Which exam is it? the NET, or the HESI, or the TEAS or the NLN, or something else? If you can tell us which test it is, we can help you prepare better.
i am considering two schools offering the b.s. in nursing. one of them requires an NLN exam and the other requires NET.

Hi do a search for threads with NET in the title and you will get some very good information. I took the NET last month.
hey marathonGirl,
all the best on your exam. Could you tell me about it? what are some of the topics covered in the NET?
Hi - it is reading comprehension and math. The math is easy but the reading comp. can be tricky.
Go to the ERI website and order their study guide - it is exactly like the test. You can also buy a practice test on their site to do online. Did you search for other threads?

Hi,
I had to take the NLN. It is comprised of math, vocabulary, and science. There is a book that is specifically designed to prepare you for this test. I found that many of the questions on my test came right out of the study guide. Unfortunately I can't tell you the name of the book because I lent it out, but the school bookstore should sell it.
Good luck!

Those are two completely different tests. The NET test is math and comprehension. The HESI looks like it is those plus science.
I took the NET and didn't find it to hard, passed the first time even though I ran out of time on the comp. part.
hi tccjknv,
could you tell me the name of the book that you lent out? maybe i could purchase it at a bookstore.
I looked it up on my school's website. It is called, National League for Nursing Review Guide for RN Pre-Entrance Exam. The website did not list the author, so I am still unsure on that.
