Testing Services

As faculty, you want students who excel in your nursing program. Performance on the PAX-RN qualifies students for admission to nursing schools, but mastering the material prepares them for future success in their academic carers - and beyond. Empirical evidence shows that PAX-RN helps improve retention rates and is a valid predictor of academic performance for all types of RV programs.

The PAX-RN measures three academic proficiencies: verbal ability, mathmatics, and science. One hour is allowed for each subtest; approximately 3.5 hours are needed for administering this computer-based or paper-based examination.

Be confident that your students who have taken the test are better equipped for the rigors of the nursing curriculum. Know how admitted students stack up against the competition.

  • High performance on this standardized instrument facilities admission decisions by providing a common basis for evaluating applicants' academic ability.
  • Test results show how applicants' scores compare with those of other nursing school applicants in the normative sample.
