First time user! I was wondering if there was anyone applying for NU cohort 49. This would be my second time applying for this program and I have been wondering if this would be a good time or when it would be good to apply again. The cohort I applied for was very competitive, the cut-off was 89 points!! Normally it's at about 82-83 points I believe. My final score was 80.7. I am interested in retaking my TEAS since I scored an 80% the first time to raise my score.
I would like to know applicants gpa and teas score if they've already taken it.
I took the essay and TEAS today (8/19/16) so I likely saw many of you there.
I am a bit confused on one aspect with the scoring. Is the TEAS exam (worth 40% of the points) calculated based upon your "adjusted total score" or is it calculated based upon your percentile? If it is based on the "adjusted total score" I am surprised to hear how high of a cutoff there is. I scored a 90% (adjusted total score) which is in the 99th percentile nationally. So that means I would only get 36/40 points? That seems silly to me.
I have a 4.0 in all my science and math prerequisites; I'm hoping between that and a 90% TEAS will be enough. I nearly ran out of time on the essay - and wasn't all that happy with what I had written. :-(
