practice NETs?

Hi,
Does anyone know any sort of website which offers free NET practice tests?
Thanks

Not really. I bought the study guide off of Ebay. However, you can purchase the NET Study Guide from Eriworld.com.

It helps....There are two reading quizzes, and 2 math quizzes. You have to watch your own time, obviously, but it gives you an idea.

I did the quizzes once, several months before the NET. Then did it 1 month before, then again the day before the NET.

The NET is simple math, with some simple Algebra. The reading part is the most difficult, especially if you are not fluent in reading the English language, especially at a fast pace.

Over all, it is not extremely difficult.

Good luck to you!! :)

Well, it is a timed test in a way. You really only need to spend about a minute on each question.

I didn't take the ACT, but I took the SAT years ago. If the SAT is anything like the ACT, I would say those tests are MUCH MUCH MUCH harder than the NET.

When I took the NET I searched the web and found a few similar prep tests, but the best review is the NET book, Its a small blue book, expensive for such a small and thin book, but it is exactly like the test. If you practice with that book, there will be no surprises.

:idea: Hint: I used a kitchen timer to prepare, and I was usually done at leat ten minutes before it went off. When I took the actual test, it was on computer so I didn't have to wait for the time for each section, the computer did all that, I finished 50 minutes before time was up; So I think the time they give you is ample.

Gool Luck :)

That is exactly how I've been studying for the NET. Like you, I've studied the book and used a timer to time myself so if sounds like I should be ready for this.
