Hello! Before I ask my question, I want to say that I am in the process of contacting the nursing program at SFSU to ask them this question as well. I thought I might as well take a shot and post this question up just in case anyone has the answer to this question. So, for the SFSU nursing program, I know that a specific chemistry is required. For my community college, on assist.org it states that only Chemistry 015 or Chemistry 001A is equivalent to the chemistry the nursing program wants. What I wanted to know is if anyone's taken a Chemistry 30B class (Introductory to Chemistry) and if it was allowed for the SFSU nursing program? Chemistry 30B has an emphasis in organic and introductory biochemistry, which is similar to SFSU's nursing website definition of what type of chemistry should be taken. The website states that the chemistry course should introduce topics in general, organic, and biochemistry. The community college I attend has a sister school that offers similar classes, most with identical names. The sister school's Chemistry 32B, which is my school's Chemistry 30B, is equivalent to SFSU's nursing program, which I thought was strange since they are practically the same. I even tried to enroll in the sister school's Chemistry 32B class and it stated that I was not able to repeat this class. I just wanted to see if anyone's taken the Chemistry 30B class and used it for SFSU's nursing program. Thank you for the help!

Thank you for responding back! I appreciate it. I'll probably call the schools like you suggested to make sure.

First off, I'm from California (just in case it helps with my question) and I'm just confused with the limitations on the amount of times some schools allow you to take the teas test. Some schools say that you are only allowed to take the teas twice or repeat it only once and that they accept the highest score out of the two, which I understand. The part that I'm wondering about is.. if other schools state that you are allowed to take it 3 times, can you take it without it interfering with the schools that don't allow a third try? My score wasn't great the first or second try (which disappoints me to no end) but it was enough to still apply to some schools. I know some schools like Sac State allow a third try but I'm worried that if I do take it another time, it'll somehow interfere with the limit of some schools in only accepting two scores. Thanks in advance for helping me out!
