Took the TEAS V. I got a 78.
I thought oh, no. That's awful. I hadn't studied a lick, so it's better than I'd expected...for not knowing what to expect.
When I told the admissions office I got a 78, they're jaws nearly hit the floor. Apparently, the average score at my campus is between 50 and 54.
Have you guys found the same to be true? How'd you do?

I just took it on the 6th and got a 76%. Same thing here, the admissions office said I did great and need to go to a competitive school rather then stay on their wait list... It made me feel good, but can you imagine not passing now that you've taken it?! Its easier then I expected and they give you so much time to finish! Im so happy it's behind me now and it deff gave me a confidence boost :)

I also got a 78 and when I first saw it I was worried that I didnt pass. After asking the testing center that was administering the test they said I did very good. I was so worried about the test being timed but I moved forward with the other sections before time was even up. I took the test last Feb and was just accepted into my program that starts in Aug. I believe the average score for my school was 60-64. Congrats on passing the test :)

My Advisor told me that I need to score atleats an 85 on the TEAS to be competitive for admission...
Is that for the version IV or verion V? At my school the results for version IV had to be in the 80's but they switched to version V which have to be in the 60's or higher. Every school is different.
Is that for the version IV or version V test? At my school 80's was competitive for version IV but they switched to version V and I believe somewhere in the mid 60's to high 60's is competitive for that version. Every school is different though.

I got an 86 and was recently accepted into the program with the V, but I know the average is around 62 for my school which is highly competitive.

I took the TEAS V in May and got a 78.7. Since the national average is a 64 I am hoping that is good enough to get into the BSN program I will be applying to. I don't know the average score of the program but everyone I have talked to said I got a really good score.
