Ivy Tech Spring '10 Applicants

U.S.A. Indiana

Published

This is the "Not In" thread, or for anyone that's planning on applying for Spring Semester by the Sept 1st deadline.

We need love too! :loveya:

My Boring Stats:

A's in prereq's except ANP 2...taking that class now.

Horribly embarrassing TEAS at 76, still have two more tries. (Which is why I'm taking math and phys sci this summer. lol)

Hope to get into the Bloomington or Terre Haute programs. (Yay! Greene county gets region pts at both. lol)

Currently frazzling myself out with 5 online classes :bugeyes:

It's nice to meet you....whoever you are....

Indy is having an info session on Aug. 25th at 2pm. I think I will go, just to hear about any new stuff that they've done since the last time I went to an info session last Nov. For example, I know they are now doing some summer classes. I figure it can't hurt to go to the session right before applying so I have all the most current info. If anyone else wants to go, let me know!

You're going to an Indy one? I thought you were applying to Terre Haute and Greencastle maybe?

Fear of getting a B in Anatomy. It's gonna be close. lol

So I'm applying at Terre Haute, Bloomington, and Indy. I MIGHT apply to Columbus as well if my scores end up on the cusp. = )

Well then we'll have to meet up outside the auditorium where they do the info session so we can sit together!

I am so hoping I can get something worked out with a babysitter to go to the info session with you two in August! Can't hurt to go twice, just to make sure they get it on record if nothing else.

On a side note, has anyone taken the TEAS yet? I took it yesterday and I have to admit it was not quite as bad as I had envisioned. It sure does cover a lot though, wow!

How did u do on the teas. What kinda quest did they have. Is it like the practice book. What campus r u at.

I thought the TEAS was not as hard as the practice book, so therefore I thought the practice book was a good study tool.

I was happy with my TEAS results. I scored an 87, which would have been good enough for last semester's program in Indy, assuming all A's were received, and that the applicant was in region. That being said, I will probably retake the test. While I am not so sure that I can increase the score, I will at least give it a try.

The test itself covers a wide range of things. Math, Reading, Science and English; All of which cover a variety of areas. I found the Science area the most challenging, as you are tested in 4 different areas of science, (Life, Chemical, Physical and Anatomy) plus scientific reasoning and general science.

Unlike some others, I did find the book useful. I had seen similar questions from the test in the book. Most people however, prefer the online versions of the test to study by. I have not accessed those yet, but hope to before I retake.

Hope I answered your question! Where do you plan to apply?
