Question about ADN prg @ forsyth tech & teas test

by Bk5896

Okay initially i decided to do nursing straight out of high school, i took a semester or two of basic classes & then switched to college transfer. Well this summer is suddenly hit me that i really wanted to do nursing, so here i am again!! I then decided to shoot for ADN program spring 2010 because i had pretty much all my pre-reqs except for A&P. I then started to think that it was highly unlikely i'd get into the spring program so i was gonna try for fall 2010. Well a couple days ago (a month before the spring 2010 deadline) i figured i'd might as well try to get into spring program because it wouldnt hurt to try. So i guess what my question is is i have about 51 ranking points from my prereqs and i'm getting ready to take the teas test sept 24th. I know people who have gotten into the program without having A&P, they just did very well on there teas test. So I am just curious if there is anyone out there that this has happened to? I called about it and they seemed to focus more on the teas test score, as far as getting in. She said the ranking points "helped" but weren't like the main focus? I've been spazzing about this all week! so if anyone can help me i would appreciate it
thanksss

Hi there!

I was also worried about getting in without A&P. I am shooting for Fall 2010 now, since I got into BIO-165 at DCCC this semester. It's virtually impossible to get into the class at Forsyth Tech. Either way, it's a combination of the TEAS and other ranking points. One won't get you in without the other. The highest you can score on the TEAS is 99, and the average person accepted into the ADN program at FTCC has a 150 rank. I recommend making around 80-85 on the TEAS and making all A's in all the pre-reqs with the exception of BIO-165 and 166, and you should be good!
