What TEAS score does your school require?

Ahh. Our school limits to 2 attempts. I am hoping to do a lot better on the second. I made a 95 on the online assessment so I was shocked to get an 80.6 on the real one. I think I may have just had a bad testing day. My daughter was up all night the night before the test so that may have played a part. I am trying to get volunteer experience lined up before my interview (our school has a 1 yr wait after application so I have a year to gain experience). Do you think taking Spanish would help me as well? I need to do whatever I can to be more competitve since my TEAS isn't great. I do have 2 yrs of French already but it isn't like we have a lot of French people here!

Good luck!!!

I am in Georgia so it would probably be easier for you to retake the TEAS than move LOL Here Georgia Perimeter College and Georgia State University take the NET. Both are switching over to the TEAS next year though.

I am glad I don't live in CA! It is hard to believe 87.7 is substandard there. Maybe it isn't the same test?! The avg TEAS score nationally is 74. Then again I don't know anyone personally (besides myself...sigh...) that has made under an 85. I am almost 30 though and haven't taken any maths or sciences (other than anatomy) in over 10 years.

I think that sounds like a good idea. I know my school (Kennesaw State University) is the most competitive in the state. There are people with 4.0s that are turned away here as well. But some people get in on other merits. I am hoping to be one of those people. My GPA is good (not 4.0 though) and I hope to bring up my TEAS. I do have a year (2 semesters) of foreign language, an associate degree in education, and I am about to start volunteer work. So I just hope and pray to get in. I am also trying to get A's in all of my pre-reqs. So far so good. All I can do is hope I can impress them during the interview. I know I can try other schools as a backup plan but my choice is to stay at my current school. I will do anything it takes to get in where I am taking my pre-reqs!!!
