16mm · Dec 14, 2013

depends on your school. At my school you need at leath a 64.5% overall and 60% in each section to pass.

It really depends on the entrance requirements for your school. We have to score a 75 overall to even be considered

Each school has a different minimum. I know the program I'm in requires a minimum of 75% for you to even apply to the program, but higher counts for something. It might be worth it to study and take it again for an improved score.

Each program has their own standards as to what they'll accept as a "passing" score on the TEAS V test. My program considers a score of 62 to be "passing" so they'll only accept the first score at or above 62 as part of their criteria. So, if you took the test 4 times and got 57, 61, 62, 79, they'll only accept the 62 as passing and would count only that score for entry points criteria purposes.

So, just know the policies of the programs you're applying to. I would think that most of the time having multiple TEAS scores won't hurt your chances of getting in. Knowing/learning/abiding by the program's published (if known) rules for becoming qualified as an applicant is part of the selection process, whether they say so or not...

Jeez. Schools around here need a high 70s to be passing, but you really need in the 80s or higher to be competitive. Wish 68 was passing!!

Same around here. 70 is passing but 80's are needed in order to be considered

I think ur missing a science score to be averaged too. Your school and your advisor should be able to tell you the passing rate.

I'm in kentucky and here we don't have to take the science any more.

I guess your overall would be around 66%. Here, in California, many community colleges require 62-65% for passing. If that's the case with your college of interest, then you should be ok.
