Accepted!

Published

First of all I'd like to say I have been accepted into a nursing program in the state of rhode island. I am a male & very excited to start my new adventure. But what I'd really like to do is give reassurance. I applied to one nursing program for this fall. My teas test was very average at 61%. I spent my nights wondering why I couldn't be like the others posting 80%+ grades. I couldn't sleep and worried about not being smart enough. I'll be starting my adventure at St. Joseph school of nursing, in high school I had a 2.0 gpa nothing anazing. But after I put in my application my work did not stop there I made appointments with the faculty to discuss anything and everything. I showed them I was ready for the task. And out of 250 applicants I was one of the 50 that were chosen. Keep your head up if you want it badly enough there's nothing that can stop you.

Congratulations!

Well, the school that I am going to apply asks for the following:

""Please aim for a composite score of 75% or higher and a 75% or higher for the Reading section. You may take the TEAS V exam twice and we will choose the highest score."

Is this a high requirement?
