The ATI online practice tests are helpful and very similar to the actual exam. Also, the Mometrix and ATI books help to prepare. For co-req's, BIO 142 and BIO 150. Good luck!!

I got an e-mail saying the previous one was sent in error - did anyone else get that?

Just got my acceptance e-mail. Good luck to all!

Hi - I'm applying for Spring 2020. I was actually accepted for Fall 2019 but cannot go at this time so need to reapply. I'm wondering about the TEAS scores and eligibility. I took the TEAS in February 2019. For this cycle, do the TEAS scores need to ...

Please don't lose hope! There is a lot you can still do. I too have a BS in Biology and didn't focus well during undergrad. I'm much older now and when taking the pre-req's for nursing changed my studying strategy, etc. I realized that I need to sit ...

Does anyone want to make a Facebook group for the cohort?

Thank you! This is very helpful.

Does anyone have any idea what the first semester would look like in terms of how many days a week we have classes/clinical?

I just got my acceptance e-mail!! For future applicants, might help for them to know accepted stats... Mine are 4.0 pre-req GPA and 86 TEAS.

Thank you blb28 for the info. I wonder if they will take into account the spring semester grades, or if they look at only those completed at the time of the application.

Oh sorry! This is just me thinking that if they have processed the apps, they might change the degree assigned - I just came up with this idea myself trying to figure out, but I haven't ever heard of them doing that. I think Canvas is replacing Black...

Yeah I think it's 100-150 pending how many clinical spots they can secure. I've been checking SIS to see if degree changed and also the new canvas system but nothing. Haha - just too anxious about it all.

I'm also checking mine constantly even though I get notifications when I get emails.? Just a nervous habit. They said they would be sending out decisions the first week of May at the earliest. So might not be this week. This year is actually much ea...

Does anyone have backups that they are looking into? I think we're all very anxious about this. I've been exploring options in the case that I don't get in this fall, the first being applying for next Spring. Other than that, I'm not sure. I already ...

I applied on March 6 and heard back last Friday, so I think you should hear this week or next on eligibility. Seems every app is reviewed in the order that they were submitted to determine if eligible or not.

86 overall. 92 reading, 91 English, 100 math, 64 science. I decided to just take it once. I applied the first week of March.

I received one today - application eligible and moved onto the next round of review.

For this cycle or starting Spring? Any idea what they're changing to?

Yeah I think it's partly because they changed the pre-reqs and only require BIO141 and not 142.

Yes, I'm pretty sure it will, as long as it maps to BIO142 and taken within the last 10 years. You can do a transfer evaluation request and ask specifically about that class -- I've found with the transfer classes that they will look at the requests ...

Sara - I asked the MEC counselor this question. They said that it will count if you've taken it already. I took BIO142 last fall.

Do you know if this affects how many they will take in the fall? And has anyone been able to confirm the TEAS requirement being 68 average of all sections, or minimum of that in all?

ShayBee - where did you see that?

The all ADN program mean = average for all ADN programs. NVCC is an ADN program, whereas GMU is a BSN program. So if the average for math is 70% for ADN programs, that means the mean for people applying to the ADN programs in math is 70. % of studen...

Hi all! First post, been lurking for awhile now. I'm applying - 4.0 in all prereq's and an 86 on the TEAS (100 math, 91 english, 92 reading and 64 science). Not sure if I should retake it to up my science score. I used the ATI study guide and tests f...
