You will receive a total or \u201cmain\u201d score which includes the individual scores from all four sections (Science, Reading, Mathematics, and English &#038; Language Arts). You will also receive the separate scores for each section. Typically, a program requires you to earn a score of <strong>at least 60% to 70%<\/strong>. But, it is highly competitive to gain admission into a nursing program, so students are encouraged to aim for higher than the program\u2019s requirements.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<br \/>\n<div itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"editor\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\" class=\"author-bio\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" itemprop=\"image\" class=\"author-image\" height=\"127\" width=\"127\" alt=\"Aaron Lanni profile pic\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image_2024-12-11_124906662.png\"><div class=\"author-text\"><p class=\"author-name\">Edited by <span itemprop=\"name\">Aaron Lanni<\/span><\/p><div class=\"author-desc\"><p>Aaron is the content manager and lead editor for Mometrix Academy.
