PAX Test?

I have been on track to begin an LPN program this fall with the idea of transitioning to RN later, but now I am leaning toward a local ADN program instead -- I spoke to an advisor this morning and I have an excellent chance of getting in this fall, even though it's already March.

I downloaded the applications and see that a PAX (?) test is required. I am at a loss -- I see references to NET around but not PAX. Can anyone shed any light? I go a little green at the idea of having to take a test just to get in, but I will if I have to. Anyone who has taken it and can tell me what to prepare for, I will be grateful -- thank you in advance!

The PAX-NLN exam consist of a verbal, math, and science (biology, A&P, chemistry, physics) section. It's all multiple choice and you have a hour for each section. They offer a study guide for the test that includes practice tests as well as a review section for all of the different components. You can look for it in bookstores or you can get it at Amazon.Com. Here's the link.

Good luck!

Thanks, both of you. I think now I am terrified.:uhoh21:

It's really not that bad. It basically all high school level. For me the hardest part was the science because I hadn't studied some of the subjects in over 6 years, but I would just recommend getting the study guide and then if you still feel you need more of a foundation in the material, get a cliff notes book in whatever subject you feel weak in. Good luck!
