Less applicants? I am a little surprised by that. With the extension through 2/15, I thought it would be more, though I am quite grateful for less. I am so happy they added five more seats to give more of us a fighting chance for a spot. I am staying faithful and trying to do everything to keep myself occupied ??

 

Yes that’s great news about less applicants and 5 more spaces. That’s gives people with lower test scores to get in..(assuming the GPA is decent) covid was the reason I decided not to apply so that’s probably the reason for others as well.

Hey Kathy! I just took Kaplan as well. Submitted my application today. She said they will accept 65 this semester per an enrollment specialist. What the others said is how they factor the GPA but I’m not too thrilled about that because I have a 3.7 if they only factor the sciences but because they want the other grades for English psychology etc it brings me to a 3.23 so we shall see. Good Luck to you! What are your stats?

and oh yeah on a positive note she did tell me not as many people applied this year since Covid like they did last year so that’s a plus for us all! 

Great stats! How did you do on the Kaplan?

I made a 77. I didn't want to be the one to say this on here but some people *may* have an advantage that didn't really try on the exam because the exam is very much accessible. I'm not saying everyone did that or had the intentions but a set that I glanced at for an idea of practice questions was my exam word for word w/ the same answers. I had no clue. Even though my score wasn't high, I just feel good that I gave my honest answers you know! 

What does yours say??? 

Wow really! I honestly had no idea. I know that the same test is given during the year so you have an advantage the 2nd time you take it but knowing the test is circulating out there word for word isn’t fair at all.

I have been reading the other threads also and I have no idea when they will be getting back to us. If it's April, someone will have to do a daily check in with me because I'll be totally nuts by then! LOL  I just keep checking in with everyone here because we are in this together 

I feel like it wasn’t that long last year but perhaps. So crazy how most of us were checking DAILY! Just couldn’t help it!! ?

Wow!! I’m a lame-o and had no idea about released exam questions. I studied the Kaplan guide(was not all that helpful by the way) and studied my notes. I went online to meet my new obsession...checking my application status every 10 minutes until there is a decision! Yay!! ? pray for me y’all

Right I said daily but checking  all throughout the day is more like it.

I made an 80... I probably could have did better but I was not feeling well when I took it. So I am praying that they take some higher and lower stats.?.... We shall see but I’m ready to know.

It's probably easier for it to circulate since it's the same exam being given. Some quiz sets I viewed were even 3-5 years old! Just imagine. While I've never taken the TEAS, I'm assuming the exam changes each time making it more secure.

Hey Everyone, 
My name is Myeshia and I’m applying for the Fall 2021 Cohort. I have a cumulative GPA of 3.6 (Wish it was higher) & science GPA of 4.0. I’m taking the Kaplan this Thursday and turning my application in on Friday. I took the Kaplan for another school in October and didn’t study at all and made a 75% so I’m hoping I make at least a 85+ or higher to be competitive and I actually studied for a month this time. Is there any last minute tips you guys have? Anything will help.

 Lastly, I don’t think there are that many applicants either just because a health team advisor/specialist told me via email “as long as you are doing everything on your end and the delay is on us, we will honor your application” even if my transfer courses were not evaluated by the deadline but thank god they were evaluated today ?. So everyone stay prayed up and keep faith!
