:banghead: OK...need to vent...sorry....last Oct.(2007) I took my NET to go to Lancaster Tech. I scored an 82%....I moved to Del. County and am about to enroll at Folcroft (Delaware County Technical School). They told me that the NET is no longer accepted and that I needed to take the TEAS. OK...when I got there, which was today, I studied my Math and Science...after looking on these boards and seeing the Science questions. My Reading Comp wasn't that bad at all....mostly graphs, charts and questions that pertain to them. Then there is the Math, fractions, percents, conversions (degrees F to degrees C, lbs. to kg, mL to gal. etc.) I freaked! I didn't study conversions! I figured well, I still have science so maybe that will help me with my average of passing....WRONG...they said to skip the science...SKIP THE SCIENCE...***...Why couldn't they just use my NET scores? I did so much better on my NET...now I'm sitting here wondering if I passed or not because I know that I guessed on all those conversions. I even purchased that ATI book:down: and went online to practice TEAS test....this is bologna! :no:

Sorry...had to vent. I'm 35 with 3 beautiful little girls, ages 7, 6, and 4. If I waited this long...I mine as well wait more right? :cry: I'm just so anxious in going to nursing school and can't wait....I guess I will have to now!
