Has anyone take the NLN-PAX RN exam? I have to take on the 28th and I'm very nervous about it!! I'm curious how difficult it is!!

I won't tell you it's a cake walk but it's not the worst thing in the world. SAT tests are harder IMO. I studied for about a month by photocopying some pages from the study guide at the library. I also downloaded an iPhone app from McGraw hill that helped I think because I'm always on my phone . I felt unprepared while taking it but I just chose the best answer I could justify. On the ones I had no clue about like chem or physics I just guessed. Still scored 140 which is in the 93rd percentile. Some of the questions on the tests are not counted against you which helps. Any other questions feel free to message me good luck

My friend just took it and made a 91. She made in the 90 + % so I wouldn't worry too much. Just use the nln pax rn review book. She said it helped her. Good luck!!!
That's the book I got!! I'm hoping I score that high! The director of nursing at my college said that we only had to make a 50% on it but it can only look good to have it higher!! Lol

I couldn't get an test time to take the NLN, so I thought that was that. I received a phone call the night before, saying that a test slot had opened up the next morning. I went and took it without any studying. Passed with a 93%. It's not hard, but you'll feel like you failed coming out of it. Study up on math and make sure you can do it without a calculator. Best of luck to you!
I took the ACT today and think I did fairly good on it!! I could've completed the math on it by hand! I'm hoping I do good on this!! What type math is on it? What's the time for each section?
I'm going to start studying tomorrow!! If I could make in the 90's, that would be awesome!!!
