Pax rn test

futureRN26 · Feb 9, 2014

Anyone have any tips for this test? I take it in 4 days! Freaking out. I bought a Kaplan study guide for nursig exams and also the NLN pax iPhone app but I've only been studying for a couple weeks. Help!

Hey how did you manage to get a 140 I've been doing well on the practice test in the red nln review book I just hope I do as well on the real thing

Hi! Well I will tell you that the whole time I took it I felt as I I were failing . But I tried to move quickly and efficiently through the test. I probably would have scored even higher if I didn't run out of time on the math section. Math isn't y strongest subject so I usually need to take a little extra time. It's my downfall. Other than that I just tie to choose the best answer by eliminating the obviously wrong ones. Or if I had no idea like on the chem and physics I just guessed! Simple as that . Keep practicing! What's the minimum score for the program you are applying to?

Minimum score I would say for my school is 130. I took it once before and score a 98. This is my second time taking it on February 27th. I've been practicing from the red nln book over an over again and I've been getting 100% on the practice exams i I just hope I do well on the real thing

You will! Sounds like you are doing great ! I didn't take any practice tests except the iPhone ones but I heard the practice test are harder than the real thing so

Do you guys by any chance know if you retake the PAX exam do they look at your old score as well? or do they only see your newest score on the PAX?

Futurern, yes McGraw hills it's 9.99 in the App Store . Xhelena, I'm not sure because my school only allows it once during an application period. They only look at the current score at my school
