How comfortable do you feel with your grasp of the material studied?
If you have a good understanding it will not matter what the questions are.
You will do good!
If your only getting a few wrong on the practice tests, don't worry about that (really). You can go back and try to understand the material for the incorrect questions.
Lets say you saw the actual questions from the test, but they changed it later, and you didn't know the material. You would be in big trouble.
If you feel you know the material well, you will do fine. :)
Good luck.

The material covered on the practice questions will be the same general material but they will NOT be the same questions. People who take these exams are not allowed to discuss any contents of the exam or they will face expulsion from their programs for it is considered academic dishonesty.
Relax and study......don't let your nerves get to you!

It's a general aptitude test (Tes of essential academic skills), so what you have taken so far in BIO, ENG and MTH should be enough to pass it and score well. I am bad at Math so I made up for it in the English portion thankfully. And my scores must have been good because I start the ADN in August. Let us know how you did! I'm sure you will do fine.
