1. Want to be an LVN but I can't pass the TEAS

   JennMcK replied to JennMcK's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Thanks, yeah I think I need to do that. All my life I have had problems with Math. I have always needed special tutoring for

2. Want to be an LVN but I can't pass the TEAS

   JennMcK replied to JennMcK's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I have yet to find an LVN program that does not require that you pass the TEAS exam. Here in San Diego, they all do. The Grossmont Health Occupations Center is where I wanted to get my LVN education...

3. Want to be an LVN but I can't pass the TEAS

   JennMcK posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I tried once to take and pass the TEAS and I did not do well on the math part. That is not surprising since I'm terrible at math. I'm ok at Science and good at English/Spelling, etc. Anyhow it's...

   Thank you Stephalump (and everyone else). I think I will do that.

   Yeah I think I'll need to do that (the tutoring), although I have spoken to other nurses and they told me that they were bad at math and still managed to do it. They told me, "You'll learn it as you...

   I would probably have to as well. I think it varies from state to state. Where do you live? I live in

   JennMcK replied to JennMcK's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I'm actually thinking of becoming an LVN rather than an RN. But we'll

   JennMcK replied to JennMcK's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Oh I know all about that. I'm not bad at calculations and measurements. We learned about that in my CNA class. I'm just not good at advanced math like algebra,

   JennMcK replied to JennMcK's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Oh really? Yeah I could probably do that. However if I go into any school, it will have to be when my son is in school full time (he's only 4 years old right

    JennMcK replied to JennMcK's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Forget it, I'm not going to even bother anymore. If I have to take and pass the TEAS test then I'd rather not even try to become an LVN or an RN. The reason why is that if I never pass the test,...

    JennMcK replied to JennMcK's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I also think I did bad on the math section of the TEAS test because I wasn't prepared for it. I did not study for it or anything. I wasn't even aware that there was a test to take. I was very naive...

    JennMcK replied to JennMcK's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm not looking for an easy way out. It just seems like it's very hard just to get accepted into any nursing school, even LPN (which is what I'm aiming

    Oh really? Well that's a relief, thank you for letting me know that. That's one obstacle out of the

    JennMcK replied to JennMcK's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you. Unfortunately California makes it so much harder to get into Practical Nursing (or any Nursing) programs. I know each state is different. I'm not sure where you live, but out here it is...

    JennMcK replied to JennMcK's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you. Yeah I have a big fear of the TEAS exam for that reason (math) alone. I can't even comprehend pre-algebra without help. I would love to be able to get into the LVN program at the...
