Hello All!
I will be applying this July 31 for admission in the Spring 2018 nursing program at Wake Tech. I just wanted to start a space where we could talk about the process. I am finishing 2 classes (PSY 241 and ENG 112) and start my CNA class May 16th. It's been a lot to balance while having a full time job and kids, but doable. I think I will have about 187 points.
What about you all?

Hey! I am also applying to the spring 2018 admissions. I will fall between 181 and 187 points as well. It depends on my TEAS exam That I am taking next month. Have you taken that yet?
I also started a thread where a few other people have posted! Either way let's stay in touch through the next few months! Where are you taking psy?
I am taking PSY 241 and ENG 112 online at Wake Tech. It's going well but it still gets hard when working full time and having a family. If I get an A in both classes, I will have exactly 187. I took the TEAS and got 6 additional points. I won't bother retaking them because I won't have the time. What I'm noticing is that anyone with 172 points or more has a good chance for admission.
Yes, I literally saw the other posts about SP 18 as soon as I published my post.
Good luck to you!
We must be in the same psy class ! Well that's good atleast you already have that done. The TEAS is my only big stressor at the moment and I have been studying like a mad woman lol. If i get 6 points, i most likely wont even bother taking it again.
Yes, someone told me in a previous post tha 160 points make a you competetive, and typically 180 points are most highly accepted.
It's tough I totally hear you. I work a full time job and have been waking up at 4 am the past 4 weeks just to study. We will do this!

How do you see how many points you'll get for the prerequisites? Their website isn't like other schools.
Meeting with an advisor.
I have the sheet that they give you when they meet to let you know where you stand. When I am home later I'll try and get on and put it up here for you. The TEAS score piint are: 91 and above 20 points, 81 and above 12 points and 71 and above is 6 points.
Ok thanks!

I just turned in my application. I was hoping I would be competitive with 172 points if I can keep my B in micro. I'm kinda nervous now.
Don't be nervous. We still have a bit more time until notifications go out. If you are like me, I try not to think about it and keep myself busy. I broke out my A&P book/notes and I am going to just refresh a bit. I finished my prerequisites in December...so I have been out of study practice. Let us know how micro goes.....
All the best~
Hi ....just checking in on everyone!! What are you all doing to pass the time? I am working full time right now....but I have been really thinking about what I am going to do when I get accepted into the program. Do you all have any thoughts on working while in school...full time? Part time? No time :)
