Ivy Tech Bloomington, Indiana Nursing Program

[John47408]

Just curious to see if there are any people out there applying to the Fall Nursing Program. I will be applying for the first time here soon. I have taken both Psychology and English which I got A's in both. I am currently enrolled in the A/P 101 online this semester. So the only thing I have left to do is take the Teas 5 Exam. I am terrified of this test and worried about if I can even pass it much less get a high enough score to get accepted. I am a non traditional student in my 40's and this is the first time that I have been to college. That in itself is overwhelming for me. But so far I have done well. I dropped out of school in the 8th grade and took my GED a few months later and barely passed it but I did. That is why I am so worked up about the TEAS because I have never taken any Algebra,Chemistry, or Biology which I hear there is a lot of that on these tests. I have looked at every study guide they have out there. Hard to cram 4 years of high school in a few months time. I hope to get into the Nursing program for the fall but if I don't then I at least hope to get offered the LPN class. I will apply and accept any campus in the state. Just curious to see what others experience has been like. I am planning my first attempt at the TEAS exam in a couple weeks. Wish me luck! I know that I will need it.

Go to the Indiana Nursing boards. There are ALOT of fall 2016 applicants u can discuss with. Also, chamberlains grad rate is 10% & NCLEX pass rate is 98% BC if only 10% of people graduate that's usually 4 people who end up taking boards lol. I wouldn't go there. Shoot for ivy tech. Go to ATI.COM and purchase the practise assessments and do those. The science will be a challenge for u . some people do great but its really random. I'd focus on doing extremely well on the other 3 subjects good luck
