    Trying to get into Nursing School

    NurseGirl525 replied to Melarue's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    While the Teas does test basic knowledge to think everyone fresh out if prereqs should get in the mid 90's is a little insane. I got a 78 fresh out of my prereqs. I did not have to take chemistry...
