confidence.
The National League for Nursing , known as the NLN® PAX, is a standardized entrance exam for prospective nursing students. The exam is designed to evaluate the academic aptitude and understanding of essential subjects required for success in nursing education programs.
The Pre-Admission Examination (PAX) is divided into three main sections: Verbal Ability, Mathematics, and Science, with 160 multiple-choice questions. The Verbal section includes questions on reading comprehension and vocabulary. The Mathematics section covers basic calculations, word problems, and algebra, while the Science section tests knowledge in biology, chemistry, physics, and earth science. Candidates have a total of three hours to complete the exam.
Nursing schools use the PAX scores as part of their admissions criteria, with many requiring a minimum score for acceptance into their programs. The test is recognized as a reliable predictor of a student's potential for success in nursing school.
Preparation for the PAX is crucial, and candidates are encouraged to review content areas, practice with sample questions, and take practice tests to build familiarity with the test format. The PAX score is typically valid for two years, but candidates should check with their specific nursing program for detailed policies.
