I know this is an older thread but I'm applying to the adn program for the fall of 2015. I've read through comments but was really wondering what everyone made on the teas test? How many total points ? And if you got accepted! Any info would help

Thanks in advance

Hi! I am happy to answer your questions. I was accepted in fall of 2013 and I will be graduating in May 2015. I made a 90 on the teas test. We didn't have to take the science or math portion so it was fairly simple. I think I had between 110-115 points total. If you do well on the teas test it really sets a good foundation to have a higher amount of points.

Thanks for the info! How would you rate the program? Are the first semesters harder than the last few or the other way around ? Also did you have all the core classes done before you started the program ?

Cheyenne91 · Nov 3, 2014

You're welcome! I had all of the required core classes done before I started the program, I think it is much easier that way. There are some people who have taken a couple of classes online while in the nursing program but I know it can get pretty hard keeping up with everything. I still have other core classes like government and economics that I need to take for my BSN after I finish this program, but I will cross that bridge when I get there. Anyway, it's hard to rate the semesters from hardest to easiest because they are all pretty hard. It just gets a little easier as you go because you figure out the best way to study and you get used to the tests and everything. It's kinda like when you are out of shape and you start working out and it really sucks at first but then one day you are working out and you realize that it's really not that bad anymore because your body is used to it. But I have to say that workload wise, the first semester was challenging because we had a ton of tests and skills labs. We had to go to Corsicana a lot during the first semester. The second semester had less tests but more clinicals and assignments to do. The summer semester was a lot of information crammed into a very short time. And the current semester only has 4 tests and a final but we have more clinicals than we have had in the previous semesters. It's hard and can be stressful at times, but its also fun and rewarding.

Is there a lot of assignments that go along with the clinicals? Or is it just hard to manage time while taking classes and doing clinicals? Also did you work any while in the program or just focus on school ?

Also Cheyenne do you know what the least amount of points that someone was accepted into the program with? I have pretty much all As and a 3.8 gpa but made a 78 on the reading portion of the teas test. I'm worried about that

Crc2015 did you get everything turned in on time for the ADN program? I also applied. Would be nice to have someone to chat with during this long wait!

crc2015 · Feb 14, 2015

Yes Jsmith I got it all turned in after what seemed like an eternity of getting shots, doing exams and taking the teas test. But it's all done now just playing the waiting game! Do you mind me asking how many points your applying with?

jsmith15 · Feb 14, 2015

I agree it sure did seem like it took a while for everything to come together! I am applying with 120 points to the Corsicana campus. What about you?

crc2015 · Feb 14, 2015

I'll be applying with 103 to the Corsicana campus. I didnt do well on the teas test

jsmith15 · Feb 14, 2015

I've been reading a lot of different threads from people applying over the last few years and I think you still have goddess chance. Fingers crossed for you....would be nice to get in together. Are you from Corsicana?
