    You would need to check with your local schools of nursing- they would be able to let you know if they require SAT or ACT scores prior to admission. Many schools will not require these if you have been out of high school for more than 5 years, and in place, they will have you take placement tests to see if you need to take any remedial classes in math or english.

    Again, you'd have to contact the school to find out their specific requirements, but most colleges will require you to take at least one college-level algebra class- you can usually take it during your first year of school, before you start in the nursing program.

    The three community colleges I have went to did not require ACT or SAT. Without any college course you probably will have to take a math and english test so they will know were to place you. I think college level algebra is the highest you'll need. Most math you need in nursing is basic algebra. Best thing to do is ask the admission office. If you get a BSN, a stats course it probably required.
