Required GPA is 2.75. So i guess should be okay.

I finally took this exam and I scored a 78 first try. I am just going to put a review since there is not a whole lot of information pertaining to this exam. By all means these are my opinions. # 1. Math I scored a whooping 96 on this section. I got one question wrong. I am not sure which question I got wrong for i was so sure that I had passed all of them. The book I used to prepare me for this section was the Kaplan Nurse Dosage Calculation book. I found this book at my local library. This is the only book I used for this section. I also looked at a lot of problems on quizlet that were similar to what was in this book. No Algebra, Geometry or stuff like that on the exam. #2. Reading I scored a 71 in this section. Please Note that English is a 2nd Language to me and when I learnt English I did British English which is a whole different ball game to American English in terms of grammar and spellings. I was really nervous about this section. The book I used for this section is the Kaplan Nursing Admissions Book. This book did really well in the TIPS it offered on how to answer this section. I practiced all the reading questions in that book and read over and over the Tips and i think the TIPS are great. That is all I used this book for #3 Writing I scored a 73 in this section. Not Bad for a non English speaker. I did a lot of online grammar questions. I used Khan Academy SAT questions and it helped. Somehow during my search for free writing questions I came across a website that gives free writing questions to those who are applying for government jobs in NJ . I cannot remember the name of the site. But that site helped me a lot in terms of where to place sentences and words. If i find the site I will come back and post it. #4 Science I scored a 65 in this section. Ladies and Gentleman I have a BS in Biological Sciences and I think I am pretty good in Biology and Human Physiology. But this section just through me off completely. I have no advise for this section. Know blood pathway through the heart. That is probably the only thing that was straight forward everything else I do not know where they get their questions. The questions are not school book material but are more for people with clinical experience ( my opinion). The book I used was Cliff notes. The only reason why i am giving my background to each section is so that you can measure up as you decide how to study. Anyway I got accepted for Spring 2016. Good luck to all of you.

Has anyone taken the Kaplan recently and any advise you might have?.I cannot find any information pertaining to this exam especially the Science portion. Any pointers in terms of how to study for this exam will greatly be appreciated.

I just got my rejection letter today. I had A&P II in progress when I applied. I am a second degree student. I am very heartbroken over this because if I had known that was the case I would have really pushed myself to have done the A&P sooner. It has really thrown me off. I had a lot of clinical hours as well as volunteer hours. I had a 3.9 GPA on my pre-requisites and an overall 3.7 GPA. I am sorry to say this but I am really torn apart.

The wait is killing me. I was only left wiith the A&P 2 I hope that does not affect my application.

I applied to and am hoping for the best.
