Hello all! I'm wondering if anyone else will be trying to get into the Summer Nursing Program for 2017.

I was supposed to for this Fall but I wasn't selected and it was a very tough selection process since everyone scored belowed %70 on that exam.

They have changed test from being just strictly A&P I and A&P II to the TEAS 6 format for summer 2017.

I've been studying really hard and hopefully I get in. If you're trying to get in, I hope I see you around Goodwin!

Right now I'm trying to increase my points and GPA. I had a 3.5.

Im a bit of an odd case because of some setbacks on getting my BSN at other schools, I decided on the ASN.

Looking forward to meeting you all! ❤️

Whats your story?

Hi there!

I am trying to get in for the Summer. I am currently in A&P II and once the semester is done will focus on the TEAS. I'm an evening student BTW.

Hi! I'm glad to see I won't be alone! I wish you the best on the TEAS!

I hope to meet others too and form a study group once I find enough people.

What made you choose nursing? ❤️

Hey! How did you do on the TEAS or are you taking it tomorrow? I just took it today and who knows what the admitting points score is for May 2017. It may seem like it's impossible to get in, but it's just a waiting game. I am at a solid 14 points before taking the TEAS, wishing you good luck, and maybe see you in the future!

Hello,

I had to put off going into the Summer Class for the Fall '17 class. I had some things come up and my job situation is changing. Im currently at 12 points.

I think it depends on where they want to make the cutoff and how people did. what I was told was that 19 points to 21 points is a good area to be in.

I also think it depends on how many are applying to the program. I hope you did well. I'll be taking it a little later on this year so hopefully I'm ready. Best of luck! ❤

hello everyone;

I was accepted for this summer 17, wondering who else got in?

Hello javi2316,

I was also accepted for summer 2017. The waiting game is over, we will be starting soon. Which day did you register nur 100? I am actually meeting with the nursing department early since I wont be here for orientation on the 29th. I will be out of the country. Maybe we will be in the same class together! congrats!

I took it on Friday for May 5th. Not sure if how I did is good or not. I'm hoping for the best. The national average was 65.6% and our program average is 66.1% when I saw the results. It was surprising to me.

I know, the point system at Goodwin can be tricky, and competitive. Good luck the waiting game for acceptance package.

Yeah it really is going to be this time. Many of us scored in the 60s so far. I hope for the best. I got above the passing score of 58.7% so half the battle is over. ❤️ Thank you so much.

Hi Peacelove889,

I took the TEAS last weekend and got a 69x I thought it was really hard! I'm in the same boat you are with the waiting game. Feeling kind of discouraged about my score though. Wish thy would tell us, I am very impatient lol

Yeah I mean I was pretty shocked at my score because I thought I scored higher. I scored a 62%. I agree some of it was tough. I'm not sure how things will go. I think we are the second batch altogether the test changed from NLN to TEAS for the summer 17 people.

A 69 is great! That's really good. Not sYes sure what the averages is now. The national is pretty low or still low so that says something that the test was hard for a lot of people.

I wish you the best of luck, don't know what scale they'll use to choose us. ❤️
