Columbus Tech ADN SPRING 2018

Published

Hello!

Are there any other CTC hopefuls applying for Spring 2018? I know we can not submit apps until September 15th, but I believe being proactive and networking before hand is a great way to inspire and talk about the process... I take the NLN Sep 11th. Have you all taken it before? What is there to expect?... is it vastly different than the TEAS??

Thank you so much! When I took the TEAS I messed up by staying up super late the night before trying to study more. Ranked in the 85th percentile on it.. people say that's not a bad score but I know I could have done better. The science part hurt me bad. I will most definitely take your advice!

I have completed all of my pre reqs. I am transferring from GA Perimeter (GA State now). Their program has already started and I missed the deadline like a crazy person. I believe everything happens for a reason though because I had no idea Columbus Tech even offered a nursing program, let alone a shorter one!

Also my compass is reading 92

And writing 86

With pre req gpa 3.8

What are your scores?

Should I take the compass again?

Nervous for my nln on 25th

I def wanna make higher than 115

I've studied just so nervous I'll get the hardest questions

lovingmy2 You will do great then! I don't think the NLN test we have to take is harder than the TEAS. I looked both up before taking the NLN test, because I was curious what they are about. And yes 85 percentile is great!!!! You will rock this test.

Yay, another transfer student! I agree with you that everything happens for a reason. I applied at CVCC in spring, which was my first semester of taking prereqs. Of course I didn't get in, because even though completion of prereqs before the program start is not required, they use the grades to rank applicants. But if I actually get into the Columbus Tech program, I will be finished even sooner than I would have going to CVCC.

I really hope everything goes well and we all get into the program! I'm going to drop off my application today :nurse:

I took the Accuplacer and not the Compass, so I'm not 100% sure which scores they wanted for Compass, but I think you scored above them! Your gpa is great! Mine is about the same and my Accuplacer scores were

Reading 104

Sentence Skills 111

You studied for the test, believe in yourself and think super positive. I know it sounds crazy, but positive thinking helps soooo much! You will rock the test!

I talked to someone who finished the program last year I think, and she said almost everybody who applied got into the program. So hopefully we get that lucky as well!

Update: So I took the NLN.... however I'm not sure what my scores are. How do you check your results online? I'm not seeing my raw scores or anything...

You check online on the same page you registered. Did you wait 4 hours yet? I kept checking my page like a crazy person and refreshed every 10 minutes lol but my results didn't show up until late at night (way past r hours). So I fell asleep on the couch with my phone in my hand. When I woke up in the middle of the night I checked and there it was! Haha The next morning I wasn't sure if I was just dreaming the result lol

Lol! Okay so I checked online, and I see scores that says RN Applicants & PN Applicants... but I don't see anything that shows how many questions I got right in each section or anything. Soooo.... not sure what I'm looking at. Lol

Look under the RN Applicant section. The first number is your score (called composite score). There are 2 more numbers next to that. Idk what that second number means but the third one is your percentile.

I hope this helps!

The NLN was another animal. Lol nothing like the TEAS at all... seemed to be more random. You don't know what question they will throw at you next. I ran out of time in the verbal section. They give you 40 minutes to answer 60 questions. The math was pretty easy (I like math) and I had little A&P on my test. More life science, biology, and physics than anything. Little chemistry. Just make sure you know a little about every topic! I made below the requirement unfortunately, 120. But best of luck to you guys! I will still follow the thread to see how you guys do!!!
