here to the site. I wanted to give you a few websites that I used to study for the NET test. I didn't get the study guide because it actually got lost in the mail and didn't arrive in enough time for me to study so I sent it back. Anyway I took the NET this morning and scored 88% on the math and 79% on the reading. These 2 sites helped A LOT! They were just like what was on the NET!!!
I can't believe they ar giving you a second chance, that is so unheard of! You usually have to wait till the next testing session, which is usually in a yr. I took the NET and the study guide helped me a lot. You can get that book in various places. I have a copy of it. I know it is probably too late but you can have it if you are interested. Best of Luck studying. Math may seem difficult but just relax and it will come to you, it's simple once you get the general rules down.
I am sorry to hear that you failed the NET exam. I am also trying to study for the NET test myself. I didn't take the test as yet because I am trying to make sure I review all the areas of math again.
Question: Do they ask you science questions also?
Just wanted to let you know u are not alone. I have to pass this test! Did you say I should buy the study guide to the NET?
