Average TEAS V Score? Your score?

Updated:   Published

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?

Most schools want at least an 80%. That score is well above that. What was your English score?

My English score was 75%! Haha. My spelling and grammar are pretty good, but I wouldn't recognize a verb if it jumped out at me. My other scores were (approximately) 94% reading, 92% math and 83% science.

With those scores, you are gonna be top pick!

The program I am applying for gives bonus points if you are currently working in a health related field, which I am not. I think that is worrying me the most. I'm going to read an English Language for Dummies book, see if it makes a difference when I retest! I'll have also completed all of A&P 1 and about half of A&P 2 by March. I swear, most of my science section was glands, hormones and enzymes.

I studied some, not too much and made an 80.0%. I really think it is super important to look over the teas study guide to get a good idea of how the questions are worded, and to know what to expect.The program I applied to requires a 63% on the teas so I am feeling confident but I wont know till after April if I got in.

I took the test today and got an 84.7, putting me in the 94th percentile for national and program rank.

As of today, the national average is 65.6 and the program average is 66.1.
