UTMB Spring 2012

Published

Hey Guys!

I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread for all UTMB Galveston's Spring 2012 traditional bsn applicants. Have you all started to apply yet or at least looked at the application? What do you think? How are your personal statements/testing going? If you guys have anything worth discussing please post and good luck to all!

Good luck tomorrow! Let us know how you do!

Well, I got a 75 and was happy until I called and UTMB says they go by your science score as well and I got a 54 on that section. Even though I got a 75 overall and my 54 in science is above the national average, they say I am no longer competitive because they look at the science score heavily, so now I am sad :crying2:

I'll be taking my test in the next couple of hours....fingers crossed...I'm extremely nervous!

Hope you do well on your TEAS!!!

Does anyone know what score on the science part of the TEAS is considered competitive? I think the science section is going to be the hardest for me.

Thanks!

I did horrible :chair: I think was cramming to much and worke up early and lost sleep. But I guess I need to finish ap2,micro,statistics and chemistry before taking it again.

How did you do? Now you're freaking me out. I have to take mine soon too.

Don't freak out. I just think I beat myself up about it.I studied my study guide almost a month and it was a little helpful not much. I also noticed while studying out of the teas book the book had errors itself. I called ATI and they said the revised pages are posted. I caught a lit of errors in the book. I still did poorly. I took the exams in the back of the book as well. And did fine. Im not a good test taker. My gpa is high but I'm not even going to apply cause of my teas score. I'll wait till Jan. Now I'm studying for hesi which I hear is a little easier. Good luck and I fell short on time in the math. So if u don't know it right away u can go back to it. I had to click answers the last few seconds

hey do you guys know if utmb concentrates on individual section scores on the teas or just the overall? everything was good for me on my teas except my grammar part.

Pretty sure they take everything into account...overal score l and individual area scores. The grammar, I would assume, would be less important than say science or math, but thats just me.

ok thank you. I made A's on my science and math, a B on my reading, but my grammar was not so good. However, I did fall into the competitive category overall so I hope I get accepted. I can't wait until they start reviewing applications.

I have heard from numerous alumni to be prepared to wait and wait and wait.... apparently their system takes quite a bit of time. I wish it was faster!!!! It may end up costing me over a grand because it takes so long! May have to start San Jac or COM program this fall before I even know about UTMB....

i called and was told an overall competitive score was 75-80. then on each section they said no lower than 58. i got an overall 75 but a 54 in science so i have to take it over. :crying2:
