Anyone received anything from SMC nursing department. On their website, it says in March. I am just wondering if anyone received anything. Thanks! 

the NLN study guide for NEX seems basic, especially the science. Well good luck. Maybe will be classmates who knows. 

It does but the tea's exam had alot of info to study as well so I think it may be the same format/questions, hopefully we pass our exam and become classmates! Wish you best of luck as well!! 

Do you guys know when we will be notified if we have been accepted into the program? 

@B.LO I think once we take the exam next week we will be notified 

Did anyone took the NLN exam today ? 😩 I have mines scheduled tomorrow.

I took it today! It was honestly easier than I was expecting. The vocab was the hardest part for me, I didn't really study for that part and there were a lot of words I didn't know. Maybe take an extra look at videos about that section! Math was fairly easy, a lot of ratio questions. The science was mostly anatomy/phisio and life science, some nutrition stuff at the end. Overall not bad! I got a 297 

Thank youuuu! I'm so nervous I will make sure to look the vocab part 😭 congrats!! Thats a goood score !! 🫶🏻

I got 156 I think the math I studied mainly geometry bc I thought that was going to appear more and I had no questions about that it was mostly conversation and graph 😭 

 

congrats on getting accepted! I'm gonna keep checking my emails LOL

@Jennfr Thanks. I've been rejected a lot of times! Don't be discouraged. Just keep pushing.
