    i think anywhere 80% + is good or competitive


    The TEAS V is supposed to be MUCH tougher than the previous version and it's not like you can legitimetely ever go in to a professional school entrance exam expecting to get a 100%, although you should always try

    So as long as you get an 80 or above i think you should be fine

    *kind of compare it to like the MCAT(where the MAX score is 45), you prob won't get the MAX score but a 30 is considered good on the MCAT, where likewise id say an 80 is considered good on the TEAS

    It is good - but my GPA is only going to be a 3.596 (because of B's in all my history/government classes) but 4/4 A attempts. So I need something to boost that - that's why I want to retake it.

    Thank you for your comment. That is true that you cannot expect to get 100%. I'm just really nervous, especially because I failed HESI for the first try. For some reason, I thought that HESI was a lot harder... I will have to retake HESI in January. It makes me nervous to retake it after failing the vocabulary part.

    Your GPA is not bad either, and you are 4/4 attempts! I think there is a high hope! Good luck on test! By the way, are you applying to Denton campus or Houston?

    Does anyone kno the email of the nursing coordinator at twu Dallas? I want to ask some questions but the email I have she's not responding!

    Try calling the Dallas campus - the number is listed under the Dallas page on the CON website. They might have changed coordinators (I think???) So maybe that is why.

    No you don't have to be accepted to take it. I'm signed up for it for the spring at the Dallas campus.
