who all has taken the NET?

Published

Math isn't my strongest point so I'm a little worried about this section of the test. Can anyone recommend a good study guide? I'd kill to see some examples of the math questions.

Here's a place where you can practice.

This test was no big deal. According to my school when I took it several years ago, they said that the scores didn't have any impact on whether or not we made into the nursing program. WHY then did we have to take it?!

Since then they've d/c'd it.

You can test and evaluate yourself at this website. I personally wouldn't spend money on a book to study.

yeah, i took it just for admission points.....It wasnt a requirement.......just points...

I am not very proficient in math either, but found the NET to be rather simple in regards to math. I would be more worried about the vocabulary as I found it to be a bit more challenging than the math. And I do very good in vocabulary, but struggled a little in the NET.

I took the NET a week ago (required for admission). The math is pretty basic. Decimals (sp), fractions, percentages and converting from one to the other and multiplying, adding, subtracting and dividing them.

you guys are wonderful! that makes me feel so much better. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in English so I'm not too worried about that part, vocab. has always been my strong point. But, if it is basic math like we did in high school (eight years ago) then hopefully I can hack it, since the NET is an admission requirement. I will check out that practice site, you all have calmed my nerves so much! thanks! :)
