So Frustrated!!

Published

Ugh! I took the TEAS for the second time this past weekend, and only improved my score from a 71.3% to a 75.3%! The first time I did little to no studying, the second time I studied for like 5 weeks. I just don't get why I can't do well on this test.

I am currently enrolled at GSU to finish up some pre-reqs with the hope that I would be accepted to their ACE program in spring 2013, but with that score there is no way I will get accepted above all the other applicants.

I am beginning to think I am trying for the wrong career :( My husband says I should retake it, but the deadline for the applications is Oct. 1st. I am at a total loss... should I submit my application with that low of a TEAS score?

Yea. I thought I would check and there it was. It was $33.99 to rent.

Specializes in Psychiatry.

Darn, wish I'd known that before I bought mine! :(

HiM i just took the TEAS today for 3rd time!! 1st time I got 73.3 and 2nd time 77.3. I am waiting to get my results from today and if I didn't get over 80, I am changing my major. Is's sad because I don't see myself doing anything else for rest of my life, but I can't wait until next fall. How did u do last time?

I got an 82 this last time. I was very pleased! I am sure you put yourself in the 80s!!!

Hi Jen! Congrats! I am sure you feel a great relief by getting 82. I should know my score today or tomorrow, so I am anxiously waiting! I will post my score later.

Any word on your score?

No! I am so anxious to know!!

You should be able to check on the ATI website! They post 'em within 24 hours, if I remember correctly.

Results still not on the website! I don't know which test I am using for my application.....grrr

How did you do? Surely your scores have posted by now!

Hi! Well, I didn't get what I wanted. So, I submitted my application with the TEAS acore of 77.3%...I know it's terrible :( I hope the committee looks at the whole application. I got a strong essay (I believe) and very strong recommendation letters from my chemistry professor and a doctor that I work with. So, hopefully I make it and if not I will just wait until fall 2013...grrrrr

Aww, I am sorry! That test is difficult, which is why I ended up taking it three times. I hope you get in but if not, there is always next Fall! Keep us updated! I will let everyone know when my letter comes :)
