Wish you the best. I took the Teas and did not do to well on the Math part. So I am trying to retake it in two weeks so I can apply for the Spring. What do they require for you to bring to the interview and how was it!!!!!!

Thanks!! I did kinda good on the TEAS. I just hate the waiting game I'm just anxious to know if I'm in or not. To the interview they are going to ask you to bring a 2-3 paged typed essay from an interview you have to do to an active LVN. Also you will have to take 3 reference letters they do not accept any from family or friends.

Can one of the references be from our manager? I went to the orientation today and they told us that they really look at our TEAS scores, Interview, and the grade we make in our nutrition and A&P 1......The only problem I may have is if I pass I still have to take nutrition and A&P 1 and they won't be able to look at it because its still in progress. I did hear someone say that we won't be able to apply if our classes are in progress. Have you heard anything about that. I hope its not true its going to put a lot of people behind. Sorry, Im asking so many questions..lol

It's not that bad just the time given for the reference letters is kinda short. On math I got an 92 and reading 88. Overall 79 did bad in science lol. My current GPA is 3.75. Yes, I did take HPRS 1201 the introductory to nursing class. I did the folder but we never had to take that to the interview.

I got one of my reference letters from my manager and also district manager and one from my A&P professor. I'm not sure but I think as long as you have proof that your enrolled in them but I'm not positive. Call the school and make sure. What I do not if you do get accepted you have to have your Hep B series done in time, it usually takes @6 months to get all 3 shots.

Lol its OK I'm in the same boat I'm asking people too. It's good to get the most information we can to be better prepared.

Ohh that sounds great and with that GPA and great test scores I believe you will get accepted . Thats great because I rushed on my folder ,and I wrote anything just to get a grade lol and , I would hate to have to do some of it over again. Did you take your nutrition and A&P 1 class over the summer or you currently taking it.

I'm still nervous but positive let's wait and see if not I'll apply again. Lol I remember doing that folder lol I used to leave everything at the last moment lol. I actually took my Nutrition and A&P since last year in the summer. I didn't apply for this spring because I wanted to spend some time with my kids before going into the program.
