What TEAS score did you get & did you get accepted in the nursing program?

[nursein2012]

I took the TEAS exam this morning and got an adjusted individual score of 89.4% overall. I got a 97.5 on reading, 97.8 on math, 83.3 on science, and 83.6 on the English.

I currently have a GPA of 4.0 and I am taking the 3 prereqs for the nursing program now..which are English Comp I, General Psychology, and A&P I.

I have to attend a health information session tomorrow after which I can apply for the internal transfer into the (ADN) Nursing program out of health sciences-general studies.

I am super nervous about the whole process and really hope it all goes well. I am just wondering what scores everyone got on their TEAS and if you got accepted or not into your program.

Thanks!!

I took it a couple of weeks ago and got 91.8%. Totally bombed the science part though (like 68%).

I HIGHLY recommend taking the online tests from ATI. The first one I took I got a 73% & the second one I got a 92% (without studying... just a couple of weeks apart). It really helped me to catch some of the tricky wording that I hadn't noticed the first time around. I really think it helped a ton.

I don't know if I got in yet or not... Hopefully should find out in a few weeks.

Hi everyone, I am taking my TEAS in 2 weeks, very stressed out! but I was wondering if anybody is or has gone to Rasmussen college? They have a RN program there that seems great?

[micky912]

[kkares]

I am using the ATI book and I also have the Mcgraw book, I havent really looked at that one very much I think the ATI books is pretty good. I had to walk away from studying so much for a day because, I dont think I was learning anymore..... but back at it tomorrow

I took an older version, so I'm not going to bother posting my scores.

Taking the TEAS and getting your scores can create some anxiety because you often don't know what it means or how it's going to be used. Unless you've been told exactly what numbers and ranges are considered, I think a good way to approach it is to focus on your percentile for the program. I don't have any insider information or anything, but it just makes sense for admissions counselors to look at that because it represents where you perform as compared to other candidates who are applying or have been accepted.

I did look over the Mcgraw book, it does seem to be pretty good, it is helping me with the math portion....I need all the math help I can get.....I have 10 more days to study....Yikes:eek:
