A friend of mine is currently taking her prerequisites at a school in North Carolina. They are given 5 points for each pre-req they take, up to a certain amount, regardless of the grade in that class, as long as it's passing. Then the other points come from taking the TEAS. The thing I don't understand is how a person with all Cs in their pre-reqs and a person with all As in their pre-reqs are given the same number of points for those classes. That doesn't seem fair. This is the only program I've seen where by GPA doesn't matter. Anyone else applying to a program like that? So basically, does her getting in all boil down to what she gets on the TEAS?
