Two TEAS scores. Can I just send one?

Published

I just took the TEAS for the second time and I scored lower than I did the first time I took it. Is it possible to send just one score to Nursing schools?

most likely they will only accept the last one you took. You can always call the school being anonym. But if you have to order the test scores they will send you the 2nd one. Hey did you take the whole test do you think you can give me the parts of the test like all the parts of the math, reading, eng, science etc. parts???

I guess it may depend on your school's requirements. The school I applied to will accept whichever you chose, but I've seen some people on here say their program will only accept the last score.

I've been looking everywhere for how the TEAS is broken up, and I just stumbled over it here! Thank you so much. Where did you find this? Is this specific for the TEAS V?

This is how the TEAS V exam is broken up unless they changed it from April this year, which is when I took it. I got this info from my Individual Performance Profile which was printed off from the ATI web site and also at my college. ATI is the company that you have to sign up with before taking the TEAS V.

Thank you so much for sharing that info. I wish ATI had more info about the test on their site Like I said, I've looked high and low for an exact breakdown and I just happened to come across your post today. I wonder if it varies from test taker to test taker, or if that's pretty much the standard. Has anyone else shared their IPP with you, or on here, that you know of?

Many schools just want to see one TEAS score and they say to submit your highest. If you submit both, they will look at the most recent attempt, which in your case is lower. So, just give them the best one because that is the one that matters! And they do not let you send your best parts from different attempts, it is your best total attempt they want. That is the case in Indiana anyway.

I'm pretty sure this is how it's broken up for everyone. For each section, your score percentage is also shown once you've completed the exam.
