Kennesaw Accelerate BSN


Hi! Would anyone who has been accepted to the Kennesaw Accelerated BSN be willing to share their GPA and TEAS Score? I am applying for Fall 2010 and am a little worried about what I need to be competitive.
Thanks!

I promise to reply to your response sometime next week when I have all in the info in front of me. I wanted someone to supply the same info for me when I was applying. I was just accepted into the program for spring 2010.

my pre-req GPA was 3.2. It's been a while and I don't have the sheet in front of me, but I think my actual TEAS score was around 90, which was the 95th percentile for KSU students. Hope that helps!

This was very helpful! Thanks! I took the TEAS this morning and am feeling OK about it. I thought if I had an idea as to what they were looking for in order to get asked to interview, it would make me feel a little better!

The KSU interview isn't much different than you typical job interview where they ask you a few questions about your history and throw in a couple situational questions. There's no way to really prepare for it....just be relaxed and honest. When I went in there I assumed that it would be some sort of hardcore government type of interview where the interviewers are as cold as ice, but it wasn't that at all. They were pretty warm and nice.

Ok So here are my stats:
-Graduate of UGA Biology Degree (gpa:3.67) my transcruipt is tainted by two C's which were in Calc II and Genetics (I took classes @ UGA & Gainesville state)
-Teas: 84% (i could give u the breakdown if needed, my highest was science and my lowest was english) I only studied for the test for a week (but, I just finished A&P I II )
-out off all the pre-req required I had 9 A's and 3 B's (ENGL I, ENGL II, & Calc I)
- Also, to practice for the interview I found questions throughout this website and came up with atleast 100 questions and answered all of them. In the interview they ask a lot of questions. Luckily I was not asked the moral question (ie: name a time in which you felt your morals have been compromised?) b/c I did not have an answer for that.
- well feel free to ask me if you need more info! Hope THIS info helps!

Thanks for all of the information! I was pleasantly surprised with my TEAS score, so hopefully I will get invited to interview. I wish my GPA was a little higher (3.4 undergrad BBA, 3.6 pre-reqs), but the more hours you have, the less it moves in any direction! What was the timeframe from the application deadline to getting an interview invite? I am expecting it to be several months!

it depends which semester, but the wait's usually around a month for an invite.
