me!! I applied! I started another thread about it, but only one other person responded. I'm super nervous! What are your grades like? Have you taken the teas test? I'm hoping to be invited to take it in March!

hi! My grades are ok I think GPA about 3.6. My teas exam was horrible though. I didn't do so good, I only scored 70

how about your grades?

Did you apply to any other colleges??

I have a bachelors in another subject so my overall GPA is 3.6 as well. My core sciences are 3.8 (Because I stupidly decided to take anatomy last summer when I was 9 months pregnant and had a baby a week before the final). I didn't apply to any other schools because I have 4 kids (6,4,2, and 7 months) and I wanted to stay close to home. I haven't taken the TEAS yet.... I'm hoping to be invited to take it in April at COC! Did you apply anywhere else?

Feels great to know I'm not the only one with kids attempting this crazy journey! you don't know how happy I am to hear you have more than 1 child. I also have children...3 of them with my youngest being only 6 months (we were pregnant around the same time last year lol)

i also applied at Moorpark,Pierce, Glendale and Pasadena. i really want to get in soon, this year if possible!!!!

It is really nice to know there are other moms applying! I know it will be difficult with kids (which is why I'm ok if I don't get in), but my husband is super supportive and only works 3 days a week so he is around to help with the kids which is nice! If I don't get in this semester, I may apply at more schools for the spring. Is COC your first choice? How old are you other kids?

honestly Im ok with anywhere I applied at they are all pretty much the same distance, I feel like Im right in the middle. I would love to go to coc because I know people that have gone there and say nothing but good things about the program. But i don't know anyone that has gone to the other ones to give me feedback. I'm sure they are good though.

My other children are 8 and 2. I have my hands full but yes thank goodness for supportive husbands! Without mine I wouldn't be where I'm at today! I hope we don't need to reapply and get in this time around!!

I really hope you get in! And I really hope I get in! haha. I'm wondering how many spots are merit-based and how many are in the lottery? I'm so nervous! the next 6 weeks are going to be long!

I got an email today inviting me to take the teas. I already took the teas but just so everyone checks their emails!!

I am taking the TEAS on April 14 at COC. I'm nervous about it. I got a few apps on my phone and the study manual from ATI. What did you use to study for the test?

javalos1 · Mar 20, 2017

How are you all studying for the TEAS? I am also taking the TEAS April 14th. Hope to see you all there. :)

I bought the ATI manual and practice tests, and downloaded a bunch of apps so I could practice questions on the go. Pocket Prep has been super helpful to me, but I'm still pretty nervous!
