Hello Everyone !
Anyone planning to take the TEAS at WCC to enter the Fall 2020 Program? Wanted to create this topic to exchange studying tips and ideas and just to chat with like minded individuals with the same goals. Happy Holidays !

Just took the TEAS yesterday.
I just want to take a moment to express how thankful I am that we were still able to take the exam- considering all the school closing in the Westchester area due to Covid-19.
Does anyone have an idea of when we'll get out acceptance/denial emails?

The website says April but with everything going on... not too sure
Guess it can't be helped.
What did you guys think of the test?
It was definitely very stressful! I scored an 84 so I’m a bit nervous. I took the exam back in October and scored a 70 so I’m happy I was able to bring my grade up but we’ll see .. how did you do?
I'm surprised how poorly I did on the english section. Some of the questions were seemed silly. There was one question that literally asked us to spell: recommend. (<- my phone autocorrected that for me)
I got an 81, so I'm not sure if that's enough to get in the program.
I heard in 2018, they actually accepted two students with scores under 75 because it was a down year for the averages
My score is frustrating because what happens now is out of my control. It's like- I didn't do BAD, so I can't automatically assume I'm out. But I also didn't do so well that I can expect to get in. My admission is going to almost entirely depend on how many people did worse than me.
UgH. I totally agree about the English section! Joan mentioned that they’re selecting 39 students for the fall so fingers crossed!!
Right?! It's like, how is knowing how to spell certain words going to make me a better nurse?
Conceptually, I understand the idea of the test. But there has to be a better metric for determining who should or shouldn't be a healthcare worker.
I heard Joan mention 39 students for this class as well, which I think makes it the largest nursing class in history. Hopefully that plays in our favor for getting accepted.
I'm anxiously waiting for the email. I just want to know already.
Same!
The suspense is killing me
Hey guys check your emails !
