Nyc nursing school entrance exams help!!!!

[NYC Nurse Wannabe]

I can't seem to get into any Nursing School in the NYC.

I 've taken Beth Israel's NLN in April 09' and Adelphi's NET in Dec. 09'. I have a 3.5 GPA and all of my pre-reqs are complete (all A's and B's in all pre-reqs). I'm afraid my Nursing Entrance Exam scores are keeping me from getting into these programs. I have studied constantly on my own, but I feel that I just can't do well on these type of exams. My results from these exams were not that good. Does anyone know of any tutors, prep courses or just some good advice for these Nursing School Entrance Exams in the New York/New Jersey area??? PLEASE HELP!!

You received your results from the test right? Look to see what your weaknesses were and focus on that. I had to go to my children's 8th grade school teacher for help with algebra and the only way you're going to learn those words is by memorizing the dictionary, lol. I found the test to be hard, especially because it is timed and if you get stuck on one question too long you're screwed. I did all the practice tests in the study guide over and over again and timed myself while I was doing them. This really helped me the day of the test. I didn't run out of time on any section. I'm still waiting for my results, it's been two and a half weeks and nothing yet. Do you have any children, neices or nephews in junior high school? Maybe one of their teachers can help you? You can also buy those dummy books...I mean algebra for dummies, chemistry for dummies, stuff like that. I hear they are good. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful but if I do come across a class or tutoring site I will let you know. Good luck!
