question about the NET

Published

Hi everyone!

First I want to say how glad I am that I came across this website...it is great! My question is about the NET exam. I was wondering if any of you could give me an idea of what kind of material is on it? I believe that it is math and reading comprehension...but what kind of math? General math or algebra....and how difficult was the exam? I am currently at Schoolcraft and have four more pre-reqs to take so I want to prepare myself for the test.

Thanks for your input!!

I ordered a PREP-NET exam book to help me study for it. I hear the test consist of general math (addition, substraction, fractions, percentages, division, etc) with about five basic algebra questions on it. However, don't quote me on this, this is only what I have read. If you find any additional information, please share.

I took the NET test at Henry Ford Community College back in 2003. It really isn't that bad. I also ordered a NET testing study guide and I would highly suggest you do the same. The math was basic (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, decimals, and some basic algebra - order of operations).

I purchased Kaplan's NET study guide (Amazon tossed in Cliffs NET study guide for a few bucks more) and it covers reading comprehension, vocab & spelling, mathematics and science (biology, chemistry and physics). Although I hear science is not on the exam.

Double thanks for sharing that the algebra consists of PEMDAS! Now, I don't have to study the harder algebra...
