Perfect enough???

Got a 4.0 in my pre-reqs for nursing and I won't know whether i will be accepted into the program until late October for January. I know this sounds crazy but has anyone gotten a 4.0 but still feel insure if you will get in?

Well, that depends... does your TEAS score have anything to do with getting in?

I have a great GPA, but I am more worried about my 80.7% TEAS score holding me back.

You are going to feel nervous until the moment you read "Congratulations!"

I don't even know what a TEAS score is. But I guess you're right but 16 students out of 200+ applicants is a tight squeeze

Yep. I don't believe anyone in my class had less than a 4.0, so the deciding factor was entrance testing. 4.0s were rejected, so I was definitely nervous. Good luck to you!

Entrance testing? I'm confused. I go to a community college and I never heard of TEAS testing or anything like that.

It sounds like your school doesn't do entrance testing. The best thing to do is talk to someone over the nursing program and see if most applicants also have a 4.0. Good luck!

My community college uses ACT scores, but it's all the same type of deal. I had a 4.0 and was worried. Made it, but know someone with a 4.0 that didn't make it.

And that's what bothers me. I'm scared and i just want to get in but I'm no different from anyone else I suppose.
