So I am going to info sessions for 2 colleges here in Adelaide (RDNS and ANMFSA) in early May for a June start and while there I have to sit a literacy and numeracy test to see if i am eligible to entry.

Has anybody taken these tests? Are they hard? Should I study beforehand? What should I study? Does anyone know the pass mark?

I am really nervous and not sure where to start. I really really want to get into one of these courses so i cant stuff this up!

Hi there. I recently took the vetassess with a pass. If English is your first language then you will find literacy and writting fine. I did study maths before the exam. Just brush up on things like decimals, fractions, percentage, BODMAS etc. Im happy to email you some great study material if you like.

you need to get a min score of 20/40 for numeracy + literacy and i think its just a satistfactory for writting.

My score was 28/40 maths and 38/40 literacy.. not bad for someone who didn't complete year 12.

Its all multiple choice but time does go fast so dont waste time on questions you dont understand just take the best guess.

GOODLUCK!!!

Cant help with the test sorry! But was wondering what RDNS and the ANF charge to do their course? Does it come under vet fee? Id really like to do it but cant afford upfront costs.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply Danii- that would be amazing if you could send me your study material :) cowen_jasmine@hotmail.com

I don't think either of them offer vet fee help unfortunately. They do offer payment plans though I think which is what i would be doing. The only one I can find that does do vet fee is careers australia but it is much more expensive like 13 and a half thousand.

Hi Danii,
I also was looking at the post and I know you posted it months ago but I was wondering if you may be able to email me the study material. I will be sitting the test in WA so I'm not sure if the tests are different but I would really appreciate the help.

Thanks Danii

Kate

I've seen your post and its way back few months ago. I will be seating for the test in October. I was wondering if you could still send me a copy of your study material. It would be a great help for me and be very grateful if you can send it to me. You are such a nice person to be willing to help others and share things that can help us to study. Please kindly send it to my email address if you have the chance. My email address is jalcantara72@dodo.com.au. Thanks heaps in advance.
