UNF Summer 2014 BSN hopefuls

Published

Hi everyone!

With the deadline only a little over a month away, I figured we all need a place to stress, hope and worry! I just took my first stab at the TEAS and hit the average score of the past few years (335). I have a 3.9 GPA. One pre-req left. Applying for ABSN. I'm scheduled for a second TEAS attempt next month. How is everyone else doing? Drooling over stats as much as I am?? Any interview preparation plans?

So are me and Hep the only two that took the TEAS twice? Anyone else give it a go more than once? I'm really curious about this cohort's stats since they opened up the TEAS. I have a feeling the stats will stay the same even though it would seem like they'd increase

THANKS! and I didn't take it twice, although I feel as if I could have increased my score... the test is 100 dollars.... LOL and the closest testing site to me is like 2 hours away..

Oh my god, I wish I could have figured out how that was but in any case, if I only had to pay 40, I deff would have taken it over.

I only took it once but I wish I took it again. I took mine during finals week lol. I was ecstatic when I saw the percentile I scored in but realized percentage was what mattered. I thought the TEAS was also relatively unfair in the science department. I had a lot of physics questions and I have never taken physics in my life, not even in high school. I wish it was all math on the TEAS lol

Thanks for the encouragement, HellooNursh, I appreciate it! I think you're right about the interview and so hopefully it is a good fit.

I agree about the teas science! Not so much the anatomy and bio as the earth science but over all, it was my least favorite section. I only took it once btw. Maybe would have attempted again if it wasn't so expensive and if I thought my score would differ significantly.

Now every time I get an email on my phone I jump to see if it's UNF. Wow this week is going to go by even slower than the others!! I'm hoping she posts the stats on the Facebook like she did last year. These are the highest TEAS scores I've seen compared to past forums, so I'm betting the average will be higher (I hope not though lol). And yeah the science portion was so strange to me, I had questions about different kinds of rocks and other earth science stuff that was so painfully boring I didn't even try to memorize it. Mine was only $40ish to atitesting and $12 to take it at the FSU testing center.

I would be super surprised if anyone on here didn't get an interview, I'm so excited for all of us!!! Happy waiting!

To be honest with you guys, taking it twice only benefited me literally by like...points. not tens of points! I scored exactly the same on math!! I thought that was funny. It's pretty tough to increase your score unless you scored like a 50. But if you're in the 80 - 90 range you're likely to stay there...I think lol
