NCTC Spring 2018 Online LVN program

Published

I just took the TEAS test for the Spring 2018 NCTC online LVN program. They only accept the top 30 highest scoring students. I think I did ok, but wont know if I'm accepted until the 2nd week of August. Anyone else applying to this program? If so, how did you do on the TEAS test?

So, I had absolutely horrible timing. I had scheduled my test a week before I was getting married and leaving for my honeymoon so I did not study at all. Then, I thought I could see what the test was like and retake it prior to the deadline. That being said, I feel like I did terrible! I have not been in school since before my daughter but I have never seen a grade that low in a long time! Needless to say, I left there freaking out and feeling defeated.

The thing about it is though, I did not feel like it was that difficult. I just did not spend as much time on the test as I should of and became very anxious to get finished. I was communicating with one of the professors back and forth and she felt that I "probably" would be fine to not retake it. But, then went on to tell me that they had 80+ applicants for the online program in which only 30 are selected. That being said, I went ahead and scheduled to take the test again on August 3rd just to be sure and so that I can study as well this go around. What range was your overall score? You do not have to tell me exactly ;)

I'm am stressing to the max!!

I made a 73.3 overall - not sure how that compares to all the others. Wont know anything until 8/15 I believe. What did you score the first time you took it?

I made 69.1% which freaked me out because I failed. But, I'm going to take it again now that I have been studying in hopes that I do better!!

I am freaking out still and hoping and praying I am accepted! Have you heard from any others about their scores or any updates on when we will find out? I am retaking the test tomorrow just in case to see how I do.

I haven't heard anything yet. I checked the website and it says that all applicants should be notified by 8/15/17. I'm sure you will do fine - let me know afterwards.

That's great! I bet you and I will both get in!!! Dont stress about it. If you dont mind me asking, what age group are you in? I'm not the typical student, I just turned 52. This is Chapter 2 of my life :) Kids are out of the house, time for my dream!

Hi Tperkins, I am 47 and applied and took the test on August 3rd but i did really bad on science. I only made 69.4 % so i guess i won't be accepted. Too bad we could be in the same group age :-)

I would not get discouraged! The first time I took it I made a 69.1 and was emailing the professor back and forth and she said I would "probably" be fine. I just retook it because it made me feel better and ended up improving my score. So there is always a chance! My lowest score was on the science too. We should find out by email tomorrow right? Or soon at least.
