Title: Has anyone taken the NAPT this year? Share some experiences and thoughts?
Post by: apricohtyl on Apr 19, 2014, 08:04
Using the search function, I can only seem to find experiences and commentary on the NAPT from 2010 or early. Could anyone that has taken the NAPT more recently (2013 - 2014) give me a more up-to-date version of what to expect? Even my recruiters had mixed things to say about the test.

Between the wide variation of things I've heard from different recruiters, and various 2+ years outdated posts on this forum, I really don't have a clear picture of just what I might expect on the NAPT.

I was told by a recruiter that it is 50/50 Physics and calculus, but I've been told elsewhere that there is little to no calculus on the exam.

Any up-to-date clarification would be very much appreciated.

Thank you, I overlooked that post!

That particular post has me a bit nervous now.

Just In case you haven't taken the test yet. That link is accurate though I'd say the difficulty on the test really depends on you. I took the napt two days ago for the first time without studying and scored a 64. the person on that link scored a 94 on their asavb and I only scored a 93 which tells me that maybe his strengths were different. It all depends on what you are best at and like. if algebra and trig lvl math, basic chem, and basic physics is in your strengths category you are probably fine. I've got an associates degree including a lot of chem classes and I love math...so for me I feel the NAPT score was accurate. If any of those subjects are not your strengths then study for sure.

There will be no calculus on the NAPT. IIRC from others postings, trig will be the highest it goes.
