NLN Question

I recently took the NLN and got a composite score of 68. I found the test really hard and should have studied a lot more. What does this mean though? I was told i needed a composite of 50. can someone explain? thanks :)

    Your composite score will be the score on the left, it is a weighted score. The numbers on the right side are percentiles so that means you have done better than that many percent of people.

    If your school required a composite of 50 and you exceeded then you will at least make the minimum requirements.

    I just took the NLN as well (and I won't share what I got unless you ask). The compsite score range from 0-200 with most falling in the 50-150 range. I know my school won't look at you if your under 100 and often-times it's higher then that. It all depends on your school.

    My school doesn't let you retest or retake any of the pre-reqs
