Failed the TEAS 5

[I JUST WANNA BE A RN]

I took the TEAS 5 exam and failed...Now I am feeling down and very discouraged

I passed the TEAS but was rejected from nursing school so I am practicing the same advice that I will give you. Don't become discouraged. That is what I am trying to tell myself. Try, try again! I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason and while I may not see that reason right from the get-go, things usually work out for the better.

Use a study guide, enroll in an online prep course, organize a study group...whatever it takes to ensure that you pass next time!

But I imagine how do you feel....Don't give up! keep trying. :)

hi, i took the teas for the first time and failed and was heartbroken:crying2:. but i studied for it even more and took it the next date at my school. i thankflly passed. so what i'll tell you is the same as the others. TRY AND TRY AND TRY AGIAN.lol:lol2:. so true in so many ways. remember he score doesn't reflect you as a person. with a little hard work you can change it:D.

Don't be sad, now you know what to study for when you're taking your exam. When I took it the first time I did outstanding Math, English, and Reading portion, but then scored a 16 percent. I scheduled for another test the same week, busted my ass off on the science portion and was happy to finish with a 85 on my science :).

Hey! I took my TEAS the first time and failed too... I was really sad and discouraged. I need to take the TEAS again but so scared because most schools only want you to take the TEAS twice so its making me really nervous. I see so many people getting high 80s and 90s which discouraged me even more thinking I was the only one who failed........

One thing I find that most students don't do well is because of second guessing. Many I know who were off by the 1% cutoff, went back changed a couple of their answers and to later find out that the first one was right.
