Hello to all!
I just got my score from my NLN PAX-PN and my composite score is 103
I feel like i did so bad! I usually hear people who get in the L.P.N programs average a 120.
Two schools I'm applying for have a minimum score of 95... I'm at 103... Do i have a shot????
Thanks everyone!!!

If the school says 95 is the minimum and you're over the min then I don't see a problem. It depends on what type of school you're applying to - i.e. private, community college, vo-tech, etc. In my state the community colleges go by a points system where they consider elements of your profile such as grades in prereqs or coreqs, prior degrees or health care certs and preadmission test scores if it's required. For votech they look at your profile plus references, etc., and there is an interview. Private schools - they take people until their classes are full. If they have available spaces, then I don't think you can be turned down unless it's for a non-academic issue.

Depends upon how many seats are available, how competitive the program is. There may be more expectations besides just that exam that may assist you. Good luck! You may still make it.
