Ive been out of school 5 years, no degree but lots of credit hours. I have all the pre reqs for the ASN program at my school. My overall gpa is 2.2. The school selects prospective based on a point system. That system is based on you final grade in 4 pre req courses with a max score of 90 points. I have 70, it is also base on the results of the TEAS Exam, I scored 86 on that. Overall Gpa is not a factor in the selection process just a pre req to be over 2.0 to apply. I believe it's a state regulation also
What do you think my chances are?
Thanks

Near impossible to say without knowing the scores of your cohort applicants. IN my school, the TEAS was taken into account only as a Pass/Fail of a certain score. My scoring in the 98th percentile was equal to someone scoring in the 48th percentile. In my school, for my semester's admissions, the lowest GPA that was accepted (as far as I've heard) was a 3.2 or 3.3. There were 12 4.0 students, and it went down from there until every seat was filled.
If your cohort applicants have similar overall scores out of the 90 max, you have a good chance. If they're higher, you have less of a chance. But you have zero chance if you don't apply!
