I failed what do I do

Published

I failed my first semester of nursing school by .3% I am so devastated. They changed the admission process to where now i need an 80 on the TEAS test and I only got a 70. I don't know if I should try again at my current school where I only get An associate, or should I shop around for a new college to get my BSN in the process.

So they are going to make you retake the Teas even though you are already in the program? Did you fail all classes or just one? You should be able to retake the class you failed with the next cohort and not retake the Teas. Plus, 80 is an awfully high score. They should just go off of whether you scored proficient, advanced, or exemplary. I think a 70 is proficient which means you scored proficient in all areas and should not need any remediation. I got a 78 and scored advanced. I would find another school because I don't think yours is looking at what how the Teas is scored and what those scores mean.

Another question, what kind of school are you going to? Is it a private, for profit school, or a not for profit school?
