I was replying to your question if you have good stats yes you you do. I was denied with a 3.65 and 88.7 TEAS an interview to cohort 66 I was just saying if you want to be super competitive. Your points are right where interviews for cohort 66 cut off. I’m sure cohort 67 won’t be as competitive. I know someone with a 3.4 and 90 TEAS was also denied an interview to cohort 66.I am retaking A&P 1 and lab which is what’s making my prereq GPA lower 3.6 to be more competitive for this cohort.
@AA94 I got a 90% on my TEAS and I had a 3.75 GPA. Our cohort was the last cohort with the Essay so that won't really pertain to you guys. As far as I know, every cohort's cutoff is slightly different. It goes off everyone else who is applying. Example: If everyone applying has really really high scores, it'll obviously be harder to get in. Whereas if the majority of the people applying have mediocre scores, it'll essentially be "easier", aka the cutoff is a little lower. Obviously, play it safe and get the best scores you can so you are a competitive candidate.

What was your TEAS score if you don't mind me asking?

I have a 3.5 GPA and 94.7 TEAS! I don't know if that's competitive enough to get in.

Seems competitive to me! 94.7 TEAS is awesome.
And remember, they only look at your sciences and other two (or 3??) Prereqs as your GPA. It's NOT your cumulative GPA. IDK if you knew that already... some people didn't.

Thank you Amber, yes. They only look at Science and math GPA!
I'm a refugee from a cohort 66?. It was an insane and super competitive cohort. I got the interview, but my application was denied. However, a representative from a nursing department highly encourages me to apply again because if they didn't reduce the cohort, I would be in. I wish all of you good luck, and I hope to see you in October?
I just found this page today thank goodnesss because I have been looking for something like this for a while now!
Currently for math/science my grades are:
A&P 1: A
A&P1 lab: A
A&P 2: B-
A&P lab: B
Microbiology: B
Microbiology lab: A
Biostats (will take in May)
SO, I would like anyone and everyone to be blunt with me and let me know if you think I should retake any classes....I have noticed a lot of people getting in the nursing program have high GPAs, and I am happy for you all but at the same time a little worried about mine...I just want to apply with the best grades possible.

Hi there, nice to meet you.
We have very similar grades!
When are you planning to apply? Biomedical statistics is a one month course! The application deadline is May 14.
I honestly don't think you should retake anything! Your grades are pretty good.
I plan on applying for the August cohort...I haven't even taken the TEAS test yet because I did not know that was required until my advisor told me last month (I am a transfer student from Weber State University, UT)
It seems like everyone's GPAs are higher so I feel like I need to retake A&P 2 and maybe more....I don't know, definitely starting to stress about it!
