JROregon, yes I do have a plan. I have highlighted the areas that have the most questions missed in each section. I don't want to waste my time studying a section that I only missed 1 question. Any area I missed 5 or more questions, I think needs to be reviewed.

My school will take the highest score. I have taken A and B practice test, study guides 4.0 and V, and tutored for 6 weeks. I have studied very hard. I am a little disappointed with myself for only getting an average score for all that I studied. Most of my prerequisites were taken 10+ years ago so it isn't fresh in my head; I have to relearn. I took it last semester and got a 56%, so I went from a 56% to 64.7%. I just need to take it from a 64.7% to 80%. Thanks for the encouragement. I knew this would be the right thing to do; I just needed to ask people who are in the same boat and not people who have no idea what I am talking about. Thanks :)

i am pondering a decision... my school uses the teas v as apart of the selection process into the nursing program. the requirement is proficient, advanced, or exemplary. i got a proficient score and i am unsure if i should retake it. the program average is 64.7% and that is exactly what i got; the 50th percentile. i called the school today to ask if that score is high enough; i was told 58% to 79% is considered to be proficient. i asked them how they use the teas as a selection tool. they said in the proficient category, a 58% would give you as much of a chance as a 79%. in the advanced category, 80% would give you as much of a chance as a 89% and so on. the only way they consider individual scores is if other criteria is tied with another applicant (science gpa and nursing prerequisite gpa). would you retake the exam to try and get a higher score even if you knew you may end up in the same proficient category?
