I fail Teas twice, what should I do now..

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

when I just start my A&P class, my nursing friend told me the Teas exam is super easy, I should take as quick as possible..so I did, and I fail....and then I go to the nursing office to ask for how many time Teas exam I can take here, and is it affected when I apply to get into the program? a young girl told me that I can take as many times as I want, and the score number is not important, the important thing is my GPA of A&P, Chemistry, ENGLISH and psychology. She also said the only I need is to past the Teas exam... so I did again, no surprising, I didn't pass again. during the time I check my Teas result, the staff told me I can only take twice on this college, otherwise, If I really want to continue this major, I need to transfer....My school is Lagcc

I dont know what should I do now, I'm not interesting on other fields, but seems there has no any other colleges accept me except privacy college, but they are too expensive. My ENG101 AND psychology are both A, but chemistry is B.... I'm taking my A&P now. I don't know what is my next step....any opinion please? or any public college for nursing in NYC for recommence? Im so frustrated

What part of the TEAS are you struggling with?

I didn't do well on science and reading, because I haven't finish A&P 1 yet, and reading, I dont know, it such hard, because 60 minus for 53 questions, every question has a pretty long story. I dont have time to read, and worry about other three parts.

I'm pretty sure each section has set amounts of time though, so you don't need to worry about running out of time. I would wait until you finish A&P 1 to retake the TEAS. I took mine after A&P 1. You'll get there, I promise.

I don't have chance to retake anymore, the college staff told me I used twice chance already, I have to transfer. But the mean point is I dont know how I can find a quality school and they can give me another chance for Teas Exam....sad..

Why don't you go to a community college? They have LPN programs where you don't need such high scores on the TEAS. I went for my LPN at a community college, even though my scores were above the RN level.

There are always options!

I'm in community college now, but they such kick me out by Failing twice Teas exams

You got this. If this is truly your passion, you won't let one thing get in your way. ?

you make me feel better?

It seems that English is not your first language. This may be holding you back. Can you find an English language class to take at your community college?
