TEAS exam scores?!

emcadams · Feb 17, 2012

It depends on your school...definitely the higher you score, the better, but the particular school may only require you to pass. The school I had to take it for just takes the first score of the year, and since the score is good for a year, it makes sense to apply with the score you have, and retake later if you don't get into your program. The school you may be looking at may have different rules though. My school mostly looks at Percentile Program Rank. So that score can be higher than your individual score. Anyway...I would talk to your school admissions rep or email someone in the nursing department to see if you are able to obtain average stats from the last admission class. Good Luck!

-my adjusted individual total score is 68.7%
-national average is currently 64.3%
Is my score good enough? Also, I scored the highest in science. I made a 75. I don't know if that will be something the school will look at or not.

My adjusted individual score was a 68.7% as well! I have no idea if this is good or not. My highest was readying with a score of 92.9% putting me in the 98th percentile yay! :)

Math I got a 73%

Science I received a 50%

and English since I am AWFUL at spelling I received 60%

I am really hoping my score is good enough, at this point I have no idea. I knew my science was going to be low. Math just made me very upset becuase I knew the material but I ran out of time due to the fact I worked slowly to make sure I got the answers correct. best of luck to you! Let us know if you got accepted. I have a 3.57 GPA so hopefully this all combined will help me out some!

Hi! Can you tell me what you mean by "national average"? And also, when you look at your score report, does it list your program type as BSN? And what is your Percentile Rank in the Program?

I'm asking because my husband and I are desperately trying to figure out his score. He needs to figure out what his Adjusted Individual Total Score of 66.7% (which equals a Percentile Rank - Program of 81 for a PN program) would mean in terms of Percentile Rank for the BSN Program. He needs a 50 or better.

Thanks!!
